Large, very private waterfront lot with a big waterview of Bay River. This lot has over 500 linear feet of frontage on Bay River facing west & north. The home site is near the NE corner of the lot & provides a great waterview to the NW & West. It also provides a location that protects the waterside of the home from the North & NorthEast winds & favors the beautiful sunsets, The lot has a mature pine tree cover that gives a great sense of overall privacy &, with minimal cutting has left just a reasonable amount of natural grass coverage on the lot surrounding the homesite. Bay River is among the best waterways in coastal North Carolina. It extends approx 15 miles from Pamlico Sound to the west to Bayboro. Due to its main channel running east and west, with many, long side creeks, it affords more protectioin from winds than the larger and more open Sound and Neuse River, therby giving more enjoyable boating days. Bay River offers excellent fishing, shrimping, crabbing, hunting (great duck hunting) and all manner of boating activities. Further upriver individuals have built and sailed boats up to almost 80' on Bay River. It is more tranquil than Pamlico Sound and Neuse River and, with the great waterview to the west offers a great homesetting on the water.
Bay River connects directly to Pamlico Sound, Neuse River and the ICW with no bridges. The mouth of Bay River is approx 6 miles to the East, and from there it is 8 miles SW to Oriental (Sailing Capitol of NC); 12 miles from Beaufort and the beaches, and 31 miles across the Sound to Ocracoke, a boating and cruising paradise. The lot has a septic system approved near the homesite, and, in addition a remote septic site (lot 2A). This owner's purchase was the first sale in the 92ac tract of Woods at Bell Point. The covenants filed with that purchase requires that the entire 92 ac remain residential in nature and also requires minimum 10 ac lot sizes
