This charming coastal home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and 1,762 sq ft, set on a spacious .42-acre homesite (120 x 150) just a short stroll from the heart of Carolina Beach. Hardwood floors run throughout the main living areas, while the expansive 12 x 23-ft sunroom with tile flooring offers flex space as a home office, playroom, or additional gathering space. The kitchen features wood countertops, a double sink plus prep sink, gas range, newer dishwasher (2025), bar overhang seating, and an eat-in dining area. An adjacent scullery/laundry room offers ample storage. The primary suite includes an en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower, while two other bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family or guests. Additional highlights include recently painted exterior (2025), new roof (2024), newer water heater (2022), and whole-house gutters. Outside, the large detached two-car garage and separate shed provide excellent storage. The wraparound driveway offers generous parking for guests, boats, or recreational vehicles. Enjoy cookouts with friends and family on the patio or relax in the large fenced backyard. An outdoor shower makes rinsing off after beach days easy. For buyers or developers looking for additional possibilities, the spacious homesite may also present a future development opportunity. If the detached garage were removed, the backyard would allow for the creation of an additional 50 x 120+ homesite. Under current R-10 zoning, this would meet the 6,000 sq ft requirement. Located just a short golf cart ride from the beach and directly across from Carolina Beach State Park, this home offers easy access to miles of nature trails, boating, and outdoor recreation. You're also just minutes from local breweries, dining, shopping, and only eight blocks from the iconic Carolina Beach Boardwalk. Call today to make this yours!
