If you’ve been dreaming about life off the pavement, this is it. Tucked away in the 4-wheel-drive area of Corolla, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home puts you right in the heart of Carova Beach, where wild horses roam freely and the shoreline stretches for miles. A quick drive to the nearest beach access ramp makes getting onto the sand easy, while still letting you enjoy the quiet, remote feel that makes Carova so special. Under the home, you’ll find plenty of storage space for all the essentials, beach gear, kayaks, fishing equipment, or even an ATV to fully embrace the 4x4 lifestyle. Whether you’re looking for a second home getaway or a property with rental potential, this one checks all the boxes. The main living level offers three bedrooms and two full baths, plus a comfortable kitchen with granite countertops and generous cabinet space. A sunroom off the back of the house adds extra living space, and the sun deck is a great spot to unwind after a day spent on the beach. Upstairs, the top level feels like its own retreat with a private fourth bedroom, full bath, second living area, and sun decks on both the east and west sides, perfect for catching both sunrises and sunsets. Originally built in 1983, the home was relocated from Whalehead to Carova in 2004 and completely renovated over the years that followed, so it lives much newer than its original build date. Located in an X-flood zone and equipped with a private well and water filtration system, this home offers both peace of mind and practicality. This is Carova living at its best, natural beauty, wide-open beaches, and a pace of life that invites you to slow down and enjoy the ride.
