23236 Surf Side Drive Lot 38, Rodanthe

Nestled just two homes back from the ocean, this 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath beach retreat offers views that rival oceanfront living and all the coastal vibes you’ve been dreaming of. Whether you’re soaking it in for yourself or offering it as a top-tier short-term rental, this home captures the laid-back beach charm you have been dreaming of. Lovingly cared for with thoughtful updates throughout, Kacee’s Retreat is equipped with everything you need for easy living. A brand-new cargo lift (Lift It USA, 1000 lbs) makes unloading a breeze, while the new electric panel, bulkhead driveway, fresh paint (2022), new roof (2021), and an updated top deck have you set for years of worry-free enjoyment. The six-person hot tub (new in 2020) invites you to kick back and unwind, letting the sea breezes and sound of crashing waves work their magic. After a dip in the ocean, rinse off in the outdoor shower before heading up to the upper deck for unbeatable sunrise views. With three decks, off-street parking, a fish cleaning table, and a charcoal grill, every inch of this home is primed for fun beach days. Inside, the layout is perfect for hosting family or guests. The first floor offers two pyramid-bunk bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath—ideal for kids or younger guests. Upstairs on the second floor, two queen bedrooms share a full bath, while the primary king suite enjoys its own ensuite bath with deck access and more of those incredible views. The top floor is where everyone will gather—a spacious open concept living area with a large dining table and breakfast bar perfect for enjoying meals together. A half bath is tucked away for convenience. And if you’re up early, nothing beats sipping your coffee on the deck as the sun rises over the ocean. You might never want to leave! For outdoor lovers, Pea Island’s wildlife and scenic trails are close by, offering plenty of adventure and serenity. If action is what you seek, Rodanthe Pier is great for fishing, or take kiteboarding lessons at Real or Kitty Hawk Kites. As the day winds down, head to one of the local waterfront spots like Good Winds or Waterman’s for dinner with a side of breathtaking sunset views. Kacee’s Retreat isn’t just a beach house—it’s a way of life. Come experience it for yourself today and see what makes this coastal retreat so special! *Listing provided courtesy of the MLS.
