A rare opportunity to build your custom home on this oceanfront site located on Oak Island. All necessary preparations are already in place. This homesite offers more than an incredible coastal setting--it offers the peace of mind that comes with extensive due diligence already completed, including environmental studies and a letter from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers confirming no wetlands jurisdiction. The property also benefits from the Town of Oak Island's recent 2025/2026 beach nourishment project, adding to the long-term stewardship of this treasured stretch of coastline. Years of meticulous landscaping and dune maintenance by current owner have created thick, established vegetation throughout the dunes, providing a beautiful natural buffer while enhancing the property's coastal character. The previous building envelope reflected a 46' x 34' buildable footprint, not including decks, there's flexibility to create the oceanfront home you've envisioned--whether a private coastal retreat, vacation rental investment, or both. Buyers are advised to conduct their own survey to confirm building envelope. And the location makes enjoying Oak Island effortless. Spend the morning on the beach, then walk, bike, or take your golf cart to Middleton Park, local shops, restaurants, parks, and, of course, everyone's favorite--ice cream! Oceanfront homesites are rare. A property with this level of preparation, established dune vegetation, and convenient access to the heart of Oak Island is even harder to find.
