Secret Treasure-1.5 acres- Amazing Backyard!



Welcome to Secret Treasure — the perfect getaway for families looking to reconnect, recharge, and explore Eastern North Carolina. Tucked away in a riverfront neighborhood, this hidden gem offers both comfort and adventure.

Let the kids roam free with a tree swing, and room to run, while adults unwind in the backyard oasis—outdoor BBQ and stone fireplace under the stars.

Whether you're spending quality time or setting out to explore the beauty of Eastern NC, this is your home base for it all.
Master Suite (Downstairs): King bed, cozy and private

Master Bath off of master Suite.
Upstairs Bedroom 1: Queen futon (super comfy) + 2 twin bunk beds
Full bath upstairs between two rooms for guests.

Both upstairs rooms open onto a charming second-story front porch



The galley kitchen features two ovens and a gas stovetop—perfect for cooking family meals. Just off the kitchen, a half bathroom leads into a sunny entertaining bar/sunroom area. The dining room seats up to 8 and connects seamlessly to the inviting living space. (Indoor fireplace not available for guest use.) However, the outdoor fireplace is ready for entertaining.

The fenced-in backyard is an outdoor paradise:

Large wood-burning fireplace
Gas grill & granite island
Covered seating area for relaxing or dining under the stars
Hammock for relaxing
Outdoor shower

Private front porch for watching birds or enjoying your morning coffee. A tree swings for the young and the old to enjoy—a perfect mix of freedom and fun!

Whether you're toasting s’mores by the fire, swinging under the trees, or heading out to explore the beauty of Eastern NC, Secret Treasure is your cozy, peaceful escape.
