Description
Located in the Royall Oaks section of gated Dolphin Ridge, 9808 Clarendon Drive offers a rare combination of soundfront living and deeded access to the community's private beach walkway, which has been recently updated with new decking, showers, and a bench. This fully furnished 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home sits on a full acre and is designed to take full advantage of its natural surroundings, with expansive views of the water and marsh visible from nearly every room. The exterior is finished in durable composite siding, and recent updates include hurricane-rated windows throughout, a new irrigation system, and a roof replaced in 2020. Inside, the open-concept layout features maple flooring, soft neutral tones, and generous natural light. The living area flows seamlessly into a casual dining space and a clean, functional kitchen with granite countertops and white cabinetry—ideal for relaxed everyday living or hosting guests. Each bedroom offers comfort and privacy, while the four bathrooms provide flexibility for family and visitors. Outdoor living is a defining feature of this home, with multiple decks, a screened porch, and upper balconies that overlook the lush maritime landscape. A private boardwalk winds from the back of the home through the greenery to an upgraded gazebo and private dock, offering direct access to the sound for kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply enjoying quiet evenings by the water. A golf cart is included for convenient trips to the beach access just down the street. Located in a quiet, established neighborhood known for its natural beauty and community feel, this home offers a thoughtful blend of comfort, coastal lifestyle, and long-term value—ideal as a primary residence, vacation home, or investment in one of Emerald Isle's most desirable settings.
