About This Home

As of July 2025

SELLERS OFFERING $5,000 CREDIT to use towards closing costs, lower interest rate and/or price reduction! Welcome to 137 Dances Bay, a beautifully designed and meticulously maintained custom home perfectly situated on a nearly 1/2 acre lot with canal access and serene views of Little River! Close enough to the heart of Elizabeth City for easy access to entertainment, shopping and restaurants yet far enough away to enjoy the relaxing views and sounds of nature. Step inside from the welcoming rocking chair front porch to a versatile main level featuring a large living room with cathedral ceilings and cozy fireplace, spacious kitchen with a formal dining room and well-designed home office. The 1st floor primary suite features a recently updated primary bath and walk-in closet. Upstairs you'll find plenty of space in 2 large bedrooms with an additional room having endless options. Who gets the room with sunset views over the water?! Heading onto the back screened porch and deck, you're just steps away from your own private boat slip and a quick paddle down the canal to Little River. Welcome home!
