Why this home stands out
Built in 2026, this 2,540-square-foot home gives you six true bedrooms under one roof — a configuration that's genuinely rare at any price point. Whether you need dedicated home offices, guest rooms, or space for a large or multigenerational family, the floor plan delivers flexibility that older, smaller homes simply can't match. New construction also means current building codes, modern systems, and a blank slate that's entirely yours to personalize.
SOUTH MILLS LANDING and the South Mills real estate market
South Mills Landing sits in the heart of South Mills, a small community in Camden County, North Carolina — just south of the Virginia state line and the Great Dismal Swamp. Life here moves at a pace that's hard to find this close to a major metro area. The neighborhood itself is a newer residential development, which means well-kept streets, fresh infrastructure, and neighbors who are largely in the same chapter of life. Camden County is known for its rural character, low density, and genuine sense of community. You're not in the middle of a city, and that's the whole point. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate the proximity to the Dismal Swamp Canal Trail and the broader natural corridor that defines this part of northeastern North Carolina. For everyday needs, the Virginia Beach and Chesapeake corridors are a straightforward drive north, putting major retail, dining, and services well within reach without sacrificing the peace of coming home to South Mills Landing.
What's nearby
Day-to-day life at 225 Myrtle Lane keeps things simple. Hunt Brothers Pizza is just 0.3 miles away — a quick trip when dinner plans change at the last minute. South Mills itself is a small community, so for broader shopping, dining, and services you'll head north into Chesapeake or Virginia Beach, both accessible via US-17. The Dismal Swamp Canal and its trail system are close by, making weekend mornings easy for walkers, cyclists, and kayakers. Camden County's rural setting means you're never far from open land, water access, and the kind of quiet that's increasingly hard to come by.
