The Main Floor features an open and airy great room with living, dining, and kitchen areas, ideal for gathering and calming. You’ll also find two bedrooms, a additional room, a Jack-and-Jill full bath, and an additional half bath on this level. The wrap-around deck provides plenty of space for soaking up the sun or appreciating a picnic outdoors, all while taking in the handsome Atlantic Ocean vistas from every south-facing room.
The Ground Floor offers a comfortable second living area, a smaller kitchen, two bedrooms, another Jack-and-Jill full bath, and a half bath — creating a entirely functional second living space that accepts everybody to stay together while still enjoying their own privacy and comfort.
Step outside and you’ll find public beach access directly across the street, making it painless to spend your days with your toes in the sand and your evenings relaxing to the sound of the waves.
Located in Pine Knoll Shores, you’ll be close to all that the Crystal Coast has to offer — from the NC Aquarium to the coastal towns of Emerald Isle, Swansboro, and Beaufort, all rich in appeal and maritime history.
The Griffin House really offers the best of both worlds — space, comfort, and gorgeous vistas, all just steps from the ocean.

Testimonials:
December 13, 2023 - 5 Stars - Katy Dunne
This home has plenty of room with separate living quarters plus really simple beach access right across the street. It's on a peaceful street, feels very private, and has a great view from the sizable deck. I adore this part of the island - it's very green and secluded, but also super close to Atlantic Beach and Beaufort if you want to do some shopping or find a great spot to eat. The aquarium is right close by, too! I will definitely be back to the Griffin House again!
December 13, 2023 - 5 Stars - Melissa Mason
The home had everything we needed for our group and so close to the water! I appreciated the view from the upstairs living space, flooded with sunshine and ocean vibes even when you are inside. The deck is the ideal sunset spot to sit with a glass of wine and soak it all in. It's hard to believe this striking space exists, a peaceful little neighborhood located in the dunes with beautiful empty beaches. A far cry from the busy beaches to the north and south. It was so easy for us to walk to the water with our little ones and all our beach gear. Will absolutely stay here again!
