About this property
The Gathering Place - 1 Block from Beach!
Newly renovated 5 Bedroom, 3 bath, beach house located one block from the ocean in Duck Horn Estates. Approximately one mile to restaurants and shopping and one mile from Cape Carteret Bridge allowing easy access on and off the island during the busy summer months. Hop on the Convenient Bike Trail and ride all the way to the Point or cruise to the nearby shops and restaurants. The ground level has a large living room with sitting area and separate entertainment space with a foosball table and other games. This level has a full bathroom with walk in shower. The second level has a large living room, dining area and fully stocked kitchen. There are two decks on this level: one off the kitchen with a grill and the other deck is oceanside. Two bedrooms are located off of the living room. A Queen Bedroom opens up to a large oceanside deck. The second bedroom has two twin beds. This level shares a full bathroom. The top level has three Queen bedrooms, two of which have oceanside walk-out decks. Step out on the deck with a nice cup of coffee from our upstairs keurig machine without having to go downstairs (bring your own coffee - we don't supply due to guests having their own preferences to coffee or tea flavors/brands)! We provide 10 beach chairs, 6 boogie boards, 1 beach umbrella with a sand anchor. We also provide beach sand toys and a few beach games and a splash pool for infants. On your way back from the beach, you can rinse off the sand in our outside enclosed shower on the ground level and store your beach items in the storage unit. DuckHorn Estates is a quiet section of Emerald Isle one mile off the Cape carteret Bridge . Hop on the convenient bike trail to explore the Point or bike to nearby retsaurants and shopping. Also, its an short walk to restaurants and a park close by.
