Welcome to The Grand Carolina — The House That Has Everything.
Some vacation homes give you a place to sleep and a short walk to the beach. The Grand Carolina gives you an entire vacation under one roof — 3,600 square feet of professionally designed, upscale coastal living in Pine Knoll Shores, the quietest and most naturally beautiful stretch of the Crystal Coast, tucked into a private cul-de-sac beneath the live oak canopy.
This is the house for the group that wants options. Four bedrooms and four full bathrooms. A downstairs master suite with a fireplace and a luxury skylit tub. A chef`s kitchen loaded for serious cooking, with a wet bar and a dining table that seats all ten. A sunroom with a shuffleboard table. An upstairs loft loaded with a PS4, Rock Band, board games, and bean bags. A main living room with a fireplace. And a garage that is less a garage and more a Crystal Coast outfitter`s shop — a 4-person golf cart, a double kayak, two paddleboards, four beach cruiser bikes, a ping pong table, oars, life jackets, and beach gear, all included.
Step into the backyard and the list keeps going: a 6-person hot tub, an outdoor shower, an outdoor seating area, and a 3-in-1 griddle, pellet smoker, and grill that handles everything from morning pancakes to evening brisket. And the Pine Knoll Shores luxury community amenities complete the picture — private oceanfront beach parking and access at Ocean Park, plus two community boat launches — with beach and amenity fobs waiting for you in the house.
The Grand Carolina is the rare house where a group of ten can spend a rainy day without anyone getting restless and a sunny week without anyone running out of things to do.
🏡 The Layout
One bedroom down, three up. The main entry opens to a loft on your right — a TV, reading area, and coffee-lounge seating that becomes the quiet morning corner. Down the hallway you reach the downstairs master suite, then the dining area with its table for ten, and from there either straight back to the sunroom and back deck or into the chef`s kitchen and main living room. The living room anchors the home with a TV, fireplace, and cozy seating, connected to both the kitchen and sunroom. Walk through the kitchen to reach the laundry room, a full bathroom, the garage, and a second staircase upstairs. Two staircases mean the upper floor is reachable from either end of the house.
👑 The Master Suite — Downstairs, Private & Luxurious
King bed, fireplace, and a large mounted TV. The en-suite earns the word luxury — a soaking tub beneath a skylight that fills the room with natural light, a separate walk-in shower, dual vanities, and generous storage. Its downstairs position gives the primary guests privacy from the three upstairs bedrooms plus single-level access to the kitchen, living room, and outdoor spaces.
🛌 Four Bedrooms — Three En-Suite, One Flexible Family Room
Master Suite (Downstairs): King, en-suite with skylit tub, separate shower, dual vanities Bedroom 2 (Upstairs): King, private en-suite with shower-tub combo Bedroom 3 (Upstairs): Queen, TV, private en-suite with shower-tub combo Bedroom 4 (Upstairs): Twin-over-twin bunk plus a queen — the flexible room for kids, friend groups, or extended family. Three sleeping surfaces; uses the nearby upstairs full bathroom rather than a private en-suite
With four full bathrooms across the home — three of them private en-suites — even a group of ten moves through the house without a morning bottleneck.
🍳 The Chef`s Kitchen, Dining & Wet Bar
A true chef`s kitchen — loaded with every essential for a proper group meal, professionally designed, and positioned at the center of the home`s social flow. The dining area sits just off the kitchen with a table that seats all ten, and the separate wet bar with its own sink and glassware keeps drink service out of the cook`s way.
🎯 The Sunroom
Off the main living room, the sunroom is the play space — a full shuffleboard table and a 4-top game table that works for a casual breakfast, an afternoon card game, or a late-night poker session. It leads directly to the back deck, the natural bridge between inside and out.
🎮 The Upstairs Loft — Family Entertainment Headquarters
A large desk with board and card games anchors one side, doubling as a real workspace. A TV, a PS4, and Rock Band turn it into a game room the moment the controllers come out. A couch and two large plush bean bags make it the sink-in hangout the kids claim immediately. For a group of ten, this second entertainment space upstairs — separate from the main living room and the sunroom — means the house never feels crowded.
🛺 The Garage — Stocked Like a Crystal Coast Outfitter
Not a place to park — a fully stocked adventure shop, included with your stay. A 4-person golf cart for cruising the neighborhood and running to the beach. A double kayak and two paddleboards with oars and life jackets for the sound and waterways. Four beach cruiser bikes for the flat Pine Knoll Shores streets. A ping pong table, plus beach chairs and games ready to load up. No rental fees, no equipment runs — just open the garage and the day organizes itself.
🔥 The Backyard
Built for the hours after the beach. The 6-person hot tub is the centerpiece. The outdoor seating area handles the group for evening conversation. The outdoor shower keeps the sand outside where it belongs. And the 3-in-1 griddle, pellet smoker, and grill does everything — pancakes on the griddle in the morning, a low-and-slow brisket through the afternoon, burgers for the evening crowd.
🏖️ Beach Access & Pine Knoll Shores Luxury Community Amenities
The Grand Carolina includes the full suite of Pine Knoll Shores luxury community amenities — a genuine step above standard beach access.
Ocean Park — Private oceanfront beach parking and access reserved for community members and guests. No public parking scramble, no crowds. And you can take the golf cart directly from the house to the beach access — crossing NC-58 is required, but there`s a protected crosswalk that makes it safe and simple.
Brock Basin — A community boat launch, ramp, and dock for guests bringing watercraft.
McNeil Park — An additional boat ramp and launch, giving guests a second water-access point (no boat docking at this location).
Your stay includes both a beach access fob and a community amenity fob, located in the house. Paired with the included kayak and paddleboards, this level of water access is exceptional.
