Welcome to this charming ranch-style home in the well-established Tanglewood community! Offering over 1,600 square feet of living space, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom has been modestly updated while exuding timeless charm throughout. A spacious family room sets the tone with a cozy brick wood-burning fireplace and direct access to an expansive back deck. The kitchen opens to the dining area and includes a convenient washer and dryer closet. The large primary suite features its own private bathroom, while two additional bedrooms share a full hall bath. Outside, the fenced backyard provides ample space for pets, play, or gardening. A detached one-car garage offers endless potential as a workshop, mancave, or storage solution, and the oversized driveway ensures plenty of parking for guests, trailers, or even a boat. Updates to note: newer roof and newer HVAC installed in 2022! Located just off Masonboro Loop and College Road, you'll enjoy quick access to shopping, dining, boat ramps, and more--all with the freedom of no HOA restrictions.
