Property Description

Just two lots from the oceanfront and approximately 598 feet from the Bonito Street beach access, Sea 5 puts you right where you want to be in Whalehead Beach. This 5-bedroom, 4-full-bath, 1-half-bath Corolla retreat combines an exceptional location with extensive recent updates, making it an especially rare opportunity for those looking for a turn-key coastal investment. Lovingly maintained by the same family over the years, the home has been thoughtfully improved inside and out, while retaining the charm and functionality that make a beach home special. Recent improvements include all-new decks, exterior stairs and railings, a new septic drainfield, replacement of nearly all windows and sliders, updated flooring throughout, refreshed bathrooms, new kitchen appliances, HVAC units, furnishings and décor, a new hot tub, newly added patio and grilling area -- and so much more!! The exterior is designed for enjoying the best of the coastal lifestyle, with two levels of expansive decking wrapping around three sides of the home and stairs connecting each level. From the rear decks, take in ocean views and refreshing breezes, or head to the ground level where you'll find ample parking, a convenient dry entry with storage for beach gear and toys, and patio with hot tub and grilling area. The spacious lot also offers plenty of room for future additions. Inside, the mid-level offers a comfortable and functional bedroom layout with a bunk room and twin bedroom sharing a full hall bathroom, along with two king bedrooms—both featuring updated private bathrooms and direct deck access. The laundry and utility room are also located on this level. Upstairs, large windows fill the open living spaces with abundant natural light. The living room centers around a recently installed electric fireplace, creating a welcoming gathering space after a day at the beach. The adjoining dining area, kitchen with updated appliances, and half bathroom complete the main living level. Also located upstairs is a private queen bedroom with deck access, and a private and updated bathroom featuring a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. Step outside to the screened porch (enclosed with windows for added versatility) where you can enjoy outdoor dining, or head to either the front or rear sun deck. With its enviable location, ocean views, extensive recent improvements, and outdoor entertaining spaces, Sea 5 is a great opportunity in Whalehead Beach. Just bring your beach gear and start enjoying all that Corolla has to offer!
