About this property
The Glass House-NEW LISTING! Surrounded by nature. Close to Beach
The Glass House is a unique architectural design that allows you to experience nature in your secluded spot. Surrounded by trees in a serene location located in a quiet, safe and popular area of Middle Sound Loop-just 10 minutes to Wrightsville Beach. 5 minutes to a grocery store and 7 minutes to Mayfaire shopping .
Windows and decks allow you to overlook the courtyard with an outdoor dining table, yard with fire pit, grill, games and hammock. Stroll down to the dock to enjoy your morning coffee and watch the herons and cranes. Bring your paddle board or canoe for a paddle!
2 bedrooms each with their own full bath, the master has a luxurious bathroom and large shower where you can see the trees. The second smaller suite has a smaller European full bathroom. Each room has its own temperature control.
Beach chairs, umbrella and towels are yours to use. The kitchen is stocked to be able to prepare your meals and also we have an out door grill for your use.
Staycation anyone? Coming from near or far? Weekend or a month just let us know how we can make your stay amazing!

About the host
Hosted by Michelle and John Taylor
Whether you are seeking solitude or want to swap travel stories we welcome you. We live on the property and share 3 acres with The Glass House. We each have our privacy as you can't see one house from the other but we may cross paths at the dock. We built the second home as a passion project and our guests share how much they love it. More than that is how much we enjoy hosting. We are locals and are both real estate agents and John is a builder, yes, he built the Glass House:) .
Why they chose this property
Our guest share how much they love the architecture and design and the feeling they get when they are here. It is very relaxing and absolutely beautiful no matter which window you look out. The privacy allows you to unplug and relax. Some of our guests like to run at the Pages Creek Nature Preserve just a few minutes away.
What makes this property unique
You'll be surrounded by trees at the end of a quiet street but only 5 minutes to groceries and 10 minutes to Wrightsville Beach. Great place to work from as well.
