Why Live in Buxton

Buxton, a small village in Nags Head on Hatteras Island, is nestled between the Pamlico Sound and the Atlantic Ocean. Known for the iconic Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Buxton is a hub for watersports like fishing, kiteboarding, kayaking, paddleboarding, and surfing. The village has the highest year-round population on the island, with over 1,200 permanent residents, and serves as the island's epicenter with essential infrastructure such as schools, a community building, and an electricity company. Homes in Buxton often feature wooden stilts and multi-level balconies, with styles ranging from single-story Cape Cods to three-level houses. The Cape Hatteras Lighthouse and the adjacent Museum of the Sea are major attractions, drawing visitors to explore the maritime history of the area.

The village is home to Cape Hatteras Elementary and Cape Hatteras Secondary School, both of which are highly rated. Outdoor activities abound with the Cape Hatteras Anglers Club, Haulover Day Use Area, and Buxton Woods Nature Trail.
