"Luna Sea" Crazy for the Ocean!" managed by Dale and Salt Water Real Estate may be just the fashonable yet beachy ocean escape your family is looking for! "Luna Sea" has IT ALL! Less than ONE block from the Atlantic shores and across the street from the TIKI Bar, the get-a-way features broad vistas from multiple decks and interior rooms. A screened porch and triple sliders sits just off the kitchen along with a private fenced backyard complete with an outdoor kitchen, TV, and dining area!
Neighborhood description
Pleasure Island is a coastal barrier island in Southeastern North Carolina, USA just south of the City of Wilmington. Pleasure Island is located within Federal Point Township, in New Hanover County. The coastal resort towns of Carolina Beach and Kure Beach, as well as the annexed communities of Wilmington Beach and Hanby Beach are located on the island. "Luna Sea" rests less than one block away from the Atlantic (beach accesses @ Texas AND South Carolina Ave.), and four rows in from the Intracoastal Waterway. The property is set less than a mile from downtown Carolina Beach with its stores, activities, and dining. There are fireworks during the summer every Thursday nighttime, Movies at the lake each Sunday nighttime, and local fairs around the lake each Saturday morning.
Carolina Beach is a mix of friendly locals, snowbirds, and visitors all looking to escape the inland and savor the sand, surf, and sun. We really have an impressive community! Carolina Beach and the surrounding neighborhoods offer an array of sights and activities to appreciate while here. Some of these examples are (but not limited to) a subtle beach hike through Carolina Beach State Park, Fishing on the Kure Beach Pier, kayaking to one of the many islands surrounding the Intracoastal Waterway, watching canons blast during a historical reenactment at the Fort Fisher State Historic Site, or petting some Sting Rays at the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher. This doesn’t even include the awing scenery of Airlie Gardens, and our very own battleship (USS NC) in Wilmington! Perhaps more calming and less “adventure” is your speed? Our own local Brewery (Good Hops) along with a round of Frisbee golf may be what the doctor ordered!
The space
Constructed in 2019, this expansive 4 bedroom and 6 bath home at over 3,000+ square feet is ALL about privacy, comfort, and space. As you walk into the entryway from either the garage or main entrance a little bit of Italy and a lot of bit of Beach welcomes you! Off the main stairway sits bedroom #1 (with TWO QUEEN beds) and full bathroom #1.
Take the stairs (or private 3-stop elevator) up to the second floor where your expansive open living blueprint awaits. Your modern gourmet kitchen complete with stainless appliances, enormous kitchen island with chrome sink, and high-end upgrades will make everybody feel like Thomas Keller or Gordon Ramsay when behind the wheel! Looking over the kitchen island onto the main family room, there isn't a "bad" seat in this home! The loving owners have thrown an array of couches, chaise lounges, and chairs to suit your mood albeit salty, sandy, or sunny!
A few of the amenities supplied by your Owners include courtesy Eco Conveniences travel size organic soap/shampoo/lotions and sizable Aussie shampoo and conditioner are left in the bathroom of each bath as well. Also, a roll of TP in each bathroom, 1 roll of PT in the kitchen, 2 garbage bags per garbage, laundry pods, dishwasher pods, dryer sheets, hand soap, dish soap, a sponge, Cafe' Bustelo, Tazo Tea, and pure cane sugar in each kitchen. Additional items are likely on sight as well!
On the south side of the room rests a dining table for six with partial Atlantic vistas in the backdrop and your three-door slider which opens into a screened porch creating a remarkable indoor/outdoor entertaining space! Just off the kitchen sits bedroom #2 (with ONE QUEEN bed), and full bathroom #2.
Up the stairway or hop back into the elevator and up to the top floor where a separate communal area comprised of a modest dining table, couch, TV, and half bath (bathroom #4) reside! On the East side of the home sits bedroom #3 (with ONE QUEEN bed) and its own full ensuite bath (bathroom #5). Across the hall stands the Master bedroom (with ONE KING bed), its own full ensuite bath (bathroom #6). What really makes the Master remarkable, is its upsized private balcony with partial Atlantic vistas and invigorating salty Eastward breezes.
