About this property
Beach Barn - Nice 5BR Oceanfront Home in Heart of Surf City
Beach Barn – Relax and unwind by the sea in this renovated five bedroom, three bathroom oceanfront home, complete with a large double level deck overlooking the Atlantic. Kick back in the Adirondack chairs, stretch out on the adjustable loungers, or claim a seat at the built in wooden bar with stools—perfect for sunrise coffee, breezy lunches, or sunset happy hour with the waves as your soundtrack.
Designed with flexibility in mind, Beach Barn is ideal for groups who want a little more privacy or a little more shared space. With two kitchens, two living rooms, and two distinct levels, everyone can spread out comfortably while still enjoying time together.
Inside, you'll find a light, bright, uncluttered home with comfortable furnishings and everything you need for a relaxing week at the beach. Simply clean, easygoing, and made for unwinding. One of the best things about Beach Barn is its prime location. Set back nicely from the street—and sitting right on the sand—it feels private and peaceful, yet it's an easy walk to downtown Surf City, where you'll find restaurants, bars, shops, the fishing pier, and more.

The location was great. Easy on and off the beach, view of the sunrise and sunset. Walk to the restaurants, stores, and just about everything else. The house was set up nicely and was clean.
