Beachfront Home In NC's Outer Banks Falls Into The Ocean And Gets Taken Out To Sea During Hurricane

Posted • August 17, 2024: Beachfront home falls into the Atlantic Ocean on North Carolina’s Outer Banks. The incident was thanks to Hurricane Ernesto which is off the coast in the Atlantic. The unfortunate owners purchased the 4 bed, 2 bath home in 2018 for $339,000. The home was built in 1973. "Large breaking waves, life-threatening rip currents, beach erosion, and ocean overwash are all possible," said Cape Hatteras officials in a news release. No one was in the home during the time of the incident.
