Delightful, peaceful neighborhood in the beautiful "Tranquil Harbor" section of Oak Island. This is a ideal neighborhood for a leisurely walk or a bicycle ride. The home is located within a 1 min. walk to the Intercoastal Waterway (ICW), a ten min. walk to the beach (3 min. drive!), and a five min. drive to grocery stores, gift stores, clothing stores, eateries, ice cream stores and more. Just across Oak Island Drive is the 9th Street Crossover, which offers a walking bridge across the canal and to the beach.



Getting Around:

Getting around on Oak Island is simple. In addition to traditional cars, we find that our guests appreciate walking, cycling, or even renting an E-Bicycle or golf cart. (please keep in mind that golf cart drivers and passengers must follow the same rules of the road as cars, and are not allowed on streets with a speed limit greater than 35 mph).



Whatever your mode of transportation, you'll find you are greeted everywhere you go by a smile or a friendly wave.
