About this home
Villamar Single-Level Home with “Casita” | Flexible Coastal Living in Isla Verde: The home itself reflects this evolution with thoughtful updates and a layout designed for comfort and flexibility. A front balcony and fenced yard welcome you into the main residence, where a fully renovated kitchen, open living spaces and separate bedroom areas comfortably accomodate guests. The living room flows seamlessly to a covered terrace, creating an inviting indoor-outdoor setting for gathering, dining, or simply unwinding after a day at the beach. The overall ambiance is cool, calm, and effortlessly beachy—an atmosphere that feels equally suited to everyday living or hosting guests. At the rear of the property, a separate “casita” with its own kitchen offers independent accommodations ideal for extended family, guests, or rental income. The backyard terrace has been designed with leisure in mind, featuring an above-ground pool and bar area that has proven especially popular with short-term visitors. A long covered carport provides ample space for vehicles, water gear, and storage—an essential feature for those who embrace the coastal lifestyle. Modern resiliency complements the home’s laid-back appeal. Equipped with a backup Generac generator, Tesla battery system, solar water heater and two 800-gallon water tanks, the property offers reliable energy and peace of mind regardless of weather conditions. In Villamar, where the pace is unhurried and the beach is always within easy reach, this residence presents a rare opportunity to experience the enduring charm of Isla Verde’s original beach community while enjoying the comforts and versatility of a thoughtfully updated home.
Local Insight
At $421/sqft for a 1960s home in an AE flood zone, you're paying a premium that assumes the pool and in-law suite add real value, but you'll want a thorough inspection since the age and flood risk could mean hidden costs in insurance, maintenance, and future resale complications. The tight 0.12-acre lot is typical for this Carolina subdivision, so you're really buying the house itself rather than land, which limits expansion options and makes that $98 monthly HOA feel less like a bargain. If the in-law suite works for your situation and you can absorb potential flood insurance increases, it could be a solid fit—but if you're not already committed to the location and its constraints, similar square footage elsewhere might offer more flexibility for the money.
