About this home

Welcome to Kick Up Your Heels, the perfect place to sit back, relax, and enjoy the best of Bald Head Island living. They simply don't make beach homes like this anymore! Blending the nostalgia of classic beach living with thoughtful updates and a comfortable, modern flow, this inviting home offers the ideal setting for making lasting coastal memories. The ground level provides exceptional storage and convenience, featuring an expansive golf cart garage, a large storage area, a fish-cleaning station, and an outdoor shower, everything you need for effortless island living. One level up, the main living area welcomes you with a dramatic two-story great room anchored by a fireplace, an updated kitchen, a dining area, a laundry room, and a bedroom suite with a full bath conveniently shared with the common living spaces. A generous porch/deck overlooks the expansive common area toward the Atlantic Ocean, offering the perfect vantage point for winter sunsets and refreshing summer breezes. A second, cozy porch/deck completes the outdoor living spaces on this level. Upstairs, two mezzanines create a distinctive sense of space and separation. One leads to two guest bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath, while the other opens to the media room and spacious primary suite. The primary suite features an updated bathroom and private access to the upper screened porch, where the ocean views are even better, the summer breezes more refreshing, and the winter sunsets even more spectacular. Offered fully furnished, Kick Up Your Heels also includes two golf carts, making it easy to embrace the relaxed pace of island life. A refundable equity Lifestyle Membership to the BHI Club and a refundable Shoals Membership are available for separate purchase. If you're searching for a beach home that captures the charm and nostalgia of classic coastal days while delivering the comfort, updates, and livability of modern design, look no further. Kick Up Your Heels is ready to welcome you to the Bald Head Island lifestyle.
