This house was built by my grandfather around 1940. It has been passed down through the generations and there is lots of family history between it's walls. The Sandbar is located in a quaint, quiet neighborhood within walking/biking distance to downtown Morehead where beautiful boats are docked and great restaurants, bars and shops await you. There also is a new playground with splash pad, tennis courts and pickleball courts available just blocks from the house. It is only a short walk down the alley to the Bogue Sound where you can sit and relax on the beach and watch the boats go by and the sun set. The Atlantic ocean is a short 2 1/2 mile drive across the bridge to Atlantic Beach. Just east of Morehead is beautiful Beaufort, a must see while you are in the area, which is the third oldest town in North Carolina.
The house has two separate apartments. The downstairs is for our guests and the upstairs is my personal apartment. Everyone has their own private entrance. You will find the newly remodeled kitchen and dining room ideal for cooking and entertaining your family and friends. The space includes a bright sunroom and outdoor deck for grilling out and relaxing.
There is a washer and dryer in the bathroom off of the sunporch for your use. There is also an outside shower with hot and cold running water for your convenience to rinse off or shower as you come in from the beach.
We really enjoyed our stay! The house was spotless and beautiful. It was so close to the sound. We can not wait to go back. Lucie is an amazing owner. She even left the light on for us when we were arriving later than I had expected.
Loved our visit to Morehead City!We were in town for a family wedding.We felt at home at Ludieâs house! Such a convenient location to restaurants and the beach! We would definitely stay again and looking forward to it!
Ludieâs place is unmatched in my book! The perfect cozy coastal stay. She was friendly and easy to communicate with. This place is spacious and has a charm that we are already missing. The public walk way to the sound (water) was the best unexpected surprise! We walked in the evenings and it was such a joy. Looking at dates for next yearâŠ. Canât wait to come back!
Nice neighborhood; main bath very small; other bath in laundry room, also tiny! Did not realize host would be staying upstairs, taking up parking at rear of home! Did not feel like we had privacy! maybe my fault for not being more diligent with pictures, description of property; I encourage anyone considering this unit to review carefully. Not really host fault, decent rental for the right people, just not for my family.
Very nicely decorated, furnished, and maintained property in a pleasant, quiet neighborhood. A bit far for walking to downtown but downtown parking is plentiful. Five-minute drive to a grocery store and, incidentally, the best pizzeria I've found anywhere in NC, Loretta's Pizza.
This was the second trip to stay with Ludie, and it was just as great as the first. Booked the house for our uncle, and he thoroughly enjoyed his time there. Hope to visit again soon!
A wonderful property with easy access to downtown or any of several public beaches. Home-y touches throughout the property, several ceiling fans to dial-in ones comfort level, and very nice hardwood floors that do not squeak at all; quite impressive. The Sandbar is an easy choice when we return to Morehead City.
The cottage decor made our brief stay very calm and peaceful with the beach just a short walk away. Ludie is a gracious host and provided very comfortable furnishings. We were attending a wedding
Labor Day weekend and appreciated the close proximity to the event yer located far from the holiday crowds. Perfect location!
