Property Description

With spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean, Intracoastal Waterway, sound and marsh, 438 Oceana Way offers a rare opportunity to enjoy both boating and beach living from one exceptional island setting. Two boat slips accompany the property: one at the private dock behind the home and a separate 30- to 35-foot slip deeded to the property at the nearby community marina. Private gated access to the beach is just a short walk away within the community, completing an offering that is difficult to find along the coast. Offered fully furnished and extensively renovated, this residence is located within gated Oceana on the north end of Carolina Beach. Expansive water views take center stage throughout the home and continue into the backyard, where a large custom saltwater pool overlooks the water. The poolside terrace offers space to relax or entertain. From there, a newly rebuilt Trex boardwalk leads to a renovated gazebo overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway and marsh. The renovation touched nearly every interior space with updated kitchens and bathrooms as well as new flooring and fresh paint. A former flex space was converted into an additional bedroom, offering more room for family and guests. Other improvements include upgraded appliances, custom stairs and railings, elevator updates and multiple HVAC replacements. The result is a beautifully updated home that makes the most of its extraordinary island setting.
