About This Home

As of May 2026

116 Sunset Drive is far more than meets the eye. Its locational charm is subtle, a short drive from the gate at the entrance of Colington Harbor, to the first available water access. With it's back turned to the street, this home is focused on the dynamics of living on the water. Pull your car up to park and leave the streets and the word behind. Inside this cottage, you have what you need; simple, clean, efficient and comfortable. Open floorplan kitchen/living room combination, coupled with the living area of the covered screen porch give you the space to recreate and relax. Three bedrooms give you the opportunity sacrifice one for a home office with a view down the entire canal and the sunset on the water tells you it is time to clock out. This charming waterfront home is everything you ever need to live the OBX lifestyle. If you have a four-legged friend, the beautiful fenced in yard has been an amazing upgrade to enhance Fido's lifestyle as well. The waterfront access in your back yard easily takes you and your boat to the intra-coastal waterway from Maine to Florida, or explore the vast Albemarle Sound to Edenton in the west. Of course, you can stay put in the backyard, on canalfront deck, and watch the sunsets reflecting on the water, without going anywhere. Colington Harbour provides a wealth of community amenities including a spacious soundside park and playground, a boat ramp, kayak launch, slip rentals and more. Join the optional Yacht and Racquet Club to enjoy the community pool, tennis and clubhouse. The seller has made significant investments to the home, landscaping, fence, dock/deck to make sure your lifestyle remains low maintenance and low go forward investment. There is ample space underneath the home to store all your toys or design your own recreational area. With partial furnishings available, this home is turn key and awaiting your personal touches and possessions.
