The space
WALK TO THE BEACH - ALL ON SIDEWALKS! FENCED YARD! Welcome to the Rusty Anchor, this home is located near Middleton Ave. & Oak Island Drive, which means easy access to stores, downtown Oak Island, and of course - The Beach! A short, safe stroll down the sidewalks will take you directly to the beach where you can spend your days on the sand. Enjoy the many different accesses on Oak Island's 14 miles of south facing beach.

Start your day off with some morning coffee on the front porch, rocking away as you listen to the waves crash. Or have breakfast al-fresco on the large covered deck with dining table and chairs! Grab your beach chairs (up to 8 provided with 2 beach buggies) and head down to the beach for a day of fun in the sun. Come an go as you please since the home is a short walk to the sand.

After a day in the waves, come home to relax and unwind. The well equipped kitchen is a cook's dream, perfect for preparing meals for the whole family. Or, get ready and hit the town and dine at one of the many restaurants on Oak Island or in Southport! The 65" smart tv is ready for all your streaming service subscriptions. Tons of board games available for some family fun evenings.

After your day is done, spend the evening around the fire pit toasting marshmallows and hotdogs. You can also enjoy a game of cornhole in the large driveway or side yard. The fully fenced backyard is perfect for the pets and kids to run and play. Or simply relax and gaze at the stars - very little tree cover helps maximize your viewing opportunities.

Once it's time to retire, choose from one of the 3 bedrooms. The primary suite features a king bed, a large desk and a television with en-suite full bath. The middle bedroom, or bunk room, is perfect for the kids. A 'twin over full' bunk bed and twin bed allows for ample sleeping space for everyone - tv included. The third bedroom features another king bed and television.

The large fenced backyard boasts a deck with shade sail and cafe lights, patio table and chairs, charcoal grill, firepit, and plenty of chairs for some outdoor fun. The garage is perfect to store all your beach equipment and houses the complimentary beach chairs, sand toys, and beach buggies to use during your stay. The driveway is huge - perfect for 4 cars and for the kids to run around and play. The front porch is for some relaxation time, rocking in the chairs and sipping on your favorite beverage.
