Kure (pronounced CURE-ee) Beach is situated between Carolina Beach and Fort Fisher on Pleasure Island. Kure Beach is a little more upscale than neighboring Carolina Beach. There are a lot of new construction homes on and near the waterfront. There are eight public beach accesses all with free parking. You can stroll along the 1/3 mile long boardwalk, relax on one of many ocean front benches and swings at the beautiful Ocean Front Park , or take a walk on the oldest pier on the Atlantic coastline. It was built in 1923 and is 711 feet long. Admission is free for walking. Parking is free at the center of town and restaurants and local business are all within walking distance. There is a year-round population of 2000 residents and it jumps to 5500 during the tourist season. Kure Beach has a quieter lifestyle than Carolina Beach on its northern border which is just a 5 minute drive away so all of the amenities of Carolina Beach are close at hand. To the south is Fort Fisher and the Civil War memorial along with the NC Aquarium, voted one of the best in the country. There is also a public beach access for four wheel drive vehicles. You will need to get a pass but you can drive on the beach and enjoy a more secluded location. Kure Beach, NC has a family friendly atmosphere where “getting away from it all” is the order of business.

Introducing 410 Fort Fisher Blvd N, an exceptional oceanfront home in Kure Beach where thoughtful design meets superior craftsmanship.

The grand Palladian window in the foyer floods the space with natural light, creating an inviting, airy ambiance. Throughout the home, beautiful maple hardwood floors, intricate molding, and ever-present ocean views reinforce the coastal charm.Every detail throughout this remarkable home reflects a commitment to beauty, efficiency, and longevity. Built with 2X6 construction, engineered ceilings for soundproofing, and reinforced steel rods securing the roof, this home is as strong as it is timeless. In addition, two high-efficiency, ultra-quiet HVAC systems provide year-round comfort, while wide doorways and an elevator offer age-in-place living.With two independent living spaces--one on each level--this home is perfect for entertaining, multi-generational living, or accommodating guests. Located in the quiet, close-knit town of Kure Beach--known for its small-town charm and friendly neighbors--this is more than a home, it is a peaceful coastal retreat waiting for its new owner.
