The first level is dedicated entirely to common living space. Parlor together in the living room to savor a favorite movie on the enormous, wall-mounted, flat-screen TV. The sturdy dining table seats eight comfortably for home-cooked meals or a friendly round of cards. The close by breakfast bar provides seating for another five as well as striking vistas of the crashing surf. Gleaming stone countertops and tile backsplash create an inviting kitchen space, supplied with everything you need to prepare traditional family recipes or the catch of the day. A half bath is also located on this level for your convenience, with the laundry closet containing a stackable washer and dryer on the opposite side of the hall.

At the top of the staircase on the second floor, you’ll find the first king bedroom featuring an attached private bath with a step-in shower. On the west side of the home, you’ll find a full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo, double sinks and hall access shared between the other two bedrooms on this floor. One of these rooms is furnished with a king bed. The third room may be utilized either as a bedroom or as a second living area thanks to the queen sleeper couch, additional-sizable TV and wine refrigerator located here.

The layout of the third floor is nearly the same as the second, with an identical king bedroom and attached private bath at the top of the staircase. The other two bedrooms on this floor again share access to a hall bath, with one of these rooms featuring a king bed. The final bedroom is the bunk room, complete with two twin-over-twin bunk beds.

On the ground level, the private pool provides a welcome spot to cool off without the need to navigate rolling waves. Entirely fenced, the pool area is complete with comfortable lounge chairs and a stone fire pit. A hammock waits just outside the gates, strung between pilings under the shade of the home. The shared public beach access one home to the west is effortlessly reached via the street side of the home, but please note that the beach cannot be directly accessed from the pool area. Feeling hungry? Several eateries sit within painless walking distance of this home, including oceanfront dining options.

Take a break from the turbulent, stormy seas of everyday life and let Lighthouse shepherd your family to a well-deserved respite in handsome Oak Island today!
