Reelin' In The Years

''Reelin' in the Years'' is one of three charming cottages on Lot 62 in the Arlington Place neighborhood, offering the best of both worlds: a relaxing coastal getaway when you're in town and rental income when you're away. This fully furnished Outfitter's Cottage blends rustic character with modern convenience, including super-fast Wi-Fi when you want to stay connected--and a peaceful setting that may tempt you to unplug. One of only nine cottages surrounding the copper-topped kayak center at the headwaters of Mill Creek, this home is just steps from the kayak center and dock, with easy access to Mill Creek and the Neuse River beyond. Enjoy quiet mornings on the wraparound front porch or unwind on the back deck and watch the sunset over Mill Creek. Inside, the cottage opens to inviting living spaces, a full kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a dining room with neat trim details, and a half bath. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms, a full bath, and a convenient laundry closet. Reclaimed tobacco barn floors on the main level add warmth and durability--ideal for a rental property--and the palette of coastal blue furnishings makes you feel like you're by the water, even when you're inside. Outside, board-and-batten siding and metal roof accents add to the cottage's timeless appeal. The front porch connects to the back porch of the neighboring cottage, with a divider providing separation. Owners and guests enjoy full access to Arlington Place amenities, including the clubhouse, pool, sport courts, parks, fire pits, trails, boardwalks, boat ramp, day docks, river beach, river pier, Pintail Lake, lake beach and more. Annual dues include POA dues, landscaping, the shared septic electric fee, and the cottage reserve fee. See the attached covenants for ownership structure and additional details.
