About this property
Barefoot Beach South: Fantastic location, steps from sand with views of the bay!
Atlantic Beach just made #16 in the list of Top 100 Beaches in the United States, beating out even beaches in Hawaii! Truly a hidden gem, as this part of the island doesn't have public access, beyond a few cars, so it's just folks staying right there. https://www.wect.com/2023/06/21/100-best-beach-towns-us/
Full kitchen, enormous 36' x 12' patio with charcoal grill and large sectional, multiple rocking chairs, and porch swing, dining area, living room, full bathroom, queen bedroom, dual twin bedroom, two rollaway beds, laundry in unit, beach outdoor shower. Home away from home!
The entire unit of the duplex will be yours. This property is smoke-free, meaning you must leave the property completely if you wish to smoke. This is a pet-free property.
My favorite spot in the home is the massive 36' x 12' patio with the porch swing, and huge sectional seating area. I love that I can hear the waves crash from here.
Things To Do:
• Fort Macon State Park: This fort dates back to the 1800s, offers guided tours, hiking trails, & picnic areas.
• Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores: See a wide variety of marine life & exhibits.
• Water Sports: Surfing, paddleboarding, kayaking, & jetskiing.
• Fishing: You can fish from the beach, the pier, or take a charter boat out for deep-sea fishing.
• Island Time Dolphin & Sunset Tours: Sunset or dolphin-watching tour.

The space
This is a two-unit house, situated between the sound and the ocean. You’ll be in the bottom unit. Please see all the photos of the space for bedrooms, bathroom, outside living, and more.
Parking:
If there is no reservation in the other unit, please feel free to use the entire driveway. It will fit six cars. However if there is another reservation, please be sure to park your car(s) on the right of the driveway, leaving left side for the other unit. The driveway fits a total of six cars, so if you were to have more than three, you can park in the street as well.

About the host
Hosted by Christine Castro
While Boston is technically home base for me, I have always loved the Carolinas, and I'm decidedly a beach girl. So it just made sense to buy a home in a place I loved and would visit often! While this is an investment property for me, I have the flexibility with my work to work from anywhere, I pop down often to enjoy the ocean, away from the hurried pace that is Boston living.
