Description

Own a Piece of Sunset Beach History – The Home of the Co-Founder of the Kindred Spirit Mailbox Own a piece of Sunset Beach history with this iconic home, built in 1963 ALONG THE INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY. This property offers stunning views of the Sunset Beach Bridge and embodies the ESSENCE of the Kindred Spirit Mailbox, a place of reflection established nearly 50 years ago by THE LATE Frank Nesmith. The Kindred Spirit Mailbox on Bird Island has served as a beacon of hope and connection for many. As Frank shared his inspiration on one of his last visits to the Mailbox, ”We’re all kindred spirits, and the reflections people have shared here are proof. If we can bring joy to others, it wasn’t a waste of time to be on this earth.” Lynn Nesmith, now the owner of the home said: ”Daddy had no idea what he was doing when he planted that first mailbox on a deserted stretch of sand. It’s been a gift for anyone who has been here or will come here. It’s a powerful place.” The home’s location enhances its significance. Sheltered by majestic live oaks and palmettos, the house captures vistas of the expansive tidal marsh, Intracoastal Waterway and Sunset Beach Bridge. A private pier provides the perfect spot to soak in the peaceful surroundings. Imagine watching the sun rise and set over the water every day. Sunset Beach Town Park is a pleasant stroll or just minutes away by car, enriching this already desirable location. This home features a two-car attached garage and a gracious foyer where tall windows embrace the view. Awash with natural light and enlivened with heart pine paneling in the main living areas, interiors evoke a classic coastal vibe in keeping with its history. Offered ”AS IS”, this property presents a unique opportunity to preserve or reimagine this iconic gem. Whether you choose to renovate or rebuild, the powerful legacy of this place will always remain. Don’t miss your chance to own this special piece of Sunset Beach!
