About This Home

As of January 2025

Everything you love about downtown Manteo with out the taxes and the traffic for under 500,000!
691 Vista Lake Drive is located within walking distance to shops and restaurants as well as the historic downtown waterfront. However, it is located just outside of the town limits and therefore an owner is only subject to Dare County taxes and there is no HOA with relatively little traffic.
Just off the main road Vista Lake is a quiet community with a man made lake in the middle where geese and ducks like to cool off in the summer months. This home has been completely refurbished since 2011 and was raised in 2015, it offers the perfect blend of comfort and style for you, your family and friends. Flanked by stairs on either side of porch the front door opens and beckons you into the living room then into the large sunken family room which winds past a high efficiency woodstove unit in the corner and back up into the dining and kitchen area. The kitchen layout is space saving and ensures that meal preparation is easy and everything is well within reach. from the kitchen you will pass the full bath on this level. On the opposite side of the bathroom and the stair well are the 2 bedrooms on the first level. They offer ample space to stretch out and relax.Taking the stairs to the second floor you will find the 2 other bedrooms and full bath. There is also an amazing sun deck which spans the bedrooms and offers a beautiful view over the landscaped backyard. The primary bedroom offers a large walk in closet as well as a wonderful office area connected to it as well. The other bedroom on the second floor is also very spacious with a large closet as well.
If entertaining is something you enjoy this home has an amazing backyard complete with a patio and fire pit. A portion of the yard is fenced and there are two sheds one of which has power for all of your DIY projects. Don't miss out on the chance to make this house your new home.
