Aquarium #159 - Soundfront Home on Wrightsville Beach w/ Private Dock!

Aquarium #159 is a spacious sound front home that is truly a boater’s paradise. Top location on Wrightsville Beach for a family beach and boat vacation on the quiet, peaceful South Lumina. This home offers it all and is a rare find as it features spectacular sound and ocean views from four decks and a private deep-water boat slip, dock, and gazebo on Banks Channel. There’s a calm, secluded beach at low tide on the sound side, and convenient beach access is just a 5-minute walk away. Entertainment options are endless with a ping pong table, board games, and plenty of water toys and games to play on the beach. Walk to Crystal Pier, restaurants, and coffee shops such as Oceanic and Sundays, or check out the local surf shops only .5 miles from the house.

Family Gathering

We bring our 3 children and their families to Wrightsville Beach every year or two. This was a great house to congregate in, huge kitchen, lots of bedrooms plus a supply of beach toys. The grandkids really enjoyed having the dock for fishing, crabbing and swimming. This is second year to stay in this house and so far it’s our favorite,

All Under One Roof

Great location, beautiful sunset views from rooftop and of Wrightsville Beach. We had a great time surprising our daughter on her birthday with our family and friends. She loved that we were all able to stay under one roof. The rooms are spacious and the set up of the home is great. We truly had a wonderful extended weekend all together.

Great house but needs new cook top.

Beautiful home with amazing views. House was very clean and well maintained. The only down side was the cook top that only had 2 burners working and the pans were terrible, every thing stuck to them. With a large family to cook for it was disappointing. A House this beautiful with such a huge kitchen should have a functioning cooktop and decent pots and pans
