Property Description
Overflowing with charm and coastal character, this inviting 3-bedrm, 2-bath home captures the essence of relaxed island living from the moment you arrive. Located in one of Oak Island's most welcoming neighborhoods, you're just a short 7-minute stroll to the beach & steps from Publix, restaurants, ice cream, a fishing pier, and the ICW boat ramp. Even in the midst of so many public areas, it remains a quiet street and property. The home sits on a spacious double lot and includes a cozy main residence, a climate-controlled detached two-car garage, perfect for a workshop or studio, and a private 336-sq ft mother-in-law suite with its own full bath-ideal for guests, a home office, or a peaceful retreat. Inside the main home, vaulted ceilings and ceiling fans in every room create a breezy, comfortable atmosphere, while the shady screened-in porch and welcoming covered front porch invite you to slow down and savor the coastal air. The well-designed floor plan offers both functionality and flow, and the large yards provide a mix of sun and shade for outdoor enjoyment. A back patio is perfect for grilling and dining under the trees, and a spacious outdoor shower with hot and cold water makes beach days even better. The entire property is enclosed by a 6-foot privacy fence, offering a secluded oasis filled with birdsong and mature trees. Currently operating as a successful VRBO, this home has proven rental income (2024-$45K, 2025-35K so far) and is being offered furnished-with just a few exceptions-so you can begin enjoying your beach lifestyle immediately. With two driveways for ample guest parking, a shed for garden tools and beach gear, and one level living, this home is as practical as it is inviting. Surrounded by great neighbors, it's the perfect weekend getaway or full-time residence. Whether you're looking to create your own paradise or simply enjoy the one that's already here, this is your chance to own a piece of Oak Island's magic!
