Located in the heart of Manteo, this property is just moments from the town's quaint downtown area filled with locally owned shops, art galleries, charming cafes, and scenic waterfront strolls. Known for its rich history, friendly community, and laid-back coastal lifestyle, Manteo offers the perfect blend of small-town charm and Outer Banks adventure.Whether you're searching for a serene primary residence, a peaceful vacation retreat, or a turn-key short-term rental opportunity, this lovingly updated cabin is a rare find on the Outer Banks.
