Property Description
A Private Crystal Coast Waterfront Sanctuary
Hidden at the end of a quiet waterfront peninsula, River Haven is a rare private coastal retreat surrounded by protected marshland, towering trees, wide river views, and extraordinary wildlife.
Though this property feels worlds away, Atlantic Beach, Beaufort, Morehead City, waterfront dining, shopping, marinas, and everyday conveniences are all just minutes away.
Set on approximately 11.25 private waterfront acres with more than 2,300 feet of navigable waterfront along the Newport River and Hull Swamp, River Haven offers a combination of privacy, protected natural beauty, and coastal convenience that is increasingly difficult to find along the North Carolina coast.
More than 22,000 acres of surrounding marshland are protected through a land trust and can never be built upon, preserving the stillness, expansive views, and natural setting that make the property so special.
The Ultimate in Privacy
Few know this one-of-a-kind property exists and all who visit are mesmerized by the setting. Enjoy daily wildlife sightings where bald eagles soar overhead, and herons move quietly along the shoreline. Deer, otters, osprey, wild turkey, and seasonal waterfowl are part of everyday life here. River Haven was designed for slowing down, enjoying the outdoors, and embracing the beauty of coastal living.
No HOA
Positioned behind the gates of a sought-after community of luxury homes, River Haven was the original developer's property. It is excluded from HOA restrictions, rules and fees.
Location, Location, Location
River Haven offers the rare ability to enjoy a peaceful waterfront setting without sacrificing convenience.
Approximately 8 miles to Atlantic Beach and the Crystal Coast beaches
4 minutes to shopping, dining, healthcare, and conveniences in Morehead City
Approximately 34 minutes to Coastal Carolina Regional Airport (EWN)
Future completion of Interstate 42 is expected to reduce drive times from Raleigh to the Crystal Coast to approximately two hours
Easy access to marinas, waterfront dining, golf, beaches, and outdoor recreation throughout the region
Main House
The furnished main residence, spanning approximately 4,000 square feet, is oriented toward the water and designed to embrace the surrounding landscape.
Originally built in 1983, the home has undergone extensive renovations and upgrades over the past eight years, including a large, new designer kitchen, updated baths, new flooring, ceilings, expanded decking, and significant electrical, wiring, and plumbing improvements.
Large windows and expansive decks invite river views, natural light, and coastal breezes into the home's open concept design.
Warm wood finishes, reclaimed heart pine floors, woodburning fireplaces, and generous living areas create a comfortable retreat atmosphere equally suited for everyday living or hosting family and friends after a day on the water.
Bamboo Cottage
Set apart from the main house, a private guest cottage rests quietly along the water's edge, a rare and highly desirable feature.
With its own full bath and river frontage, river pier and boat tie-up area, it offers a sense of retreat for guests or the potential for a truly special short-term rental experience, something seldom found on waterfront properties of this caliber.

600 sq. ft. heated and cooled area that is ideal for a game room or for conversion to an apartment.
