114 NW 23rd St, Oak Island, NC, 28465

The front porch at 114 NW 23rd St sets the tone: a relaxed, social space where neighbors wave and evenings unfold slowly after a day at the beach. This coastal cottage captures the uncomplicated rhythm of island life with 2 bedrooms, 1 bath and 924 square feet arranged for comfort and easy maintenance. Thoughtful touches and a breezy layout make the interior practical and welcoming — exactly what you want for a getaway, a rental, or a steady year-round home.

Step inside to a kitchen designed for everyday cooking and casual entertaining. The well-laid-out footprint places the adjacent laundry close at hand so household tasks feel less like work and more like part of island living. Two cozy bedrooms sit apart from the main living area, offering privacy at night while keeping everything compact and efficient during the day. The single full bathroom is arranged to be fully functional today and readily updated to suit your aesthetic if you prefer.

Outside, practical features elevate the property for coastal life: a hot/cold outdoor shower streamlines sandy return trips, and two backyard storage buildings deliver real utility — room for bikes, beach chairs, rods, and the extras that make a seaside home usable. The yard is intentionally low-maintenance so you can spend more time on the water and less on upkeep.
