This home is gorgeous! It combines crystal chandeliers with stainless steel countertops, open catwalks and a Japanese soaking tub. Please note there is another vacation rental, downstairs, in the same building.
Cavernous, bright and comfortable, there are broad vistas of the sand, sea grass and water from every window. Ocean in the front and Carolina Beach Lake with its paddle boats, ducks, walking path and farmers market in the back. We believe this is the best location on the island!
The top two story section of the home is for your exclusive use. There is another, smaller vacation rental on the first floor, but they are two completely independent units with separate heating/air, water, entries, etc.
You will share the garage below the home and boardwalk out to the ocean, with its wooden benches, foot wash and shower. But there is plenty of space to go around!
You will have complete access to 2 1/2 levels of home. Everything inside the front door is yours! Three private decks: two facing the ocean and one overlooking the lake. You have your own full laundry room, entryway, two living areas, three bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths and an enormous kitchen area – all with impressive vistas striking details and cavernous lighting. Look out any window to see vistas of water either the ocean or the lake! There’s no comparing it.
I like to allow my guests to savor the island at their own pace, giving them privacy to relax. I am, however only a text or phone call away and reside on the island in case anyone needs assistance.
We chose to build our home on this particular lot because of its superior location. The front of the home has expansive vistas of the ocean waving sea grass and dolphins swimming past the surfers lined up on the breaks, while the rear windows look out over the lake with its walking path, ducks, and paddle boats.
We are close enough to walk to many eateries, coffee stores, bars, the boardwalk with its arcade and world famed donut shop, gift stores, organic market — the list goes on.
Every Thursday nighttime the town of Carolina Beach puts on a spectacular fireworks display which you can see from any of the multiple porches in the home, or walk down the sand to join the festivities — there is always live music on those evenings.
On weekends you can walk across the street to the Carolina beach lake where there’s a farmers and craft market, often with live music and food stands. One evening a week there’s an outdoor family movie projected on a enormous screen by the lake! Bring a picnic and a chair. It is good family fun.
The list goes on, with the option of renting a golf cart for the duration of your stay. That makes everything more fun! Even grocery shopping.
The North Carolina aquarium is just a few miles down the island, as are the two four-wheel-drive beach accesses. And if you don’t have your own four-wheel-drive that’s no problem, Sun Fun Units rents out jeeps for specifically this purpose! You can rent a jeep and go build a fire on the beach!
We have two fishing piers close by — bring your own poles or rent theirs. You can also charter a fishing boat at the marina.
There’s a ferry to catch down to Southport which is a amazing day trip with it’s amazing seafood eateries, shopping and historic homes.
The Tony Silvagni surf school is just a stones throw down the beach. No driving needed. They are so friendly and can get anybody standing up on a surfboard with a big grin on their face. They’ll also deliver bicycles, chairs, umbrellas and surf boards right to the door! We highly recommend them!
And when you are tired out from all those activities you can come into the cool opulent surroundings of this home and relax on the couch with a cold drink and still hear the sound of the waves.
Bringing a car here is best, but then, definitely rent a golf cart from Sun Fun Units on the island, or bicycles from Tony Silvagni Units (he offers board units and extraordinary surf lessons as well).
Our home has such a great location that you can comfortably walk to bars, eateries and coffee stores. You can always get an Uber or a lift, but calling one of the golf cart taxis for a trip around the island is the most fun! I think it’s about five dollars a person anywhere on the island. All of this information and more will be in the rental home when you arrive.
