Downtown-Adjoining 3BR Home Steps from Taylor’s Creek
You can tell this house was sited for convenience the moment you arrive — 103 Laurel Lane sits minutes from downtown Beaufort and the briny tang of Taylor’s Creek is an ever-present reminder that the waterfront is within easy reach. The home's mid-century footprint (built in 1978) has been modernized in thoughtful stages: new carpet and updated flooring, stainless-steel appliances in an eat-in kitchen, and fresh finishes that make the house feel current without masking its original proportions.
Step inside to two distinct living areas that make hosting effortless — one room for quiet evenings and a larger family room for gatherings. The eat-in kitchen anchors the home, and practical touches such as in-unit laundry and central A/C are already in place. Three bedrooms share a full bath, with an additional half bath for guests; the layout suits a full-time family, a beach-adjacent second home, or an investor seeking strong rental demand in a walkable coastal town.
Outside, the fenced backyard provides privacy for pets and play, and the large two-car garage offers ample storage or a workshop zone. The lot feels generous for a downtown-adjacent parcel, giving you outdoor space without the upkeep of acreage. Because much of the heavy lifting on updates has been completed, the house arrives move-in ready and positioned to capture Beaufort’s year-round appeal.
Location is the real headline: walk to downtown’s shops and waterfront promenades, hop in the car for regional beaches and sound-side boating, or make this your low-maintenance lock-and-leave. Whether you’re buying for lifestyle, income, or future resale, the combination of proximity to Taylor’s Creek and the recent interior updates create a compelling package at $450,000.

A factual market snapshot around 103 Laurel Ln.
This listing is competitively positioned against Redfin’s valuation midpoint of $450,000 (estimate range $432k–$468k) and a price-per-square-foot benchmark near $292. In Beaufort, single-family homes within walking distance of downtown and the waterfront consistently attract attention from both buyers seeking primary residences and second-home purchasers. Inventory in small coastal towns tends to be tighter than in inland markets, which supports steady demand for turnkey houses like this one. For buyers, the current price aligns with market estimates and represents a reasonable entry point into downtown-adjacent real estate; for sellers and investors, properties with recent updates and garage/fenced-yard amenities are among the better-performing segments. Prospective buyers should consult the local MLS for up-to-the-day metrics such as current inventory and average days on market, but the valuation data here indicates this home is priced to reflect its location and recent improvements.
