There are oceanfront homes, and then there are homes designed around the ocean. Set along the dunes of East Beach, 188 Station House Way offers an extraordinary coastal retreat with approximately 6,350 total heated square feet between the main residence and crofter, eight total bedrooms, eight full baths and two half baths. Designed with a reverse floor plan to place its primary living spaces above the dunes, the home captures remarkable panoramic views of the Atlantic--including sweeping vistas toward Frying Pan Shoals--from interiors and expansive porches created to keep the ocean at the center of daily life. The upper level is the heart of the residence. Coffered and tongue-and-groove ceilings bring architectural character overhead while an ocean-facing living room features a gas-log fireplace, custom built-ins and sliding doors opening directly onto the broad wraparound porch. Here, indoor and outdoor living flow naturally together... from the first light across the Atlantic to the last glow settling over the island, the changing sky becomes part of the architecture itself. The adjacent dining room offers seating for twelve with built-in cabinetry and a dedicated coffee bar. Designed for both serious cooking and effortless entertaining, the kitchen features custom soft-close cabinetry with dovetail construction, quartz countertops, custom tile backsplash and an oversized island with prep sink and seating for four. A commercial-grade seven-burner gas range with two ovens, dual dishwashers and integrated refrigeration provide substantial capacity, while a separate scullery keeps preparation and cleanup tucked conveniently away. Also on the upper level, the primary suite creates a private retreat of its own. The bedroom opens to a private front balcony and is accompanied by a generous walk-in closet and beautifully appointed bath with separate vanities, soaking tub and large multi-head tile-and-glass shower. An elevator connects both levels of the main residence. The first floor was designed with family and guests in mind. Five bedrooms each enjoy an ensuite bath, allowing everyone their own private space. A generous front foyer/parlor welcomes arrivals, while the large rear game room--with paneled walls and built-ins--provides another gathering place just steps from the covered porch. A wet bar and substantial laundry room with extensive cabinetry, island workspace, two washing machines and two dryers add the practical infrastructure a home of this scale deserves. Separate from the main residence, the detached three-car garage is topped by a two-bedroom, two-bath crofter arranged as two distinct guest spaces, each with its own entrance and ensuite bath. It is a particularly thoughtful configuration for extended family or guests who appreciate both connection and independence. Outside, multiple covered porches and balconies invite life into the salt air. Professionally landscaped grounds frame a winding paver drive, while a private wooden walkway extends from the rear of the home across the protected dunes toward East Beach. Along the way, an octagonal coastal outbuilding offers convenient storage for the pieces of island life that inevitably follow you home from the water. For all its scale, 188 Station House Way never loses sight of what makes an island home special. There are places to gather and places to retreat; room for a full house and spaces quiet enough for one. Above it all are the porches, the dunes and the Atlantic--always reminding you exactly where you are. Refundable Lifestyle BHIC membership and Shoals Club membership available for separate purchase.

188 Station House Way, Bald Head Island

$15,999,000

There are homes that occupy remarkable places, and there are homes that seem to belong to them. Set along the dunes of Bald Head Island's East Beach, 11 East Beach Drive is a singular oceanfront estate conceived with a scale, permanence & architectural grace rarely encountered on the island. Designed by Cothran Harris & built by Telesis, the property unfolds across approximately one acre as a private coastal compound, where the Atlantic is both backdrop & constant presence. From arrival, the estate reveals itself gradually. Mature coastal landscaping surrounds a collection of shingled structures connected by porches, decks & outdoor living spaces. Deep rooflines, weathered shingles & thoughtful architectural details give the property a timeless quality, while its arrangement across the site creates something increasingly rare: space, privacy & room to gather. Inside the main residence, craftsmanship takes center stage. A soaring barrel-vaulted great room pairs extensive custom millwork & dark hardwood floors with walls of windows overlooking the protected dunes & ocean. Above, a graceful curved gallery follows the architecture before culminating in an arched window that frames sea & sky like artwork. The kitchen was created for a home meant to be genuinely enjoyed, w/ generous work surfaces, custom cabinetry, substantial cooking & refrigeration capacity, multiple work zones & distinctive tilework. Nearby dining & gathering spaces maintain an effortless connection to the ocean beyond. Throughout the residence, generous rooms coexist w/ intimate retreats. Bedrooms & living areas are thoughtfully distributed, allowing a house full of family& friends to gather comfortably without surrendering privacy. That philosophy extends beyond the main residence. Separate guest accommodations provide living & sleeping spaces of their own, creating exceptional flexibility for extended family & guests while remaining connected to the larger estate. Rather than feeling like accessory spaces, they contribute to the property's unmistakable sense of being a true private compound. Expansive covered & screened porches extend the architecture toward the landscape. An open-air kitchen & gathering area offers substantial cabinetry, grilling station, custom hood & island seating beneath an exposed-beam ceiling. Elsewhere, broad decking links the estate's structures around a remarkable outdoor living environment anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace & covered dining pavilion. These are not incidental porches added to an oceanfront home; they are integral living spaces designed for the way life is actually enjoyed on Bald Head Island. French doors stand open between indoors & out. Rocking chairs face the dunes. Morning light arrives over the Atlantic. Evenings can move naturally from dinner beneath the pavilion to conversation around the fireplace while the ocean sounds beyond the dune line. Approximately one acre along East Beach affords the rare luxury of room to breathe. Broad protected dunes create a beautiful natural foreground between the residence & Atlantic, while the property's scale allows landscaping, structures & gathering spaces to exist without crowding one another. Despite the estate's considerable size, the result feels remarkably private & intimate. Built in 2009 & held by its original owners, 11 East Beach carries an intentionality that photographs & measurements alone cannot fully communicate. Curves repeat. Sightlines have purpose. Materials transition naturally from one space to another. Architecture, landscape & setting speak the same language. It is a home designed not merely for spectacular weekends, but for generations of them--for children & grandchildren, old friends & new traditions, quiet mornings & crowded tables. 11 East Beach Drive is more than a residence on the ocean. It is a Bald Head Island estate in the fullest sense of the word--and an opportunity unlikely to be repeated.
