About This Home

Perched just steps from the shoreline, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath condo captures everything buyers love about coastal living - sweeping ocean views, relaxing outdoor spaces, and the kind of effortless beach lifestyle that keeps visitors coming back year after year. Whether you're searching for a personal getaway, a full-time retreat by the sea, or an income-producing investment property, this oceanfront escape checks every box. Inside, the condo is offered fully furnished right down to the linens, creating a truly turn-key opportunity ready to enjoy or rent immediately from day one. The spacious layout is designed for comfort and connection, with bright, welcoming living spaces that make it easy to unwind after a day on the sand. Large windows and sliding doors invite in natural light and frame stunning coastal views, while the oversized balcony provides the perfect place to sip morning coffee, watch the sunrise over the Atlantic, or enjoy the ocean breeze well into the evening. Storm shutters add both convenience and peace of mind, making ownership even easier. Beyond the condo itself, residents and guests can take advantage of the oceanfront pool - a favorite spot for relaxing between beach walks and sunset dinners. And while the setting feels peaceful and tucked away, the location offers incredible convenience to some of Carolina Beach's most loved destinations. You're just minutes from local restaurants, shops, the iconic Carolina Beach Pier, and the off-road beaches of Freeman Park, giving you quick access to dining, entertainment, fishing, and outdoor adventure without sacrificing the tranquility of beachfront living. With a proven rental history already in place, this property offers strong investment potential alongside its undeniable lifestyle appeal.
