--- ABOUT THE SPACE ---
Welcome to Seaborne - our luxury 4 bedroom/4 bath home, 900 feet from the Atlantic on North Carolina’s Crystal Coast! We have tried to think of every detail to make your stay as calming, joyful, and memorable as humanly possible! From our beautiful gourmet kitchen with its high-end appliances to our brand new backyard getaway, we have sought at every turn to make your stay something special.
“The backyard was an getaway, ideal for unwinding after a day at the beach. The proximity to the beach was very convenient for us. Having access to a golf cart as well was the cherry on top.” – Carly K.
PLEASE NOTE: Your booking is not final until the signed rental agreement has been returned. The pool is only heated from April through October. More details are noted below.
MAIN FLOORING LIVING AREA ---
As you enter the light-filled main floor, you’re greeted with a outstanding open floor plan. The designer Living Room, embellished in coastal pastels and with an intimate gas fireplace, opens to a gourmet Kitchen and a formal Dining Room that hits all the right ‘Beach Retreat’ notes with its driftwood décor.
Off the Living Room, there’s a gracious front porch, a great place for a coffee after some early morning surfing!
The Dining Room leads out to a comfortable deck that overlooks the new 14’x30’ heated, saltwater Pool and huge Outdoor Spa. The Living Room itself extends to a phenomenal Kitchen with a humongous walk-in Pantry/Laundry combo and the ideal Coffee Station/Cocktail Bar! The Pantry is entirely supplied with every known kitchen appliance, plus all the pet perks your dog could want.
The Kitchen itself features Kitchen Aid and Fisher Paykel, along with a chic gas range, a wine refrigerator and more, so every meal here, big or modest, will feel like gourmet magazine come to life!
The Bar, whether for coffees or beverages, is ideally outfitted with plenty of bar tools, glasses and all the ways to brew the ideal cup of 4 J’s (our local favorite) coffee! And, there’s split zone surround sound in the living, dining and kitchen areas to ensure a great ambiance whether you’re entertaining or just chillin’ with a margarita and some classic Beach Boys tunes.
“Cooking in the kitchen with my wife was fun since you had plenty of space to prep. From an instant pot, crock pot and great coffee machine, the kitchen made life painless.” – William S.

DOWNSTAIRS LIVING AREA ---
Next, head downstairs for what makes Seaborne really special. First, there’s a classy mudroom that leads directly to the Carport. This is our main entry/exit point - great for your daily coming and going.
Off that is the ultimate Game Room, starting with a luxury Infinity Game Table, a big TV with fun LED lighting, and hexagon ottomans – so everybody can pull one up and join in! You’ll also find a collection of kids’s books in the cabinet.
The Carport has its own newly added Half Bath and huge Outdoor Shower, so it’s simple to come in off the beach or step out of the pool without having to head upstairs. There’s also plenty of gear, from beach chairs to soft top surfboards, so you can load up the golf cart with your group to catch some waves or just sink your toes into the sand!
Seaborne definitely has something for everybody, especially bicycles - the locals’ favorite means of transportation, so you too can appreciate all the bicycle paths that start just off our cul-de-sac and ride to town or take in a sunset. If you’re the stay-at-home type, there’s a big hammock around the corner with your name on it!
The spot where you can really make some stunning memories though is the fabulous screened-in Outdoor Kitchen off the Carport. There’s a dining table for 8, the ideal lounge-y sectional with its own Intelligent ROKU TV, and an countless stainless-steel counter with a prep sink and an accompanying giant freezer chest for cold drinks - or - your catch of the day!
Off the Outdoor Kitchen, there’s a Wilmington Grille, along with a fire pit seating area for those nights where nothing will do but some s'mores and stories! This entire entertainment area leads out to the new saltwater, heated Pool and Outdoor Spa and the secluded backyard – giving the beach some serious competition!
