On a prime lot, only one row back from the sound front and directly bordering the undeveloped National Seashore property, Shoot the Breeze commands superior sound, lighthouse, and ocean views. A short walk to the sound-side beach provides access to a highly-coveted kiteboarding and windsurfing launch. On the first living level, you will find four comfy bedrooms; three have deck access, including the primary room with a private bath.

Up the stairs is a huge, open great room with high ceilings, lots of light, deck access, and breathtaking views. The living area has three separate sitting areas and access to the sprawling south-facing sundeck. The nearby kitchen is well-equipped and features a breakfast bar for four. Serving meals is a delight in the adjacent dining area, or you can step out onto the screened porch to dine alfresco. A beautiful winding staircase leads to a comfortable, open loft area with superb views of the sound, marsh, and surrounding area.

Also, enjoy the Kinnakeet Shores pool and tennis or explore the sound by kayak with the provided beach gear. The home has a Clipper Creek 32 Amp Level 2 Charger 7.7 kW electric car charger.

Great house

Great house, perfect location for kitesurfing and proximity to the food lion, small path leading to a beautiful little private beach between neighbors.

Most beautiful home we have ever stayed in!

THis was our first time in OBX. I did a lot of research of what area to stay in, and my sister had been to Avon a couple of years ago and recommended it. I did a lot more research about what home we would rent. RIght away, the pictures of the bright 2-story great room drew me in! Add to it that it was pet-friendly, and located on the sound with convenient access to the Atlantic and it checked our boxes! When we walked in upon arrival we all gasped and ooh'd and ahh'd (including our 13 and 17 year olds!) The house was immaculate and incredibly well appointed and so beautifully furnished and updated! We would definitely stay here again! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Shoot the Breeze

Amazing house with great views of the sound and ocean. Well stocked kitchen and beautiful art throughout. So much more than a beach house.

Beautiful Views

This was our second stay at Shoot the Breeze in Avon. We love its location on the National Seashore, close walk to the beach, and path to a sound-side beach. The house's main floor is spectacular, with quality furniture, large open spaces, smaller sitting areas, and a reading loft complete with many books. Our family hosted two other families for Thanksgiving and had plenty of room for dining, food, and gathering. We hope to visit this house again soon. Vacasa was quick to answer questions, the house was sparkly clean on arrival, and essential items were provided.

Late Fall Stay at Shoot the Breeze

This was a nice vacation at a beautiful well maintained Sound-front home. The sunset views were breathtaking and if we were Kite-surfers or Kayakers the short path to the private beach would be awesome. The house is close to Ramp 38 and closer to the carwash at the BP for the beach drivers, and maybe 10 minutes to the Point for the fishing folks. We had a great time, and would stay here again.

Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2023
