With panoramic ocean and sound views, expansive living spaces, and a layout designed for gathering, A Life of Rilee delivers a coastal experience that feels both elevated and effortless. Located just steps from the beach on Ocean Drive, this second-row retreat pairs nearly 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed interiors with outdoor spaces built for making the most of every moment on the Crystal Coast.
Elevated Living, Designed for Connection
Spanning four levels with elevator access throughout, the home’s reverse floor plan places the main living area at the top, where natural light and water views take center stage. The great room is open, airy, and designed to bring everyone together, anchored by a 65-inch SMART TV, gas fireplace, and refreshed furnishings that give the space a clean, modern feel.
Just beyond, the gourmet kitchen is built for both everyday ease and larger gatherings, featuring stainless appliances, double ovens, two dishwashers, a wine refrigerator, and generous prep space. The adjoining dining area comfortably seats ten, with additional seating at the bar for casual meals or conversation.
Recent updates have enhanced this space even further, with new kitchen additions that make cooking and entertaining more seamless, along with updated décor and furnishings that elevate the overall aesthetic.
Six Private Suites, Thoughtfully Updated
Each of the six bedrooms is designed as a private retreat, complete with its own bathroom, deck access, and water views. Whether you’re traveling with extended family or multiple couples, the layout offers both privacy and comfort across every level.
For 2026, the home has been refreshed with newly repainted bedrooms and updated finishes, creating a brighter, more cohesive feel throughout. One of the king suites now features a brand-new mattress, upgraded bedding, and premium pillows, adding another layer of comfort to your stay.
Built for Entertainment, Inside and Out
From quiet mornings to lively evenings, A Life of Rilee is designed to keep everyone engaged. The ground-level game room offers a full entertainment hub with an 8-foot pool table, TV, and its own kitchen area, making it a natural gathering space after a day at the beach.
Outdoors, the experience continues with a private 12’ x 24’ pool, hot tub, and multiple deck levels outfitted with seating and rockers. The newly upgraded hot tub, complete with a new control panel and cover, ensures reliable comfort, while expanded outdoor seating and dining areas with durable polywood furniture create more space to relax and connect.
The resurfaced putting green adds another layer of fun, alongside cornhole, a sandbox, and open lawn space. Whether it’s a casual afternoon game or a full family competition, there’s always something to do.
A Setting That Welcomes You In
The home’s professionally refreshed landscaping, complete with new pine straw and seasonal planters, creates an inviting first impression the moment you arrive. It’s a subtle but important detail that sets the tone for the stay ahead.
And with the beach just steps away, transitioning from the home to the shoreline is effortless. Morning walks, full beach days, and evening sunsets all become part of the daily rhythm.
The Crystal Coast, Your Way
Located in the heart of Emerald Isle, NC, this home offers convenient access to local dining, shopping, and nearby coastal towns, while still feeling like a private retreat.
Whether you’re planning a weeklong family vacation, gathering with friends, or simply looking for a space that brings everyone together, A Life of Rilee offers the kind of setting where those plans come to life naturally.
