This striking home will soon become your favorite getaway because the vistas here are astounding!  Located in the very calming and highly sought-after Caswell Beach area, you will be surrounded in natural beauty and wildlife.  From any of the comfortable covered porches, you an savor your morning coffee and experience the serenity of the Intracoastal Waterway from the back of the home or charming Atlantic Ocean vistas on the front of the home.  Vistas to be adored from every direction, even a view of the Oak Island Lighthouse just down the street!  Not to mention, your beach access is only three homes away!  This home is one of the most beautiful on Oak Island and Caswell Beach, as during the filming of Boys of Summer, a certain lead actor was in residence here.

Inside, you will appreciate the reverse floor plan with an open concept great room, formal dining area, and kitchen on the top floor, boasting enormous windows to maximize those broad vistas.  The top floor also features a generous size master bedroom with bespoke constructed-in work desk and huge walk-in closet, roomy en suite bathroom with double vanity and a no threshold bespoke tile walk-in shower with bench, a half bath just off the great room, and a laundry area with sink.  The chef in the family will adore the gourmet kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, convection oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher and more!

Downstairs, you will find a second and rather calming living area with a mini-refrigerator and direct access to one of many covered porches.  Also on this level are three guest bedrooms.  A king bedroom and a queen bedroom share a jack and jill bathroom, and the final bedroom is ideal for modest families or a group of kiddos featuring a triple twin bunk bed and a queen bed.  This final bedroom also has its own en suite bathroom.  

Outside , you can know the kids are safe playing in the sizable fenced backyard.  Feel complimentary to wash all the sand away from a fun-filled day at the beach in the enclosed hot/cold outdoor shower.  As evening approaches, you can grille out your fresh catch on the gas grille for the best local seafood you've ever tasted.  

In the spirit of Beryl Markham the great female aviator, whose memoir is West with the Nighttime, come and create your adventures at this exceptional beach home.
