177 Ocean Boulevard EHolden Beach, NC 28462

Ocean Views + Beach Access | Second-Row Holden Beach Home with Expansive Porch Ocean views and beach access define the experience at 177 Ocean Boulevard East, a second-row beach home on Holden Beach located across from a public beach access, making spontaneous walks to the shoreline part of everyday life. Wake to the sound of waves, step onto the porch, and watch the Atlantic shimmer in the early light--this is coastal living the way it was meant to be. Homes with ocean views and convenient beach access on Holden Beach continue to be among the island's most desirable locations. One of the home's most memorable features is the expansive covered front porch stretching across the front of the home, designed for true outdoor living. Step onto the porch, feel the ocean breeze, and the rhythm of Holden Beach life becomes instantly clear. Elevated above the street, this inviting space captures ocean breezes and water views while providing the perfect setting for rocking chairs, outdoor dining, or relaxing after time on the beach--the kind of porch where mornings begin with coffee and sea air and evenings end with the soft rhythm of waves in the distance. From the porch and living area, ocean views and coastal breezes become part of everyday living. Inside, the home feels bright, open, and connected to the outdoors. Oversized windows in the main living area flood the space with natural light, while a vaulted ceiling enhances the openness and frames ocean views, bringing the beauty of the coast directly into the living space. The open floor plan allows the living room, dining area, and kitchen to flow together comfortably, creating a welcoming layout for gathering and entertaining. The kitchen offers ample cabinetry and workspace while maintaining the home's easy coastal style. With four bedrooms and two full bathrooms--two bedrooms and one bath on each level--the layout offers comfortable accommodations and flexibility across both floors. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout most of the home, with tiled bathrooms, offering durability and easy maintenance well suited for beach living. Outdoor living continues at the ground level, where shaded space beneath the home provides room for gathering and storing beach equipment. A dedicated outdoor shower room makes rinsing off after sandy beach days simple, and there is practical storage for bikes, fishing gear, beach chairs, and boards. Major updates provide peace of mind. Since purchasing in 2021, the owners have replaced the HVAC system and water heater, and in 2025 a FORTIFIED roof was installed, offering enhanced storm protection and potential insurance benefits. Beyond the home, Holden Beach is known for its wide shoreline, relaxed coastal charm, and east-west island orientation that allows both ocean sunrises and sunsets to be enjoyed from the beach. Just a few blocks behind the home, the Intracoastal Waterway offers boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, and shell hunting along the shoreline. Offering 1,652 heated square feet, ocean views, inviting outdoor living spaces, and a location just steps from the sand, this property captures the Holden Beach coastal lifestyle. Ideal as a personal coastal home, second home, or vacation rental opportunity, the home offers the location and layout many buyers seek along the North Carolina coast. Furnishings, with limited exceptions, will convey.
