Living a street away from the 9th Street Scenic Walkway means you can enjoy beautiful strolls over the Davis Canal to the beach in just 15 minutes. Hop on a bike, golf cart, or car and you'll have your feet in the sand in just two. It's close to the beach but protected from the worries and costs associated with owning on the beach side. Its quality of construction, features, finishes, square footage, condition, and furnishings make 1003 E Oak Island a fierce competitor in the Oak Island market. The spacious layout, featuring large bedrooms and closets all on one level, makes it a perfect primary residence. While it's close proximity and easy beach access make it an ideal second home or rental investment. This home has never been rented but I'm happy to speak to the short term rental potential. Just ask.With an elevator shaft already in place all you need to do is call the elevator company to install the cab. It's usually right around $20,000.The backyard of this home is begging for a pool. Ask me and I'll run down some quotes for you. The vibrancy and functionality of every space makes this home exciting and comfortable. You have two ways of entering the home. The first is through the dry entry under the house that hosts a large entry foyer and access to your future elevator. Past the foyer and elevator shaft is a powder room, access to the huge storage area where your golf cart can be parked, and the backdoor that leads out to the lovely backyard big enough for a nice pool. You'll also find the outdoor shower and stairs up to the awesome deck and back screened in porch. Come back inside and the stairs off the foyer lead up to a hallway into the kitchen.The second entry is via the front steps onto the covered rocking chair frontporch with a fantastic screened in area to your left. Inside the bright and open floor plan greets you with a smile of warmth and welcome. The living room is light and airy with soft natural light all around. The fireplace brings the cozy while the soaring ceilings in the dining room bring the drama. Not to be outdone by the incredible kitchen that makes the perfect gathering place. You'll pass the elevator shaft as you make your way to the big walk in pantry off the laundry room. The laundry room door takes you outside to the screened in porch and to the large open grilling deck. Tucked away privately in the back of the home you'll find the owner's retreat. This primary bedroom is one of the largest I've seen on the island. It has a large walk in closet with built ins. The primary bath is quite nice with separated dual vanities, a tile walk in shower plus a water closet. The guest bedrooms are spacious as well and share a lovely Jack and Jill bathroom with double sink vanity and tiled shower/tub combination. All the furnishings you see come with the home.
