Property Description
There is something special about a classic Emerald Isle beach cottage, and this second-row home has been enjoyed and cared for by the same family since it was built. With 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, this well-maintained second home offers beautiful ocean views and an easy coastal feel, with public ocean access just two lots away. The living room is the highlight, with four large windows and a sliding glass door opening up views of the ocean directly in front of you and stretching to the east and west. Step outside onto the large, partially covered deck to enjoy the salt air, ocean breeze, and even more of the view. When you're ready to explore beyond the beach, public sound access is located nearby on Raleigh Street, along with a small public boat launch at 13th Street, making it easy to enjoy both sides of the island. The home is being sold as-is and offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy it just as it has been, or make updates over time to create your own Emerald Isle getaway. A charming beach cottage in a great location with the views and access that make island living so special.
