About This Home
As of June 2022You will be amazed when you visit this great home in one of the premier communities of Kure Beach. Just steps from the pool, playground and tennis courts and a short walk to the ocean with private beach access. This home is currently owner occupied, but getting ready for tenants already booked for the summer, making it a great investment property. Comfortable living with 6 bedrooms and 4.5 baths. Many, many renovations have been completed (list available in attached documents with special attention to the baths). Relax in the hammock in the shaded, fenced back yard or play corn hole on the covered front porch in the rain. Lots of outdoor living including the back deck for grilling with easy access to the great room and kitchen. Appointments required.
