Beachfront home with direct beach access, outdoor shower, ocean views, AC

New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.

Avalon offers all the comforts of home and even more! There is an oceanfront covered porch on the first level and an oceanfront sun deck on the second level. There is a sound-side deck, on the second level, where you can sit back and soak up the last rays of the day as the sun sets behind the sound. These outdoor living areas are furnished with a picnic table for dining, rockers, and some built-in seating.

The curb appeal is unmistakable. A cute little yard bordered with lively evergreens, coastal grasses and shrubs, and a poster fence welcome your family with a park-like atmosphere. On the first level, you will find the living area, dining area and kitchen. Just off of the living area, you will find a bunk room, full bath, and laundry. Enter the open living area, comfortably furnished and adorned with gleaming views of the sea. The living room has a neutral L- shaped sofa which offers plenty of comfortable seating. A round coffee table is prepared for you to rest your cold drink, while you sit back and relax. A few board games are stored in the hutch and there are extra chairs around for additional seating. There is also a desk located in the living area for writing in your journal or copying down your favorite seafood recipes. A bright green and blue rug adds just enough pops of color to this serene living area. Located to the right as you enter the home, the open kitchen allows the cook to prepare meals without missing any of the action. The amenities include a refrigerator with an in-door icemaker, a smooth surface stove, a built-in microwave, a blender, a coffee maker, and an additional prep area with a quick-rinse sink. This kitchen will accommodate the finest gourmet chef as well as the amateur cook. The open breakfast bar wraps around the kitchen and offers seven stools for additional seating. The dining room offers a rectangular table for eight that sits beneath a six-light chandelier. The horizon is a perfect appetizer for all your meals at Avalon. A high chair provides even the baby vacationer with a place to enjoy a bite or two. The light flooring and blue walls carry the beach feel throughout this entire open area. Sliding glass doors lead you to a covered oceanfront porch.

A set of stairs descend to a grand boardwalk grazing above the grassy dune. Front-row views of the ships gliding across the Atlantic are found at the seating area. A few more steps down and your toes are tickled by the sugar sand beach. Back on the covered porch, you will find a picnic table and built-in seating. Around the corner of the deck is a privately enclosed outdoor shower offering hot and cold water for your comfort. Rinse off the heat of the day and step into the side entrance of the home, where you will find a bathroom and full-size washer/dryer.

Located just down the hall from the living area is an oceanfront bedroom. In the same hall, next to the bedroom you will find a full bath and laundry area on your way to the staircase leading to the second floor. Ascend the stairs and to the right of the stairs, you will find access to a second-level sound-side deck. Hideaway and watch the blazing Topsail Island sunsets. Settle into a lounge chair and read the best seller you haven't had time for lately. All three bedrooms on the second level offer sliding glass doors accessing the oceanfront sun deck, with built-in seating. Step out onto the deck and with a bird's eye view of the shoreline, you may get a glimpse of some dolphins playing.
