Morning coffee on the porch, a southeast breeze off the Neuse, and an evening gathered beside the fire—life here moves easily between beautiful interiors and the open air. Designed by Eric Moser, this distinctive home in the Village of Oriental pairs gracious Southern architecture with expansive river views, all without the responsibility of maintaining a riverfront bulkhead. French doors invite you onto covered porches, while tall windows and transoms fill the rooms with natural light. Heart pine floors and thoughtful millwork bring warmth and character throughout. A two-sided fireplace connects the living room and covered side porch, offering the pleasure of a fireside gathering indoors or out. Settle in with the river in view, slip away to the separate study with a good book, or welcome friends for an evening that flows naturally from the dining room to the porch. The kitchen keeps everyone connected, with premium appliances, a welcoming breakfast area, and a generous pantry offering room for everyday essentials and entertaining supplies. Whether you're preparing a quiet supper or hosting a full table, the setting encourages you to linger. On cooler evenings, move the conversation to the porch, where the brick fireplace makes staying outside a little longer especially inviting. Upstairs, three bedrooms offer comfortable retreats. The primary suite opens onto the upper balcony, where you can greet the morning over the water or unwind as boats pass across the horizon. Separate guest quarters above the garage, complete with a full bath, give visitors a place of their own and offer flexibility for a private workspace or creative retreat. A main-level laundry room, covered carport, and one-car garage add everyday convenience. With the Neuse as your backdrop and the charm of Oriental surrounding you, this is a home for porch conversations, unhurried meals, and the simple pleasure of watching the water. Beautiful custom details throughout.
