Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This for-sale canal-front residential homesite offers 1.42 acres in the Silver Acres Subdivision. The property is characterized by mature trees and natural surroundings, with a creek along the rear boundary that is described as Coffee Creek. The listing notes septic permit approval to support a three-bedroom home, providing a clear path toward building a custom residence designed around the setting.

The site is positioned in a quiet, established waterfront community near the Village of Oriental, identified as the “Sailing Capital of the Carolinas.” The property is described as being just off Broad Creek, with nearby access to boating destinations. The canal-front placement and the rear-boundary creek connection support water access for small watercraft such as kayaks and paddleboards.

For buyers looking to build, the approved three-bedroom septic plan and the water-oriented setting make this an appropriate fit for a custom coastal home. It also appears well-suited for future residents who want practical proximity to local marina access, with Marine Craft Marina and Boatworks described as within a short walk or bike ride. The overall configuration supports a private waterfront feel while keeping boating facilities within easy reach.

Key Highlights

  • 1.42‑acre canal‑front homesite in the Silver Acres Subdivision, just outside the Village of Oriental
  • Water access via Coffee Creek along the rear boundary, providing a launch point for kayaks, paddleboards, and small watercraft
  • Close to deep‑water Broad Creek with direct access to the Neuse River and the Intracoastal Waterway
