RARE CHICAHAUK HOME JUST THREE ROWS FROM THE OCEAN! Built in 2019 and situated on approximately half an acre, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers 2,648 square feet in one of Southern Shores most desirable communities. Mature live oaks, natural landscaping and community open space to the east provide added privacy, while multiple beach accesses are just a short walk away.
