Marina, Pond & ICW Views at 855 Cannonsgate Drive
Imagine starting your morning with coffee on a front deck that looks out over the marina, then ending the day on a covered back porch with the Intracoastal Waterway and a pond in front of you. That's the rhythm at 855 Cannonsgate Drive, a 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath home in the gated Cannonsgate community of Newport, where the water is part of the view from nearly every level.
A Ground Floor Built for Entertaining
The ground floor opens with a spacious flex room that includes a wet bar and a full bath, with direct access to a large covered patio. It's an easy setup for hosting, whether that means game day, a gathering after time on the water, or simply extra living space. The garage adds some practical upgrades of its own: an on-demand water heater, an EV charger, and cabinetry, along with hot and cold water outside by the garage door for rinsing off gear.
A Main Level Made for Gathering
Palladio Diamond hardwood floors flow throughout the home, and the first floor takes full advantage of the open floor plan. The kitchen has quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, and GE Café appliances, including a gas stove, a microwave, a dishwasher, and a refrigerator. A large island with generous storage underneath anchors the space, and a double-door pantry sits just off the kitchen, next to the dining area. In the living room, a shiplap fireplace and a coffered ceiling set the tone, and a door leads out to a covered porch with ICW and pond views.
A First-Floor Guest Suite and Front Porch Views
The first floor also has a guest bedroom with a private ensuite and a half bath, and the bedroom opens to the front deck, which makes a good spot for that morning coffee with marina views. The inviting front porch entry sets the tone from the moment you arrive.
An Upstairs Primary Suite with Water Views
The second floor is home to the primary suite, which has a walk-in closet and a private ensuite with a dual vanity and a tiled shower. The office area has ICW and pond views, which makes it one of the more pleasant places to work in the house. Two additional guest bedrooms share a guest bath, and one of them has views of the ICW. The laundry area is also on this level, and a conditioned attic adds storage.
Details That Make Daily Life Easier
An elevator provides access to every level, which makes carrying groceries and welcoming guests simple. Solid-core doors, premium fixtures, and ceiling fans run throughout. Recent upgrades include a black aluminum fence in the backyard by Fences Unlimited, custom blinds and shades by Blinds Unlimited, linen curtains, and a custom hall tree.
Cannonsgate Amenities on the Water
Cannonsgate adds a full lineup of amenities to the home itself: a community pool, a clubhouse, tennis courts, a boat ramp, a marina, a kayak launch, and a pier and dock, all behind gated entry. With access to the waters of Bogue Sound, this is a community that makes time outside easy, and it's close to everything the Crystal Coast has to offer. For buyers who want space, water views, and a resort-style setting in Newport, 855 Cannonsgate Drive delivers on all three.
