About 273 E Second St

This Ocean Isle Beach home announces itself with panoramic marsh vistas and a considered reverse floor plan that elevates the primary suite and main living spaces for maximum view and privacy. Designed for relaxed coastal living, the residence is offered furnished and truly move-in ready—a turnkey option for a primary residence, second home, or short-term rental investment.

The main living level is open and refined: light oak hardwood floors run through the shared living, dining and kitchen areas, while plantation shutters frame views across the marsh. The kitchen is detailed with white beadboard cabinetry, a generous center island, granite countertops and a ceramic tile backsplash—a mix of casual coastal charm and practical surfaces for everyday use. Architectural touches including wainscoting, crown molding and a gas-log fireplace lend warmth and polish to the living room.

An elevator serves all three stops of the home, providing easy access between the large covered porches (both levels), the garage level and the elevated primary suite. Outdoors, those porches present room for seating and dining while you take in coastal breezes and long marshline horizons—the kind of space that extends living and entertaining beyond interior rooms.

The primary suite is a serene retreat with a walk-in closet, dual granite vanities and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. The first level has been thoughtfully laid out with two separate bedroom wings that provide privacy for guests or family; each wing includes separate vanities and toilets with a shared central bath/shower area. Practical amenities include an in-unit laundry and a spacious two-car garage with abundant storage for bikes, beach gear and water toys.

Built in 2017 and maintained with an eye to coastal durability and design, this home sits just moments from convenient beach access and offers the combination of comfortable finishes, functional planning and strong rental/second-home appeal. With its furnished presentation, elevator, marsh views and attractive finishes, 273 E Second St is a sophisticated coastal offering ready for immediate enjoyment.

Neighborhood & Location

Ocean Isle Beach is a low-key coastal community known for family-friendly beaches, fishing, and relaxed island living. The town’s small commercial corridor offers seafood restaurants, boutique shops and services, while the marshes and soundlines invite boating, birding and paddle sports. Residents value short drives to regional amenities and the welcoming community atmosphere—seasonal events and local markets add to the island’s charm. Properties here appeal to buyers seeking waterfront recreation, laid-back nightlife, and a lifestyle centered on outdoor time and coastal comforts.

Market Insights

Ocean Isle Beach remains a highly desirable micro-market for buyers seeking coastal properties—especially furnished, turnkey homes that can serve as rentals or second residences. This listing’s broker price of $1,375,000 aligns with the property’s $632/sf estimate, placing it squarely in the upper tier of local single-family inventory. Demand for well-appointed beach homes has kept inventory relatively tight for this product type; similarly configured homes often move quickly when price and presentation are in sync. For sellers, current conditions favor well-marketed, turnkey listings that highlight rental income potential and low-maintenance finishes. Buyers should note that waterfront and marsh-view properties tend to retain premium pricing and see steady interest across peak seasons. The listing’s three-stop elevator, recent construction (2017) and turnkey furnishing increase its competitiveness. While exact days-on-market and inventory levels fluctuate seasonally, this asset class in Ocean Isle Beach historically performs better than inland averages—meaning motivated buyers should be prepared to act decisively and consider financing and rental strategy early in the process.
