The property has granite counter tops, wood & tile floors, a entirely outfitted kitchen with dishwasher, microwave, toaster oven, coffee pot, Keurig, washer/dryer, Cable/Wifi and 2 HDTVs.
Outside, you can appreciate some peaceful time on the covered patio, or listening to the ocean from 1 of 2 covered decks or an amazing 4th floor crow’s nest where you don't just hear the ocean, you also get some phenomenal view of it - ideal for a sunrise coffee or sunset drink.
Ample parking for 4 cars and did we mention it's just 3 BLOCKS FROM THE BEACH!!!
NOTE: Casa Pura Vida NC is environmentally conscious so the intelligent thermostats are set to not go below 72 degrees in the summer. There are two thermostats in the home. One controls temperature for the third floor and the other controls temperature for the first and second floors. There is one thermostat that controls the temperature for the first and second floors in the dining room area (at the bottom of the stairs leading from the second floor to the third floor). The other thermostat is in the primary bedroom on the third floor next to the door closest to the bathroom. There are also fans in the home to assist with cooling.
