BEAUTIFUL UPDATES AT 5423 Emerald Drive This retreat offers the kind of coastal lifestyle people come to Emerald Isle searching for -- ocean views, easy beach access, space to gather, and proven rental income to help make it all possible. Located just three rows from the ocean, the public beach access with golf cart parking is right around the corner, making beach days effortless. The sound-side boat ramp is nearby, and the home sits directly along the Emerald Path for biking, walking, and exploring the island with ease. Inside, this four bedroom, bonus room, three bath home was designed for both comfort and connection. Two spacious living areas provide flexibility for guests, while vaulted ceilings and expansive windows fill the home with natural light. The kitchen features granite countertops, updated cabinetry, and refreshed tile, all opening into bright gathering spaces that feel relaxed and welcoming. A newly tiled fireplace adds warmth and coastal character, and new LVP flooring, fresh paint, some new windows, and beautiful new siding give the home a crisp, updated feel throughout. The lower level offers an additional lounge space complete with a wet bar, beverage fridge, and microwave -- perfect for hosting family and friends after a day on the water. Step outside to your private backyard retreat featuring multiple decks, a freshly resurfaced saltwater pool, a hot tub, and fresh landscaping that enhances the outdoor living experience. Parking accommodates three to four vehicles, with room for a boat trailer as well! Whether you are looking for a full-time residence, a second home, or an investment property with established income history, this Emerald Isle retreat delivers location, updates, and the coastal lifestyle buyers want.
