Whispering Oaks- Sound Front, Pet Friendly
Welcome to Whispering Oaks! The beautiful home is situated directly on Back Sound with its own sandy beach, surrounded by weathered live oaks and picturesque water views that showcase the natural beauty of the area. Enjoy the wrap-around porch and take in the iconic Cape Lookout lighthouse standing visibly on the distant horizon. Catch the ferry at the end of the road, cruise the Cape Lookout National Seashore, and check out this must-see landmark in person.
The interior of this home is as charming as the exterior is inviting. The floors are the original pine, the walls are lined with sunlit windows, and the tone is overwhelmingly peaceful. The living space is spacious yet cozy and open to the kitchen, which features blue cabinets, quartz counters, and a white farmer’s sink. There are two bedrooms downstairs, one with a queen bed, the other with three twins, perfect for the whole family. Upstairs is the primary bedroom suite. Enjoy privacy and stunning views, from watching the sunset over the water to marveling at the brilliant array of stars in the night sky.
Harkers Island seamlessly blends small-town appeal, history, and the allure of coastal living. Whispering Oaks is the Crystal Coast at its finest.
