Spectacular Oceanfront Family Cottage Retreat in Atlantic Beach!

Graley Cottage exudes all the charm of a classic beach cottage from the 50’s but has been renovated and beautifully furnished to include all the modern conveniences. Just a short walk from the deck over the dunes to the beach and surf, Graley Cottage is oceanfront in a quiet family neighborhood on a cul-de-sac in the highly desirable Club Colony area of Atlantic Beach. It features 6 bedrooms (including two separate master suites), 6 baths, 3 separate family/tv areas (great for when the kids want to watch their own movies and ground floor playroom has a sofa pull out queen bed so can serve as 7th bedroom), a spacious oceanfront family room and adjoining spacious dining room for your family gatherings, and a fabulous deck for enjoying the dunes and ocean views

The cottage is equipped with high speed internet , wireless internet, telephone, DVD players, Hulu live service and Disney Plus, a 55 inch UHD LED Smart TV in the first floor family room, a 32 inch Smart TV in the upstairs family room and 42 inch HD Smart TV in ground floor playroom. Each of the bedrooms and common areas have a 10 inch tablet for your entertainment convenience. There is ample outdoor parking for up to 5 cars.

The first floor exterior features a large covered beach side porch and sun deck with dining table, dining chairs and rocking chairs perfect for enjoying that first cup of coffee in the morning and for relaxing sunset dinners or late night cocktails. While you are relaxing on the deck, the kids can play in the swings, swinging bench or hammock below. The first floor exterior also features a covered street side porch perfect for just hanging out in the rocking chairs. Both beach side and street side porches are connected by a lovely wraparound deck (938 sq ft decking).

The interior first floor consists of the spacious family room and master bedroom (with a Queen bed and ensuite bath with tub & shower) both overlooking the beach, two additional bedrooms (each with a Queen bed) that share a jack & jill full bath with walk-in shower, another smaller study/bedroom with a twin bed and a nearby full bath with tub & shower, a beautiful fully-equipped kitchen with custom made cabinetry and granite counter tops which opens to the dining room.

The second floor features a second master bedroom with a queen bed, ensuite bath with walk-in shower, and walk-in closet and nice panoramic ocean views, a second bedroom with two double beds (and a fold out twin in the closet) and a nearby full bath with a tub & shower, and a second family room perfect for kids to hang out and play or watch tv. These upstairs rooms are stocked with books for all age levels.

The street level features a utility room with washer/dryer, packed beach bags and a large playroom with sofa pull away queen bed, blow up queen air mattress, smart TV, bath with 2 walk-in showers and bathroom. The playroom is stocked with games and crafts to entertain the kids. There is an adjoining garage with a second refrigerator/freezer, a large Weber gas grill, a Weber charcoal grill, a large storage area with road bicycles, beach toys, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, outdoor games and related beach gear. Outside the garage beachside are more beach toys, kayak, 2 paddle boards, long board, boogie boards and an outside shower with hot/cold water- good for post beach showering.

In short, Graley Cottage is the perfect place for family fun where you can enjoy all the ocean has to offer from just a shells throw from the surf. You will want to return every year.

Family celebration for fathers 80th birthday
We chose this home for an extended family weekend to celebrate my fathers 80th birthday. As this is the first birthday after my mother passed away in December of 2022 (after 59 years of marriage), this time away as a family group was extremely important for all of us. Thank you for providing your lovely home as it was the perfect setting. There was absolutely nothing that could have been better for the family healing and celebration of our patriarch.

Charm and Amenities Galore
We invited our adult children 5 grandchildren, and one boyfriend to stay with us. The house was perfect with separate spaces, comfortable beds, and amenities galore. The photos don't do it justice. The kitchen is small but efficient and very well stocked. We had everything we needed for the beach and a lot of extras. we will definitely be back!

Charming Home at Atlantic Beach
We loved our stay at this charming home at Atlantic Beach. The house is beautiful with every thing you need for a week at the beach provided. We had every age and there was lots of privacy when needed. The living area was comfortable but we spent must of our time, when not on the beach, on the porch and deck. This home is in a nice area away from the crowds yet close to everything we needed in Atlantic Beach, Morehead City and Beaufort. Stephanie is a wonderful hostess! We finally found a beach house that we look forward to going back to year after year.
