Three bedrooms and one bathroom (plus an outdoor hot shower with privacy), each room has its own climate control, so the front of the home can be opened to the sound of waves while the back bedrooms stay cool and serene.
The deck has a table for eating, chairs for calming and still there’s room to play.
Under the home is a shaded swing to relax and read a book or wait for the (modest charcoal) grille to finish off your dinner. A few paces towards the ocean and you come to the fire pit. With fires prohibited on all public beaches, having your own private oceanfront place to roast hot dogs under the stars is a an uncommon luxury.
The Carolina Beach fishing pier is just a few homes to the North. The pier is home to tiki bar, live music, and a modest restaurant.
The access to Freeman Park is also just two blocks away! With a pass you can take your 4 Wheel Drive car onto the pristine sands, set up chairs, fish and appreciate the vistas. Off season fires are allowed in Freeman Park.
There are coffee stores, eateries, cafés, bicycle units, surfboard units, surfing schools, live music venues, the boardwalk, the famed Britts Donuts... The list goes on and on, and all of these things are within a short bicycle ride of the home. You could also rent a golf cart! That makes even grocery shopping fun.
The home is oceanfront, with an unobstructed view north and south also. Do note that there are huge boulders for purposes of keeping down erosion (as seen in the photos). The boulders are between the yard and the beach, so to access the wider sandy beach, guests can either walk through/across the rocks which is simple as long as your balance is not compromised by age or an injury. Or you can walk two tons to the south and use the public access. You can also drive to the public access or use the supplied beach wagon.
