JUST IN: 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.show more

Two notes A. $340K for that house is insane. B. I think we now know why the previous owners sold it so cheap.

Pretty sure it was worth over $500k before yesterday.

This sure looks like someone was home 😂

Looks like two posts. The thing swinging in the background is a porch swing.

Seems like a dumb decision to build that house in the first place

50 years of beachfront property sounds worth it to me.

For a minute or two, they had a houseboat. Storm surge is a hellofa drug.

That would have been a pretty fun 30 seconds.

The Outer Banks used to be forest areas that helped protect the inland areas. This is what happens when you remove the protective barriers.

And yet people like Collin still don’t believe in climate change

Oof.
