The Family Beach House- a coastal haven just steps away from Wrightsville shore!
Welcome to "The Family Beach House", where you are invited to make life-long memories with your family and friends! Enjoy our charming, historic beach house, located just steps away from the beautiful shoreline of Wrightsville Beach. One of our favorite perks of our house is the location! Not only is it within walking distance to restaurants, bars, shops, and Robert's market... our beach access (#24) is located halfway between both of the public accesses and therefore is typically less crowded. This timeless gem has been beautifully renovated to blend the character and charm of its past with modern upgrades, making it the perfect cozy, coastal escape for families and groups of friends to gather.
Inside, you’ll find a thoughtfully designed layout to accommodate larger groups. Starting with a glance at the layout of bedrooms, the main floor features a smaller queen bedroom that provides easy access to the first floor. While upstairs offers two spacious king bedrooms, each designed with relaxation in mind. One of these bedrooms serves as the primary suite with an en suite bathroom. There is also a queen bedroom, that shares a full-size bath in the hallway with the secondary king bedroom. The "Bunk Room" is a versatile retreat for children or adult friends, featuring three twin beds, a set of bunk beds, and also stores a pull-out trundle bed if needed. The "Bunk Room" has a wall mounted Smart TV that provides a secluded space for children to pile in for a bedtime movie. It also includes an en suite bathroom with room to share.
With open living spaces downstairs this house gives plenty of options for everyone to spread out, whether lounging in the living room, sharing meals in the dining room, or reading on the front porch, this home is perfect for gathering! The fully stocked, open kitchen includes everything you would need to prepare a meal with a big group. We also offer a charcoal grill to cook up a coastal catch. There is a separate coffee/cocktail bar stocked to enjoy in the morning with a 12-pot traditional coffee maker and filters, along with a Keurig machine. And for Happy Hour all the essential tools and glasses you would want to mix up your favorite cocktail or pour a glass of crisp Rose'. For added convenience, there’s a spacious laundry room with an extra refrigerator for storing bags of ice and drinks, as well as overflow storage for food or beach coolers. And of course full size laundry machines.
The spacious front porch is our personal favorite place to relax! It invites you to soak in the ocean views, sounds, and salty breeze. It's the perfect spot for morning coffee, a midday beach read or nap, and of course Happy Hours drinks. There is also an outdoor dining table for card games and meals. But don't forget to try the outdoor shower after a long day in the sun and on the sand, before retreating to the front porch or for a more private spot, enjoy the adirondack chairs in the back yard.
Wrightsville Beach, located just minutes from Wilmington, North Carolina, is a top destination for vacationers seeking sun, surf, and a laid-back beach town vibe. While staying at Wrightsville Beach, you'll have access to a wide variety of activities that make it easy to fill your days with adventure, relaxation, and exploration. With its perfect combination of outdoor recreation, history, and culture, a vacation at Wrightsville Beach offers endless possibilities for every type of traveler. Whether you're looking to relax on the beach, explore Wilmington’s historic charm, or dive into adventure on the water, this coastal gem has something for everyone.

Baby Shower Weekend
This house was so well put together. We rented it for a celebratory weekend. The butler's pantry, equipped with a second fridge was key! The manager was great about communicating ahead of time (items the house was stocked with/answering questions) and throughout the stay as questions arose. The decor was a perfect neutral background and created an easy place to set up for a gathering. The bedrooms and number of full baths ensured everyone was comfortable. The parking situation was the real winner! Not only is there street parking available, but behind and on the side of the house the driveway was able to hold 8 vehicles! We all enjoyed our stay and would come back any time!
