Oak Island, NC comprising of Long Beach and Yaupon Beaches, has ten miles of uncrowded beaches and a family oriented feel. There are more than 60 public beach accesses, two fishing piers, two marinas and three public boat ramps with access to the Intracoastal Waterway and the inlets leading to the ocean. You’ll find mini-golf, ice cream shops and many parks on this old-time lazy beach. The year-round population is around 7000 but the summer months jump to 30,000 to 50,000.
The island has been inhabited since the early 19th century; Fort Caswell was built on its eastern end in 1838. Fort Caswell served as a Confederate fort in the Civil War and protected the port town of Wilmington. The remainder of the island was developed beginning in the late 1930s.

There is no better home on Oak Island for sale. This, one of a kind, home was built stick by stick to be the best of all worlds. One of the last oceanfront masterpieces by renowned builder Ken Kiser, this home stands alone. Location is always talked about in real estate, but this one has it all. Of course, it is ocean front with stairs that take you steps from the water. Yaupon Pier is within sight and only a short walk (one of only two piers on Oak Island, NC). Lastly, the only restaurant and bar on Oak Island that you can actually enjoy the beach sand between your toes as you eat. To top it all off, the Oak Island Golf Course is just moments from this house. So, when they say location is everything, it truly is for this one-of-a-kind oceanfront home. This home, built in 2021, features 5 bedrooms, 5 and a half bathrooms, overlooks the ocean, Yaupon pier, beach volleyball courts and, of course, the sunsets are enough to help you write a novel about. Most importantly this home provides the best front row seat for the annual Fourth of July Fireworks that are set off in the ocean, almost in front of this beauty. Built to be a home, but just big enough to share with others! While the current owners did not need an elevator, they did plan for one during construction knowing one day they would need it. This immaculate home, complete with a metal roof, irrigation and, of course, all the other amenities is ready for its next chapter. Are you ready? Contact the listing agent today for your own private tour. We want you to enjoy all that Oak Island North Carolina has to offer. Showing will only be allowed on Saturdays for now, as the house is rented out weekly, for now....
