WATERFRONT for FISHERMAN and BOATER'S alike on the South River.
Welcome to your own slice of coastal paradise in beautiful Beaufort. This Charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath Waterfront home offers breathtaking, unobstructed views of the South River--visible from nearly every room.

Start your mornings watching on this nearly half acre the sunrise over the S. River, and fishing off your private dock or just sit and watch the dolphins swim by. Spend afternoons boating with direct water access, and unwind in the evenings on the screened-in porch as the sun goes down. Complete with a boat lift with a limit of 10,000lb's and a new bulkhead, this property is truly designed for effortless coastal living. The River runs into the ICW, which is in view of this property!

Inside, the home features tile flooring throughout, an open and functional layout, and thoughtful upgrades including a tankless water heater, whole-house water filtration system, and cozy gas logs in the living area.

Situated on nearly half an acre, this property offers the perfect balance of privacy and outdoor space, all while being just a short drive from Beaufort's Charming Waterfront shops, and dining.

Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, weekend getaway, or investment opportunity, this waterfront gem delivers the lifestyle you've been dreaming of.
