Hightide #215 | Ocean & Sound Views | Crow’s Nest + Elevator | Sleeps 15

Hightide #215 | Sound & Ocean Views in the Heart of Carolina Beach

Welcome to Hightide #215 — where you wake up to ocean breezes, spend your days between the beach and the sound, and end every evening watching the sky catch fire over the water from your own crow’s nest. Located at 910 Canal Drive, Unit B, in Carolina Beach, this stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bath top-floor duplex sits at the heart of Carolina Beach, offering the rare combination of ocean and sound views, elevator access, and walk-to-everything convenience — all in one beautifully appointed home.

Located second row from the sound and only a few houses down from a public sound access with a dock (less than a 2-minute walk), it’s the perfect spot for launching kayaks, paddleboards, or hopping on a friend’s boat. Prefer the ocean? The nearest public beach access is just a 3-minute walk away.

Right at the corner of that beach access, you’ll find the North End Mini Mart, a convenient spot for fresh breakfast and lunch sandwiches, locally roasted coffee, and everyday essentials. On the opposite corner, guests can make use of public restrooms and outdoor rinse-off showers — perfect for washing off sandy feet after a day at the beach.

With an elevator serving the ground and main floors, expansive decks, and a large fenced backyard, Hightide #215 is ideal for families, multi-generational groups, or anyone seeking a spacious, relaxing beach retreat.

Home Layout

Enter through the ground-level carport and take the elevator or stairs to the open-concept main living area filled with natural light and coastal charm. The inviting living room offers plenty of comfortable seating for movie nights, game days, or relaxing after a day on the water, and opens onto a spacious deck with sound views and gentle breezes.

The bright dining area seats 10 guests, with 4 additional barstools at the kitchen counter — perfect for family dinners or morning coffee before heading to the beach. Step outside to a covered porch overlooking the sound, complete with a dining table and chairs for relaxed outdoor meals. From here, you can enjoy beautiful sound views and amazing sunsets each evening.

The Crow’s Nest
