Why this home stands out
Built in 2026, 113 Croatan Rd is one of the freshest addresses inside Albemarle Plantation — a private, amenity-rich community on the Albemarle Sound. At 1,601 square feet, the three-bedroom, two-bath layout delivers an efficient, modern floor plan without the upkeep burden of a larger estate home. You get a gated community, a championship golf course, a full-service marina, and waterfront dining — all without leaving the neighborhood.
ALBEMARLE PLANTATION and the Hertford real estate market
Albemarle Plantation is one of coastal North Carolina's most distinctive planned communities. Tucked along the southern shore of the Albemarle Sound in Perquimans County, the development pairs a private gated entrance with a championship golf course, deep-water marina, tennis courts, and community pools — amenities that would feel at home in a resort setting. The surrounding town of Hertford, the county seat, carries genuine small-town character: a historic downtown, a drawbridge that's one of the oldest in the state, and a pace of life that draws people from larger metros looking to exhale. Perquimans County sits at the heart of North Carolina's Inner Banks, and the natural landscape — wide sounds, pine forests, and open farmland — defines the backdrop here. For buyers comparing homes for sale in Hertford NC, this address sits inside one of the area's most recognized planned communities, giving it a profile that stands apart from the surrounding rural market.
