About This Home
As of February 2023This charming Oceanfront Cottage beckons you in with its landscaped yard and ample parking. Reminiscent of days when spending a beach week on the Outer Banks was like heading to the edge of the world; a hidden oasis. The interior welcomes guests with a centralized kitchen and oversized island for dining. Two separate living areas sit on each side of the kitchen giving guests plenty of room to spread out and relax. The juniper wood tongue and groove ceilings and the gas fireplace (currently not hooked up) add to the cottage charm of this seaside getaway. The first floor also hosts two bedrooms; each with two twin beds allowing for multiple families to enjoy vacationing together. Following the whimsical spiral staircase to the top floor takes you to the two principal suites. Each suite has a private balcony, room for a King size bed and ocean views! When the outside beckons you, sunning by and swimming in the backyard pool or jumping in the hot tub is the perfect place to unwind. But, of course, the beautiful Outer Banks waters and wide Corolla beaches are an easy walk over the well vegetated, protective dune so that you can enjoy Oceanside fun as well as pool lounging! This home is a quick bike ride to shops and restaurants making it a perfect getaway location. “Mother Earth, Father Sky” is a special home that will please anyone looking to recapture their childhood days spent on the Outer Banks! Endless possibilities on this large lot with a stable, vegetated dune!
