    What's special

    Beach House meets Luxe in this 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath waterfront sanctuary on Bald Head Island. Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac and down a wooded drive, this Executive Retreat's entrance immediately wows with its through-house back glass wall reveal (over the pool and large deck) of West Beach and its salty surf. Your family will savor countless hours outside sunning and swimming in your private oasis or step onto your own benched beach access and go for the azure waves. Back inside, the sun-drenched open floor plan provides a spacious living area with a fireplace, cozy reading nook with built-ins and a nearby wet bar. On one side of this is a generous, vaulted screened porch with conversation space and dining set. On the other side is a more formal dining area with both a sizable dining table as well as a café set. The adjacent multi-chef gourmet kitchen features yards of quartz counters for prepping, a breakfast bar and banquette, stainless appliances and a farmhouse sink. The grilling deck is conveniently nearby. Down a quiet hall, hardwoods lead to three sunny suites. The first is a corner bedroom with two Full beds and its own ensuite. Beyond, another corner suite sleeps five in two bunkbeds and a Twin. It boasts its own full bath with tub and dual vanity. Across, the third bright suite houses a King and ensuite with a pebbled floor/tile/glass shower. This wing also includes the laundry and powder room. Upstairs is a balcony sitting spot outside the huge King Owner's suite. This suite dazzles with its glass wall spotlighting glinting panoramas stretching from Sunny Point to far into the Atlantic. Wake up to this vision from your bed or step out onto your private deck and let the seascapes and breezes wash over you. The indulgent Primary Bath also pampers with a benched shower, sunken tub, water closet and dual vanity. Conveniently located-close to the marina, restaurants and shops. BHIC Equity Lifestyle membership available for separate purchase.
