About This Home
Classic Outer Banks, this 8 bedroom 8.5 bath home has everything you need for a perfect vacation or for a perfect vacation rental investment. The semi-oceanfront location, right next to a direct beach access, makes walking to the beach a breeze. The open and bright top floor with it's abundant windows, cathedral ceilings and wraparound decking, showcases the impressive ocean views from nearly every angle. It's like you get the views from an oceanfront home but with the reduced risk of being one row back! Hardwood floors, real wood doors, wood cabinetry and wide hallways speak to the quality of the design and build. The kitchen opens to the living and dining space and the smart kitchen layout includes TWO dishwashers, large island with ample seating and who doesn't love a wine chiller? The kitchen flows into the large dining space that is surrounded by views of the ocean and dunes. The living space is centered around the wall of east-facing windows, making for beautiful views from the main space. Step out onto the top-level decking that spans around the east, south and west sides of the home, and see if you can spot the majestic wild horses that roam this most gorgeous and unique area of the Outer Banks. Back inside, two primary bedrooms with their own en-suites are on this level, with the largest one having ocean views and deck access. The mid-level continues on with the wide hallways, open space and real wood doors. This level features 4 more primary bedrooms with en-suites, and 2 of them are ocean-facing with views. All of them have access out to the covered decks. Laundry and a separate sitting area are on this level also. The ground floor includes the quintessential OBX game room with pool table and wet bar and separate theatre room. Finally, there's another primary bedroom with en suite, an additional bedroom and another full bath (shared with the bedroom and the main space.) Rented solidly for the past few years, with approx $120k in booked income for 2025. AND it's x-flood zone, so flood insurance is not required! This home includes so many bells and whistles that vacationers look for in a rental cottage and that OBX lovers look for in a residence. Easy walk to the beach - check. Incredible ocean views - check. Lots of bedrooms for rental income generation - check. Bedrooms with ocean view - check check check. Private pool and hot tub - check. This one is a home run. AND SELLER IS OFFERING A $30K CREDIT AT CLOSING for the buyer to use towards exterior paint and/or whatever else they prefer!
