Why this home stands out
New construction in 2026 means everything — roof, systems, appliances, finishes — starts at zero miles. You get three full baths across 2,087 square feet, which gives every bedroom real breathing room. The lot sits in a calm pocket of Elizabeth City, yet a restaurant and a fitness facility are a short walk away. That combination of fresh build and walkable convenience is genuinely hard to find at this price point in Pasquotank County.
PELICAN POINTE NC and the Elizabeth City real estate market
555 Watercrest Circle sits in a newer residential pocket of Elizabeth City, North Carolina. The streets here are quiet, and the homes around it reflect the same era of construction — clean lines, attached garages, and well-kept lots. It has the feel of a neighborhood still finding its rhythm, which means you get in early. Elizabeth City itself is a small, historic waterfront city on the Pasquotank River. Downtown is compact and walkable, with local restaurants, coffee shops, and a marina that draws boaters from across the region. The city sits right on the Virginia–North Carolina border, which makes it a genuine crossroads. US-17 and US-158 both pass through, connecting you north toward the Hampton Roads metro and south toward the Outer Banks. Anyone comparing homes for sale in Elizabeth City will notice that new construction at this square footage is still relatively rare inside the city limits. Pasquotank County handles local services, and the city government is active in downtown revitalization efforts.

For different buyers
Base commute and VA loan notes
NSA Northwest Annex is about 43 minutes away, and the USCG MWR Gym is literally 0.4 miles from the front door.

For first-time buyers
A 2026 build removes the biggest worry for first-time buyers — unexpected repair costs. Everything is under warranty and up to current code. Three full baths across 2,087 square feet gives you more space than most entry-level options in Pasquotank County. VA loan financing is also an option worth exploring if you qualify, and it can change the math on a new-construction purchase significantly.
