Your property
Pleasure Island (Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, and Fort Fisher) has become a RAPIDLY increasing vacation (and full-time!) destination for the East coast and beyond for many reasons. It’s a family-oriented beach with a touch of everything one might be looking for! It’s an AMAZING place to visit, live, and never leave!
The home lies directly in the middle of both CB and KB and is a long walk or short drive to downtown and everything that is has to offer. In Carolina Beach you’ve got the boardwalk, restaurants, and local shops of all kinds. If you like adventures, the marina is also there where you can take an offshore fishing trip, diving excursion, or party boat out for a sunset sail. Camping more your thing? Bring the 4X4 and drive (and camp) on the beach at Freeman Park, located on the North End of the island. You can also head down to KB and fish directly off their fishing pier complete with bait, tackles, and more! The CB Lake is nearby, hosting a weekly Farmer’s Market every Saturday and FIREWORKS every Thursday!
The entry to this 4 bedroom/4 bath townhome *sandcastle* opens into large entryway with ample storage space for all your personal beach nick-knacks, bikes, trikes and belongings! Moving inside, you encounter a private laundry room perfect for keeping those Hawaiian shirts, khaki shorts, and swim wear primed and ready to go!

As you head back into hallway and ascend up to the expansive second floor open entertainment area, kitchen, dining room, family room, and more! Bedroom #2 (with a Queen bed) and Full bathroom #2 sits just off your modern chef’s kitchen complete with granite, granite, and more granite! Modern stainless appliances and a kitchen chocked full of amenities give you access to dine both IN and OUT like royalty. The large family room equipped with an eclectic mix of high-end furnishings, cozy amenities and technology ensures a proper opportunity to recharge from a day of adventuring! Also on this floor nestled just beyond the large screen rests another private deck space providing both interior AND exterior dining options to suit the weather, mood, or ambience.
As you make your way upstairs, the Master bedroom (Bedroom #3) complete with a King size bed, Twin guest bed, ensuite bathroom (#3) with a double vanity and walk-in shower stall accompanies your private oversized East facing balcony (*complete with Sea Salt breezes at no added cost! * Heading West back into the hallway, bedroom #4 with two Twin beds size bed along with Bathroom #4 (complete with a shower/tub combo) comes into view.
As if partial Atlantic views, crisp morning breezes, and pelicans floating in tandem overhead less than a few blocks away from Wilmington Beach wasn’t enough, a spiral staircase from the Master takes you up a final flight to a truly remarkable indoor/outdoor space complete with an array of outdoor seating and access to a tranquility and respite that will simply melt your cares into the sun-kissed seascape before you. It’s not IF you deserve this, it’s how quick can you visit!

Neighborhood description
The home itself is just three short blocks from the nearest beach access. The property is a short drive from down town CB with its shops, activities and dining and is equidistant to the smaller, but just as charming down town KB. There are fireworks during the summer every Thursday night and local fairs around the lake each Saturday morning.
CB and the surrounding neighborhood offers an array of sights and activities to enjoy while here. Some of these examples are (but not limited to) a subtle beach hike through CB State Park, Fishing on the KB Pier, Kayaking to one of the many islands surrounding the ICWW, watching canons blast during a historical reenactment at the Fort Fisher State Historic Site, or petting some Sting Rays at the NC Aquarium at Fort Fisher. This doesn’t even include the aweing scenery of Airlie Gardens, and our very own battleship (USS NC) in Wilmington! Perhaps more relaxing and less “adventure” is your speed. Our own local Brewery (Good Hops) along with a round of Frisbee golf may be a great time.
And between the beach and Down Town Wilmington, boy do we have FOOD, Festivals, and good times!
Getting around
There isn’t anywhere or anything on our Island that isn’t accessible with foot power. Downtown Carolina Beach has a number of vendors (such as Pleasure Island Rentals @ 2 N Lake Park Blvd Carolina Beach NC 28428 (golf carts) and Tony Silvagni’s Surf School @ 107 Charlotte ave Carolina Beach NC 28428 (bicycles, paddleboards, surfboards, kayaks) for rent as an alternative to walking or driving. Taxi’s (local golf cart taxi’s) and Uber’s are also generally available for an assist when needed as well throughout the island! You can catch a Ferry to Southport in Kure Beach @ 2422 Fort Fisher Blvd S Kure Beach which leads to another ferry to Bald Head Island where NO CARS are allowed at all!
After all, you won’t catch many locals going OTB! (Over The Bridge). Everything you need is right here!
