Where Home and Water Stay Connected

At 143 Riggs Creek Drive, the relationship between home and water shapes the entire experience. The raised home rests beside protected Riggs Creek, with interior spaces that feel warm, connected, and comfortably suited to everyday life. Wood floors, abundant windows, and a stone fireplace bring character to the main living areas, while the one-level floor plan keeps daily routines uncomplicated. Outside, the transition from house to creek unfolds through spaces designed for time in the open air. Practical features provide room for vehicles, storage, and changing needs, allowing the home to support both quiet daily living and extended stays near the water.


PROTECTED RIGGS CREEK

The Water Is Part of the Day

Here, the creek is not simply a view beyond the house. The screened porch and open deck create places to sit above the shoreline, while the private dock provides direct access to navigable water. Protected Riggs Creek offers a quieter connection to coastal life, with access toward the Bay River and Pamlico Sound when it is time to venture farther. The water remains present whether the day calls for heading out or staying close to home.

A Rhythm Shaped by the Creek

Life Moves Differently by the Water

Mornings can begin on the screened porch as the creek comes into view. Later, the private dock invites fishing,
launching, or an unhurried pause at the water’s edge. Evenings settle naturally into the home’s connected gathering
spaces, where conversation can move easily between the kitchen, dining area, and living room.

Highlights
  • Screened porch mornings
  • Time at the water’s edge
  • Fishing from the private dock
  • Easy flow between gathering spaces
  • A quiet protected-creek setting
