About this home

WELCOME TO 'SEA SMILES' with OCEAN AND MARSH VIEWS! This remarkable 3rd row Oak Island home is a nature lover's dream edged with native junipers for daily bird song and a touch of privacy. See the Atlantic Ocean from the top deck or watch egrets wade through the marsh from open and covered back spaces. Only a 3-minute walk to the beach! Recent upgrades include a new roof, entirely new decking, new LVP flooring throughout, fresh paint, and a new HVAC system. The covered front porch leads you to a sunlit, vaulted family room with fireplace, a modern kitchen with custom cabinetry and island, plus a delightful, enclosed sunroom and covered deck for dining, grilling, and more coastal views. Relax in the Master Suite with a spa-like tile shower just off the kitchen, plus a convenient laundry area nearby. A quaint reading loft is at the top of an open staircase along with two more bedrooms - one with private access to the top deck for incredible stargazing over the ocean, and one with private access to the peaceful marsh side. Need more room? Venture down to the bottom floor to find a fantastic flex space with loads of room for watching the game or shooting a game of pool. What's not to love about an impressive wet bar and island, full bath, and a potential guest room or office?! Lots of storage for beach toys and bicycles plus an enclosed outdoor shower. Excellent location close to Middleton Avenue for day trips to Historic Southport and Wilmington. This property is sure to bring about nothing but SMILES!
