About this Property
  • Sleeps 15
  • 5 Bedrooms
  • 3 Bathrooms
  • Cottage
  • Approximately 2950 square feet
The Exum beach bungalow on Atlantic Beach, NC, is a family home with a three-generation history. Each generation has added photographs, books and original works of art, all of which give the bungalow its unique character. Constructed in 1948, when there was only one other bungalow on Club Colony Drive, the home was restored after Hurricane Hazel in 1954 and extensively remodeled in 2022.

Located on the beach front and surrounded by a garden of native plants, dune grasses and herbs, the home features a hammock for calming over the sand, a front porch with rocking chairs on the second level and a spectacular expansive ocean view from the third-floor master suite.

With five bedrooms and three baths, the home comfortably sleeps twelve The warmth and appeal of a traditional NC beach bungalow are complemented by fresh modern amenities, including WiFi, four flat-screen TVs, Bluetooth wireless technology, an EV charger with/Tesla adapter and solar array that supplies electricity for the entire home with battery back up.

The entrance to the first level is a chart room with maps of the local terrain and waterways, guide books for planning excursions and a sitting area. The ground-level bunk room has its own bath, as well as access to an outdoor shower. On the second floor are three thematically decorated bedrooms with a shared bath, an refreshed, well-equipped kitchen and an open living-dining room. The third floor is furnished with an eclectic mix of mid-century modern and vintage campaign furnishings, family memorabilia, richly colored textiles and art objects from around the world.

Visitors have use of a laundry room, indoor and outdoor games, bicycles, a
charcoal grille, beach chairs and floats, making the Exum beach bungalow ideal for a family vacation. Or the freshly refreshed master suite, with a coffee and wine bar, a surround-sound stereo system and cavernous bath, is the ideal setting for a charming get-away.

During the summer months, the bungalow is available for week-long bookings only that start and end on a Sunday. The cost for linens and bath towels is $25/per bed. The bungalow has 9 beds: 1 king, 4 queens, 1 double, 1 top bunk, 1 trundle twin and one rolling twin cot. The property is equipped with exterior Ring cameras for security.
