Every hour brings a new backdrop across the water, from soft sunrise hues to exceptional glowing sunset reflections. Two levels of outdoor spaces create multiple areas for year-round enjoyment, including a covered wrap around deck, sunny upper deck, and a large, screened porch that feels like an outdoor living room. Coastal breezes, sunshine, and shade are always within reach, and the extensive outdoor areas make the home feel remarkably spacious for relaxing or gathering. This house is in a prime location just about a mile from downtown Surf City and the big bridge so you can walk, bike, or ride on the nearby quiet beach road to restaurants, shopping, and entertainment. Inside, the home is bright, open, and designed to bring the outdoors in, with a thoughtfully decorated coastal interior that feels warm and inviting. Natural light pours through three sliding doors in the living room, framing the sound like a moving piece of art. Ocean views from the open floorplan, kitchen and screened porch create a rare dual-view experience. Recent upgrades include new sliding doors and exterior paint in 2025, new roof and floors in 2019, a new kitchen window in 2025, and a new front door in 2026. Bathrooms were remodeled in 2020. The kitchen features granite countertops and newer appliances. Three bedrooms provide comfortable sleeping spaces, with two including full private bathrooms while the third has easy access to a half bath. Set back from the main road, the home feels private and peaceful, with a backyard surrounded by trees and ample parking in the carport and driveway. The backyard offers a comfortable outdoor area for relaxing, play, or pets. The large outdoor shower and covered main entrance add to the coastal lifestyle. Beach access (in Horse Hammock Beach area) is quick and easy via the alley directly across the street leading to South Shore Drive. With no public parking lot at this access, the beach stays quieter and more relaxed. This home also offers a strong rental history, making it an excellent opportunity for both personal use and investment. Turn-key and sold fully furnished with a one-year home warranty that buyer can extend as desired.
