WWP had two closings this week and as you can see, it is all about the price. Sellers are wisely getting the prices right as we move into the height of our selling season.

 

We are preparing to send out our magazine of homes and homesites for sale. If you would like to receive this by e-blast instead of by snail mail, please let us know. Also if you would like us to include a friend, please get us their contact information.

 

Thanks for the referrals and being part of our success.

Bald Head Island Makes “10 Best American Beaches” List!

Bald Head Island strikes again! We made AOL’s list of  10 Best American Beaches... and it’s no wonder.

 

As the sun rises and sets over our unparalleled Island, families are coming to Bald Head Island in search of a retreat. Wendy Wilmot Proprties is here to help them to transition their dream vacation into dream ownership.

 

Here is what AOL had to say about each destination....

 

1.  Sullivan's Island, South Carolina

1sullivan.jpgThe entire island embodies a small-town feel, while the beach itself looks like a live photograph of times gone by courtesy of miles of clean sand and large, picturesque beach houses.”

 

 

 

2.  Cape San Blas, St. Joseph, Florida

2gulfcoastfl.jpg“Don't go looking for gaudy amusements and high-rise condos here—you won't find them. What you will find is one of the most pristine white-sand beaches in the country flanked by St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, which offers kayaking, bird watching and nature trails. Admission is $4 per car.”

 

3. Venice Beach, California

3venicewiki.jpgOcean Front Walk is where all the action is, with near-endless bike paths, street performers, fortune tellers, unique shops and eateries, and Muscle Beach. But it's easy to avoid if you simply want to lay on the sand—just walk toward the ocean. Various parking lots run anywhere from $6 to $10.”

 

4. Nauset Beach, Cape Cod

4capecod.jpgThe waters leading up to Nauset are a gorgeous cobalt blue thanks to being seaside, which also means the water can be cold until after Labor Day when the Gulf Stream kicks in. However, the waves are perfect for body boarding. Parking can be expensive—$15 per car, unless you're renting vacation property, which gives you the option of a one-week or seasonal pass.”

 

5. Rehoboth Beach, Delaware 5rehoboth.jpg

No visit to Rehoboth is complete without walking the boardwalk, featuring that classic mix of fast food, arcade games and sweet treat stores. Walk just a half mile in either direction and you'll find yourself in a more serene beach setting, with a smattering of fishermen mixed in with beachgoers in search of a more peaceful experience.”

 

6. St. Simon's Island Beach, Georgia

6simonswiki.jpgSt. Simon's Island beaches are stunningly natural, measuring hundreds of yards wide during low tide, and the opportunity to body surf during high. The beaches are flanked by the usual beach town offerings, with casual eateries and options for non-water activities.”

 

 

7. Natural Bridges State Beach, Santa Cruz, California

7naturalbridges.jpgNatural Bridges is a great beach for exploring, with tidepools and a nearby butterfly preserve. A two and a half mile path stretches between the beach and the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf, offering optimum views for joggers, bikers and walkers.”

 

 

8. Canon Beach, Oregon

8canon.jpgIdentified by the iconic Haystack Rock, Canon has a reputation for such breathtaking scenery that many a roadtripper insists on taking the 101 up the coastline seeking proof. What makes it so wonderful is the government mandate that restricts building on the beach, meaning unless you traipse into town, it's just you, sand and water for miles and miles.”

 

9. Bald Head Island, North Carolina

9baldhead.jpgBald Head doesn't allow cars, but there are golf carts. The area has a total of 12,000 acres, but 10,000 of them are untouched marshland, beach and forest property. There's no hotels, high rises or surf shops, and just two restaurants, one gourmet grocery and one country club.”

 

10. South Beach, Miami, Florida

10southbeach.jpgSouth Beach isn't always for those seeking serenity, but that's part of its charm. The further south you go, the more you'll run into mobs of people crowding the walkways. If you don't care about The Scene, some of the northern spots offer a quieter atmosphere.”
