Kure Beach Park - Great Investment

Did you know the Town of Kure Beach recently purchased the Rolling Surf motel. This older motel will be knocked down to make way for the Kure Beach Ocean Front Park -- a nearly $4 million dollar investment. It will be public space, adjacent to the restaurants and fishing pier.

Imagine have a great beach get-away that's just a short walk to the park! I encourage you to check out 205 Sth 5th Ave. This 3BR, 2BA beach get-away is just a short walk to the park and the ocean. And priced at $274,900, you won't fund a more affordbale buy!

I invite you to check out more pictures here:

Please feel free to call me, or your agent if you would like to schedule a showing!

  • There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face. -Ben Williams
  • A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself. -Josh Billings
  • The average dog is a nicer person than the average person.-Andy Rooney
  • We give dogs time we can spare, space we can spare and love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made. -M. Acklam
