About this home
SOME HOMES ARE BEAUTIFUL. OTHERS ARE UNFORGETTABLE! WELCOME TO COASTAL PEARL! Beautifully renovated and offered fully furnished, this five-bedroom, four-bath oceanfront home presents a turnkey opportunity on the desirable west end of Holden Beach--recently voted the No. 1 Best Beach in North Carolina in the 2026 USA TODAY 10 BEST Readers' Choice Awards. Enjoy sweeping Atlantic Ocean views, natural dunes and direct access to the sand from the home's private beach walkway. The stretch of beach directly in front of the property is typically quiet and lightly traveled, offering owners and guests a more private and relaxed oceanfront experience. Featured on American Dream Homes on HGTV, this classic Holden Beach cottage was extensively transformed in 2025-2026 with modern finishes and thoughtful improvements throughout. Exterior upgrades include new windows, soffit and fascia, weather-resistant house wrap, board-and-batten siding, wrapped columns, refreshed decking, vinyl railings, updated exterior lighting, fresh paint, new landscaping and expanded parking. Inside, the home features luxury vinyl plank flooring, updated lighting, new blinds, new interior doors and fresh sheetrock in place of the original paneling. All four bathrooms have been beautifully redesigned with new showers or tubs, glass enclosures, cabinetry, countertops, fixtures, mirrors and lighting. The kitchen is equipped with new appliances and new cabinets and countertops, while the open living and dining areas provide a comfortable gathering place with beautiful ocean views. Five bedrooms and four full bathrooms offer generous accommodations for family and guests. New indoor and outdoor furnishings, televisions, appliances, washer and dryer are included, allowing the next owner to begin enjoying--or renting--the home immediately. With its extensive renovation, peaceful west-end setting, direct oceanfront access and turnkey furnishings, this property is ideally suited as a second home, family retreat or vacation-rental investment. Rental history and income projections are available upon request.
