Overview
Description
Lakefront...with an ocean view too? Yes, please! This beautifully remodeled 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhome offers the rare combination of lakefront serenity & ocean glimpses, with water views from nearly every room. Tucked along the lake at Carolina Beach, this 1,232-square-foot home delivers the coastal lifestyle buyers dream about: morning coffee overlooking the water, evening breezes on the deck, & weekly fireworks lighting up the sky all summer long. Originally built in 1990, the home was thoughtfully remodeled in 2016 with high-end upgrades throughout & has never been used as a rental, making it one of the closest things you'll find to new construction in this location. Even better: no HOA & no rental restrictions, giving you flexibility whether you're searching for a primary residence, second home, or investment opportunity.
The main living level is bright, welcoming, & designed for relaxed coastal living. The updated kitchen features custom wood cabinetry, granite countertops, & KitchenAid stainless appliances including a convection oven, all flowing into the dining & living spaces. The living room adds warmth & style with an electric fireplace with custom surround & built-ins, plus a dry bar with wine cooler & granite counters, perfect for entertaining after a day at the beach. Light wood-look tile floors in the living areas, new carpet in the bedrooms, & updated lighting with dimmers add a polished feel throughout.
Step outside to the covered deck with rolling shades, Bose all-weather speakers, & sleek cable railings, creating an ideal spot to relax with a drink while watching water birds glide across the lake.
Upstairs, the two bedrooms offer privacy & comfort, each with beautifully updated baths featuring custom vanities, granite countertops, & modern fixtures. Sliding glass doors in the primary suite lead onto the top-level deck for sunbathing or stargazing with the most amazing views.
Major system upgrades provide peace of mind, including a FORTIFIED Bronze 45-year roof (2019), new HVAC (2021), Window World windows with UV protection, whole-house filtration system, & durable cement board replacement on ground-level walls up to 4'.
Outside, you'll find the coastal extras everyone loves: • Enclosed garage • Large outdoor shower with hot & cold water • Roll-down hurricane shutters • Direct access to the paved trail around the lake
The refrigerator & washer/dryer convey, & all other furnishings are negotiable, making it possible to move right in & start enjoying the Carolina Beach lifestyle immediately. Located just steps from the beach, boardwalk, restaurants, & shops, & close to Carolina Beach Elementary School, this home blends convenience, views & easy coastal living. Lakefront. Ocean views. Fireworks from your deck. No HOA. This one checks all the boxes. Book your showing & come see for yourself!
