About this home

Rare ICW-Front Townhouse with Private Elevator -- Heron Cove, Oak Island, NC Best of both worlds with an Intracoastal Waterway view and 0.7 miles to the beach at the Ocean. Unit B2 at Heron Cove is a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 1,560 sq ft townhouse built in 2019 on its own private driveway off E. Yacht Drive. All three floors are yours -- private entrance, no shared hallways, no common corridors. The Garaventa in-unit elevator (installed 2020, serviced February 2025; records available) connects every level. The second floor is the heart of the home. An open family room flows into a kitchen with Acacia hardwood floors, granite countertops, and a tile backsplash. A full bedroom and bathroom on this level, plus a dedicated laundry and pantry area. Step outside onto the ICW-facing deck -- wire railing keeps the water view completely unobstructed. The third floor holds two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, giving sleeping quarters complete separation from the main living level. Custom Levelor blinds on every window throughout. On the ground level, a private outdoor shower sits under the second-floor overhang -- ideal after a day at the beach or on the water. A large private storage room provides dedicated space for gear without touching the living area. An attached carport completes the ground floor. Refrigerator, dishwasher, range, microwave, TV mounts, and storage shelving all convey with the property. HOA coverage includes the exterior building structure, landscaping, water, sewer, taxes on the building and land, and NFIP flood insurance (policy on file; zero prior claims) -- a rare combination that consolidates major coastal ownership costs into a single monthly payment. Oak Island has no high-rises and no traffic lights. Consistently ranked among the most affordable coastal communities on the East Coast, with a pace and character that sets it apart from the typical resort market.
