Coastal living hits different on the west end of Holden Beach and this meticulously maintained, non-rental home is proof. Just steps from the Intracoastal Waterway and the beach, you'll love having private beach access at the end of the street, plus beautiful sunsets and ICW views from the expansive front porch where you can relax and watch the boats cruise by. Step inside to a bright, airy main level designed for easy entertaining, with high ceilings and a spacious living room that flows into a welcoming dining space and galley-style kitchen. Head straight from the living room or the kitchen to the main-level deck, perfect for grilling, outdoor meals, and swapping ''sand and sun'' stories. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are set apart from the main level, giving you a quiet place to unwind whenever you want, including a primary suite with a walk-in shower, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath. Plus, the top deck with newly replaced decking, accessed from the primary and second bedroom, is a front-row seat for salty-air mornings, stargazing, and ICW views. Downstairs, a covered patio gives you a shady spot to kick back, with space that could easily accommodate a hot tub. After a sandy beach day, hit the outdoor shower and send the salt and sand packing. Under the house you'll find two garage bays, one on each side, with a middle storage area that also includes a handy sink, perfect for quick clean-ups from sandy hands to fishing gear. Built on pilings with Hardie (fiber cement) siding and a new roof in 2025, this home also offers city water and sewer and no HOA. Seller is offering up to $10,000 credit toward buyer's closing costs/prepaids and/or interest rate buy-down with lender approval. Centrally located between Wilmington NC and Myrtle Beach SC allowing for easy access to and from the airport, plus minutes to fresh, local seafood, restaurants, shops and award-winning golf courses.
