Private 2-Bed Home on .79-Acre Lot Near Crystal Coast
What sets this Beaufort property apart is its yard more than its footprint: a generous .79-acre parcel with two separate fenced areas and the practical freedom of no HOA. The lot is large enough to store a boat or RV, offers room for gardening or backyard projects, and includes exterior buildings wired with electricity for tools or hobby space. A new chicken coop is available by separate purchase for buyers who want a touch of homestead convenience.
Inside the 884-square-foot home, an open living area is finished with easy-care LVP flooring that runs throughout and creates a cohesive, low-maintenance interior. The kitchen is practical and characterful — a farmhouse sink, broad work surfaces and an arrangement that keeps the cook connected to the main living space. The single bathroom reinforces that same farmhouse detail with a complementary sink and thoughtful fixtures.
Storage and utility are strengths here: an oversized 1.5-car garage provides more than single-car capacity and the property includes wired outbuildings plus washer hookup and A/C. Two distinct fenced yards make the layout ideal for pets, a secure play area, or splitting garden and leisure space. The property's scale and flexibility make it attractive to downsizers, full-time residents wanting space, or seasonal owners who bring boats and toys.
Location balances privacy with coastal access. You're a short drive from downtown Beaufort, Morehead City, and the beaches of the Crystal Coast — so weekend water access, dining, and boating are within easy reach while the quiet country setting remains intact. Practical documents (including a road maintenance agreement) are already available, simplifying ownership in this rural-but-connected pocket of Carteret County.
This listing is positioned for buyers who want functional, move-in-ready living on a larger-than-typical lot. With modest square footage and a strong outdoor footprint, the home presents opportunities for small upgrades that can significantly increase both comfort and resale appeal. For anyone seeking space, convenience, and very near-coastal access without an HOA, 200 Bell Creek Drive deserves a look.

A factual market snapshot around 200 Bell Creek Dr.
Local MLS metrics were not included in the research provided, so this analysis uses the listing’s valuation data and observable demand drivers. The listing’s valuation midpoint of $225,000 and a price-per-square-foot figure of $255 position this 2-bed, 1-bath single-family home competitively within an affordable coastal segment. The confidence level on the estimate (0.65) suggests moderate model certainty—useful as a benchmark when comparing recent sales. Homes on larger lots with no HOA, room for boat/RV parking, and wired outbuildings typically attract a mix of buyers here: retirees seeking low-maintenance yards, second-home buyers who need storage for toys, and investors looking for steady rental demand near the Crystal Coast. Without current days-on-market or inventory counts from local MLS, it’s hard to declare a strict buyer’s or seller’s market; however, properties that combine price under $250K with useful outdoor space often move quickly when priced right. Ask your agent for up-to-the-minute local inventory and DOM to refine timing and negotiation strategy.
