Come and see why they say Life is Better at the Beach! This beautifully maintained, custom built, one of a kind, beach home offers the perfect blend of relaxed coastal living, thoughtful updates, and a private lower-level apartment with a successful rental history!

From the moment you arrive, the cheerful yellow exterior and turquoise front door welcome you into a home that perfectly captures the spirit of beach living.

Upstairs, beautiful hardwood floors flow through the main living areas, while soft coastal colors create a bright and inviting atmosphere. The spacious living room features a built-in entertainment center and bookshelves, making it the perfect gathering space after a day on the beach.

Two guest bedrooms with LVP flooring are located at the front of the home and share a full hall bath. Toward the rear, the updated galley kitchen (2018) is beautifully appointed with granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, quality cabinetry, and ample workspace. A separate dining room offers plenty of room for entertaining, while the adjacent laundry room provides convenient access to the rear deck.

The private primary suite is tucked away at the back of the home, complete with a spacious walk-in closet, oversized ensuite bath with a walk-in shower, and direct access to the screened porch--an ideal place to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind after a day by the ocean.

Downstairs, the separate apartment expands the possibilities. With its own private entrance, screened porch, living room with mini-split HVAC, kitchenette, spacious bedroom, and full bath, this versatile space has enjoyed a successful rental history, making it an excellent opportunity for supplemental income, guest accommodations, or multigenerational living.

Outside, you'll find ample parking, an outdoor shower for rinsing off after beach days, and plenty of room for all of your coastal toys and gear. Ideally located just minutes from Oak Island's beautiful beaches, local restaurants, shopping, and recreation, this property offers the flexibility today's buyers are looking for!
