Description Description

Forget your troubles, consider them written in sand, when you come to relax and live the beach life at this awesome vacation rental in Duck! The reverse floor plan lets you enjoy the idyllic sunset views from the spacious decks and upper and middle level floors. This gorgeous beach house is in a quiet and peaceful cul-de-sac and has tons of windows for a sun-filled vacation, 3rd lot from the sound and within a short walk of ocean access. Relax and spread out while home in the great room with cathedral ceilings and a ships watch.  After a day at the beach come home to float in a private 16 x 33 pool and hot tub. You'll find a covered bar with plenty of hammock swing seats between the pool and house! Your perfect vacation awaits!

Plan to enjoy the Ocean Crest community amenities including the seasonal outdoor community pool, tennis courts and private beach access on the east end of the road. There is a multi-use path on the east side of NC 12 for you to walk, bike or jog the short distance to the Duck town center, full of family activities all summer long including concerts, magic shows, family movie nights, morning yoga, and much more. Also in Duck there is a boardwalk along the sound which connects shops and amazing restaurants, and nature trails  – the coffee shops, donuts and ice cream shops don’t disappoint either! You won’t want to leave and will keep coming back! Don’t forget your camera for those spectacular sunsets (and the sunrises over the ocean)!

Level 1:

Driveway with double carport, enclosed outdoor shower, pool, gas grill. Come inside to the dry entry foyer, and laundry with full sized washer and dryer. Between the carport and the pool is a brand new outdoor bar area, surrounded by hammock swing chairs- enjoy the shade and cool off with a cocktail after sunning at the beach and pool!

Level 2:

4 large bedrooms, 1 with a Bunk Set and Pyramid Bunk on east side of house, which shares a hall bath with tub/shower combo with the southeast bedroom with Twins. On the west side of the house there is one Queen bedroom with private bath (shower stall full bathroom) that shares access to a separate Jacuzzi soaking bathtub room that connects with the private bath (tub/shower combo) of the second Queen bedroom that also has access to the large covered deck with the hot tub, overlooking the private pool. Hot tub on covered mid-level deck

Level 3:

On your way from the mid to top levels is a half bath on the stairs landing. Updated and tasteful great room that includes large living room, dining room (that opens to the well-stocked l-shaped kitchen with breakfast bar that seats 2), and ships watch with game table. Sliding door to large l-shaped sun deck. Dine al fresco while listening to the birds and enjoying the sound view! Large bedroom (with King and private full bath with tub/shower combo).

Memorial Day 2024. Well stocked and homely with tons of space and convenient to the Town of Duck and close by private community beach access!

This home was amazing. Centrally located, yet on a quiet street.
