About this property

Soundside Dog Friendly Home w/ Private Pool, HotTub, Game Room, Community Tennis

SOUND VIEW Avon – Kinnakeet Shores – Open all of your senses to the natural beauty of Pamlico Sound from THE KINNAKEET RETREAT, a three-level home that surrounds you in luxurious comfort in a magnificently pristine and secluded location. This seven bedroom/seven full- and one-half bath home has everything your family needs to enjoy the Outer Banks vacation you’ve dreamed about. While easily accessible to both sound and ocean beaches, your love for the water is easily rewarded with a ground level pool. One level up overlooking the pool is a five-person hot tub, the perfect place to hit the brakes after a day of being on the go. Don’t be lulled too far into relax mode, though; a basketball hoop in the driveway and a billiards table in a game room that also features a large flat screen TV just might rouse your competitive spirit. Fix a drink at the wet bar and cue it up.

When the fun and games have ended and you’re ready to call it a day, the home’s seven bedrooms offer a private escape designed to lull you to sleep in total comfort. There are six master bedrooms: three kings, two queens, and a twin bedroom, all with private baths and direct access to the mid-level deck furnished with new Polywood® deck chairs. A bedroom with a king is convenient to the game room bath. Wake up refreshed and ready to plan a great day in the third level great room where an open floor plan invites the momentum to seamlessly flow from kitchen to dining area to living room. A lovely 10-seat dining table, along with three bar stools at the kitchen counter easily accommodates your group at mealtime. In the living room, if the flat screen TV doesn’t grab your attention, the view off the deck most certainly will. Catch the indescribable sound and sunset views, and even the iconic Cape Hatteras lighthouse, that are sure to leave a memorable imprint.

Guests of THE KINNAKEET RETREAT have access to Kinnakeet Shores pool and tennis facilities. The house is dog friendly and up to two furry friends are welcome. Please note that there is no landline so be sure to bring your mobile chargers. Ready to move on that restful getaway? Book THE KINAKEET RETREAT today.
