Welcome to your Carolina Beach (aka, "Pleasure Island") getaway, where the sound of waves, ocean breezes, and thoughtfully designed spaces create the perfect backdrop for your vacation. Just a 5-minute walk to the ocean, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home is ideal for families and groups looking to enjoy sun-filled beach days and relaxed coastal evenings.
Start your morning with coffee on the top deck, where ocean views stretch toward the horizon. Spend afternoons grilling fresh seafood in the spacious backyard, with plenty of room for dining and games. After a day in the sun, unwind on the screened porch, a peaceful retreat for an evening cocktail or a quiet moment with a book.
Inside, the open-concept layout makes gathering easy, whether you're cooking in the fully equipped kitchen, playing board games in the living room, or sharing a meal around the dining table. When it’s time to rest, the primary suites offer private escapes—one with a deep soaking tub for the ultimate relaxation.
Living Room
As you step inside, you’re welcomed into a bright and airy living space designed for connection and comfort. The cozy, sectional sofa invites you to lay back and relax after a day at the beach, whether you’re streaming a movie on the large smart TV, listening to your favorite music using our XM Radio stereo receiver, or playing one of the many board games available for a cozy night in. Natural light fills the space, and easy access to the outdoor decks lets you seamlessly transition between indoor lounging and fresh ocean air.
Kitchen and Dining
Cooking here is a pleasure, with a fully stocked gourmet kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, ample counter space, gorgeous concrete counters, a beautiful wood island, and all the essentials you need to prepare everything from quick breakfasts to family feasts. The dining table and stools at the wood island provide the perfect space to gather for homemade meals or takeout from one of Carolina Beach’s many local restaurants. The open layout keeps everyone connected, and when the weather is just right, take your meal out to the screened porch and dine al fresco.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
Each bedroom is designed with rest and relaxation in mind, ensuring that everyone in your group has a peaceful place to retreat.
Primary Suite #1:
(Second Floor Primary BR/BA): A private escape with a super comfortable king bed, an en-suite spa-like bathroom with dual showers, and a deep soaking tub—the perfect way to unwind after a long day in the sun. This suite has direct access to the second floor balcony, which provides a view of the ocean as well as the bustling main street of Ocean Boulevard!

Outdoor Spaces:
Step outside and find plenty of spaces to soak up the fresh air and coastal charm.
The top, upper deck (accessible from 2nd floor primary suite or Guest BR #3) offers an ocean view making it the perfect spot for your morning coffee or sunset drinks.
The spacious, grassy backyard is ideal for family cookouts, with a large picnic table (not pictured) and gas grill ready for your fresh seafood feast. The outdoor patio offers fully fenced-in space for kids to play hopscotch, tag, and other outdoor games (several provided). And after a long day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower before heading inside. If you’re looking for a quiet moment, the backyard screened porch offers a shaded, breezy retreat, where you can sip a glass of wine, enjoy bird watching while eating a meal, or dive into a great beach-read—and the 4 stacks of bookshelves in the living room provide you with all the reading material you could possibly want! Whether you're spending time together or enjoying a peaceful escape, this home’s outdoor spaces are designed to make the most of your beachside stay.
