The Area
The Cottages at Ocean Isle Beach is a charming coastal community of Arts and Crafts inspired cottage homes. The community is located beneath old-growth oak canopies along the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, on the mainland side of Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina.
Native woodlands and natural ponds blend seamlessly with meticulously landscaped lots, creating a community of new homes with modern amenities that capture the old-fashioned charm of its nostalgic seaside town location.
In designing this appealing neighborhood, we fully embraced the enduring Craftsman aesthetic and infused the style with our passion for abundant sunlight, smart use of space, and beautiful details. Crafted with quality materials and meticulous workmanship, these inspired designs create stylish living and timeless appeal through welcoming porches, open concept floor plans, and interiors that live much larger than the actual square footage.
Front porches are more than an architectural feature here; they are part of the lifestyle. Owners use them as outdoor sitting rooms that capitalize on the mild temperatures and fresh coastal breezes, as well as for greeting neighbors who are strolling the sidewalks along gently curving, tree-lined streets.
