Canal View Coastal Retreat with direct beach access at the end of SE 40th Street !
This custom-built Moffitt Builders Custom Home offers two en-suites plus a private guest bedroom and bath. It is being offered furnished with select exclusions, and is ideally positioned on the sought-after south side of Oak Island–where water, light, and lifestyle come together effortlessly.
Enjoy peaceful, ever-changing views of the Davis Canal and surrounding marshlands, where resident blue herons and white egrets are part of the daily landscape, along with a glimpse of the ocean at the end of the street. Whether it’s morning coffee on the porch or unwinding at sunset, this setting captures the essence of coastal living. A double stairway entrance and dual front porches finished with Trex decking and coastal exterior lighting create a welcoming first impression. Built with durability in mind, the home features upgraded impact windows and a reinforced roof for added peace of mind. Inside, five-foot double panel wainscoting, large windows with custom trim, and transom windows in the family room bring in abundant natural light. Ceiling heights add dimension throughout, with 9-foot ceilings in the kitchen and main living areas, 10-foot ceilings in the bedrooms, and a striking 13-foot ceiling in the main living area and front bedroom or TV room. The living space is anchored by a ventless gas fireplace with a substantial white mantle and stone surround.
The open-concept layout flows into a well-appointed kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A large island with quartz countertops, farmhouse sink, and custom cabinetry is complemented by a Samsung dishwasher and refrigerator, GE gas range and oven, white subway tile backsplash, a wine refrigerator, and a custom hood over the stove. Soft-close drawers enhance functionality, and a spacious walk-in pantry with double doors and a built-in microwave adds convenience. Please note, the microwave is not built into the cabinetry.
The dining area overlooks the screened-in back porch, where Trex decking, Edison lighting, and canal views create a relaxed outdoor living space ideal for gathering or quiet evenings with the sound of the ocean in the background. Custom lighting and architectural details add character throughout, including antique doors from Egypt that open to a unique linen closet. The primary suite offers a private retreat with detailed trim work, two closets, a luxury soaking tub, tile flooring, a zero-entry walk-in shower, and dual vanities with quartz countertops. The second en-suite bedroom features abundant natural light and a private bath with tile flooring and a tub with tiled surround. A front guest bedroom, currently used as a den, is adjacent to a thoughtfully designed bath with honeycomb tile floors, shiplap walls, a zero-entry shower and fun dynamic tropical wallpaper to accent this small space. The laundry room is located off the back entry and includes a utility sink, wood shelving, a stacked washer and dryer, and access to the grilling deck. Below the home, there is abundant covered space providing room for outdoor living and entertaining, plenty of parking and an outdoor shower. There is one enclosed storage room and an open separate one for your beach gear.
