Refined coastal living awaits in this 2,600 sqft Oak Island residence. Designed by the owner and builder with forward-thinking modern trends, this single-owner, never-rented home competes with today's new construction. Unlike many beach homes, its 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom layout offers spacious rooms, hallways, and living areas, highlighted by 3-inch hardwood floors in living spaces and hallways, and tile in bathrooms and the laundry room. The expansive owner's suite offers a small ocean view and opens to a wide covered porch, flooding the space with natural light, and boasts a spacious walk-in closet, a luxurious ensuite with a large 5'x5' walk-in shower with dual spray heads, and a water closet. The great room in the living area combines a spacious layout with ocean views, ideal for both entertaining and relaxation. The kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring Frigidaire Gallery series appliances, an oversized kitchen island, soft-close drawers, and granite countertops to name a few. Built for longevity, the home features Hardi-board plank siding, a Rinnai gas water heater, and a hybrid insulation system for stable climate control including spray insulation in the lower floor system and elevator shaft and blown-in blanket insulation in the exterior walls. The high-efficiency HVAC system features variable speed motors and multi-stage compressors that run at low power to maintain a constant temperature, while stainless outdoor compressors resist the salt. Windows are DP 50 impact glass. Quality, durability, and comfort were paramount in the planning and design of every aspect of this home. Located just 400' from a public beach access, this home also offers extensive ground-level storage, ideal for beach gear and more, and deep covered porches for enjoying coastal breezes. Perfect for both living and investment, this home seamlessly blends practicality with luxurious coastal living.
