About this property

Oceanfront Retreat in Maritime Forest w/ Private Beach Walk, Old Baldy View, Dog Friendly + BHI Club

Doc House is a one-of-a-kind waterfront retreat, custom built to capture some of the most breathtaking views on Bald Head Island—while offering one of the island’s most convenient locations. From here, you can easily walk to the harbor, marina, Old Baldy Lighthouse, cafés, shops, and more.




Surrounded by protected maritime forest, this home offers both privacy and natural beauty, with towering trees, local wildlife, and peaceful surroundings. Inside, more than 60 windows—many floor-to-ceiling—fill the space with natural light and showcase stunning views of the ocean, marsh, and forest.




Step outside to expansive decks or take your private beach boardwalk to the shore, where you can enjoy incredible sunsets. An outdoor shower makes it easy to rinse off after a day at the beach.




Fresh linens and towels are included in the cleaning fee, and the home is dog-friendly for your four-legged family members. Guests also have the option to purchase a temporary Bald Head Island Club social membership for access to the pool and dining (fees apply).




With its unbeatable views, walkable location, and serene setting, Doc House offers a comfortable island escape.
