Open House in Federal Point Yacht Club - 11/07/13

by Desiree Whalen.

Hi all!
Yesterday I was able to attend an Open House event - actually two Open Houses - in the Federal Point Yacht Club neighborhood on the canal in Carolina Beach. This is a beautiful little community with gorgeous water views and is within a short walking distance to shopping and dining in the area, which I covered in a post yesterday.

902 Grand Bahama Drive Carolina Beach, NCThe two properties featured at this joint Open House were located at 902 Grand Bahama Drive (presented by Teresa McLamb) and 101 Hope Town Road (presented by Shawndy Linquist), and the event was co-sponsored by Kathryn Jennings of Alpha Mortgage.

Both were stunning properties - 902 Grand Bahama  is a 5 bedroom, 5 bath home with over 3100 square feet of space, with two sun rooms, 3 decks overlooking the canal, and a beautiful rooftop deck. You can see details of this property including photos and current pricing here:

101 Hope Town Road is a 4 bedroom 3 bath home at just over 2200 square feet, offering great water views from two canal facing decks (one off the master bedroom!), a south facing deck off the newly renovated kitchen,  and a fenced in back yard. To see details of this property including photos and current pricing, click here:

101 Hope Town Road Carolina Beach, NCThanks again to Teresa, Shawndy, and Kathryn for putting together a great joint Open House event - the food was great and I enjoyed seeing all of you!
