Welcome to your coastal retreat on the highly sought-after island of Emerald Isle! This beautifully refreshed 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect blend of privacy, charm, and convenience. Featuring fresh interior paint, this home is move-in ready and designed for easy island living. Elevated on stilts and tucked away in a private neighborhood, you'll enjoy both added privacy and coastal character. Relax on the spacious first-floor half open and half screened in or second floor porches, perfect for soaking in the ocean breeze, or unwind on the second-floor deck overlooking a peaceful tree-lined backyard. Although part of a duplex, the staggered design ensures you're not directly facing your neighbors--allowing you to truly enjoy your outdoor spaces. Located just 0.5 miles from public beach access (with golf cart parking!) and only minutes from local shopping, dining, and all the summer fun the island has to offer, this home delivers the lifestyle renters are looking for.
