Quick question: Are you busy house hunting? If so, take a breather and daydream of a coastal Carolina locale. Imagine it’s a peaceful Saturday morning. You’re rocking in a comfy chair on your front porch. As you gaze upon your lush lawn, a chipper bird sings from the nearby tall trees. Just across the way, a delicate butterfly swoops around the shapely shrubs and flourishing flowers. Along the quiet street, a friendly neighbor walks over to say hello.

With an assignment to Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, you can have a dreamy setting with this MilitaryByOwner Swansboro, North Carolina listing.
