About this home
Wake up to the sound of the waves and enjoy sweeping ocean views from this classic 4-bedroom, 3-bath oceanfront retreat on Holden Beach. Lovingly maintained and never rented, this home is now ready for new memories. A spacious floor plan offers two living areas, bamboo flooring throughout (no carpet!), and a cozy touch of shiplap in the living room. Step outside and savor both sunrises over the ocean and sunsets over the marsh from your choice of a large covered oceanfront deck or the breezy marsh-side porch. With private beach access directly from the deck, your toes are in the sand in seconds. After a day at the beach, rinse off in one of the two outdoor showers, then relax in the shaded under-house area, perfect for grilling, games, or casual gatherings. Practical updates include a metal roof (2021), reverse osmosis water filter under kitchen sink and connected to the ice maker and garage storage. Parking is plentiful with spaces for up to 10 vehicles between the garage, driveway, and under-house area. All this in a prime location just steps to the Holden Beach pier, general store, ice cream, and local shops. This home is an ideal coastal getaway — whether kept as a family retreat or offered as a vacation rental, it's a smart investment with lifestyle appeal for everyone.
