Tucked away on the secluded east end of the island, this ocean front home offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, living area, kitchen and a huge deck that has unobstructed vistas of the Atlantic.

For those reading our reviews from 2021, you will see the comments about the high tide coming up under the home. This is no longer the case. At the beginning of 2022, there was a considerable amount of beach renourishment finished, along with a rock jetty installed that has now turned the beach into an "ascending beach", rather than a "descending beach".

Ocean Isle Beach has many dining and entertainment options. There's miniature golf, the maritime museum, homemade ice cream shop, rental stores for just about anything, pickle ball courts, tennis courts and playground in the center of the island. During the summer months, there are complimentary concerts weekly at the Town Center. For the anglers, you'll find the Ocean Isle Fishing Center for charters and excursions.

Just off the island is a Publix grocery store and Lowes food store. Golfers will delight in the multitude of golf courses in the area. Within a 15 min. drive is Calabash, known as one of the seafood capitals of the southeast. A 30 min. drive to the south is Myrtle Beach with shopping, dining, golf and entertainment options to suit any age group. 45 mins. to the north is historic downtown Wilmington. With all the offerings at your fingertips, we welcome you to our home on OIB.
