Why this home stands out

The 1989 build puts 407 Driftwood Drive in a generation of homes that landed on generous lots before land got expensive. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and 1,870 square feet give you real room to spread out. Elizabeth City is one of the most affordable ownership markets on the North Carolina coast. That combination — space, price point, and a waterfront city — is harder to find than it looks.

GLEN COVE and the Elizabeth City real estate market

Driftwood Drive sits in a quiet residential pocket of Elizabeth City. Streets here are lined with single-family homes from the late 1980s and early 1990s. Lots tend to be spacious, and the pace on the block is easy. Elizabeth City wraps around the Pasquotank River, and that waterfront identity shapes everything about daily life here. Downtown is compact and walkable, with local restaurants, coffee shops, and a marina that draws boaters from up and down the Intracoastal Waterway. The city is the commercial hub of Northeastern North Carolina, so you get real grocery stores, medical offices, and retail without driving to a bigger metro. Getting around is simple — most errands take under fifteen minutes by car. The region also connects easily to the Outer Banks to the east and to the Hampton Roads metro to the north via the Virginia border.
