Soundfront Serenity
At Carolina Aires Estate, every detail is designed for true relaxation. Hardwood floors and wide-open spaces blend seamlessly in the sun-filled living area, where couches and chairs inspire connection. It’s a space where everyone can gather to lounge, chat, and plan the next day’s adventures. For an unobstructed view of the sound and a great place to reflect, head to the connected, screened-in patio.
In the dining space, a large, reclaimed wood table seats 10, with seating for five more at the kitchen island and four in the breakfast nook. Windows brighten the space, and elegant modern chandeliers create the perfect mood for enjoying coffee with breakfast or gathering for dinner with family and friends. The gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances and plenty of counter space, making it easy to prepare a meal at home or pack a picnic for the road. Adjacent to the kitchen, a convenient barista bar adds a special touch for entertaining or just relaxing. The open floor plan keeps everyone connected, whether you’re catching incredible soundfront views in the living area or enjoying a meal around the table.
Head downstairs and you’ll find a game room that features a 75-inch smart TV and intimate seating around a stylish card table, ideal for enjoying a relaxing game night or watching your favorite movie. Covered, furnished balconies on the second and third floors offer premium locations for gazing at the sound or enjoying sunsets over the water, and an elevator makes it easy to reach all floors. Whatever the moment calls for, you’ll find it at Carolina Aires Estate.
Room to Rest and Recharge
On the sound, still waters and quiet evenings create the perfect setting for total serenity. After a day of outdoor adventures, there’s nothing like sinking into a comfortable bed to read a good book, watch your favorite show, or simply recharge.
With a total of five bedrooms and six bathrooms, Carolina Aires Estate sleeps everyone in comfort. Four suites feature king-sized beds and private bathrooms. Dual sinks and spa-style showers make morning and evening routines a breeze, while large windows fill every room with natural light. Special touches make each room feel elegant and relaxing, from white paneling and four-post beds to soft blue walls and sunny window seats.
The last bedroom includes one queen bed, one full bed, and three twin beds. Wooden bunks and wall-mounted reading lights give this space a clubhouse-style feel that’s especially fun for kids or teens. Sand Castle Club linen service means beds are made before you arrive, complete with No Worries Topper Sheets for extra comfort. Each room features a smart TV so you can unwind with familiar favorites or something new to stream. However you prefer to slow down, Carolina Aires Estate makes it easy.
Life on the Water, Your Way
With Bogue Sound steps away and the beach only three minutes by bike, coastal living comes naturally here. Grab a paddleboard from the property and follow the forested walkway down to your private pier. Out on the water, take your time exploring open spaces and hidden inlets, letting the calm stillness of the sound set the pace. If fishing or kayaking is more your speed, Bogue Sound lends itself well to both, and your private concrete dock is a convenient spot for casting a line or launching a kayak. With a dedicated boat slip, you can also bring your vessel along and enjoy the water like a local.
When you’re ready to hit the sand and waves, grab a bike or beach wagon from the property and head over to the beautiful beaches of Emerald Isle. Our coastline features shimmering water, soft sand, and wide beaches. Whether it’s a stroll along the ocean or a splash in the waves, this stretch of the Crystal Coast is great for groups who want a little more room to spread out.
Back at the property, there are plenty of ways to spend the day. A private resort-style pool includes a tanning ledge and waterfall feature to enhance the ambiance, while poolside lounge chairs let you chat while also keeping an eye on the kids. Two outdoor showers make it easy to rinse off after enjoying the beach or pool. With a fire pit, gas grill, and pellet smoker, you can kick off an unforgettable poolside cookout.
With enough parking for five vehicles, plus an EV charger, you can easily come and go. Just a short drive away is The Point, a popular, unique place where the Atlantic Ocean meets Bogue Inlet. It’s known for wide, sandy beaches and panoramic vistas, and is a great place for fishing, birdwatching, and catching the sunset over the water. A short drive in the other direction takes you to Emerald Isle Woods Park, where winding trails lead through the woods and along the shoreline. Take a day trip to Beaufort, Cape Lookout, or Shackleford Banks, or grab your bike and follow the Emerald Isle Bike Path to explore the island at a slower pace. Wherever you go, there’s plenty of entertainment for all ages.
Coastal Calm Awaits
When relaxation is the goal, there’s nothing like a laid-back Emerald Isle escape. At Carolina Aires Estate, you can take your time exploring secluded channels and peaceful inlets, lounging poolside, or visiting Crystal Coast favorites. Discover a place where life is simple, connection comes easy, and every day invites you to slow down and savor the moment.
