A custom built home unlike any other in the area and was designed to ensure that your family getaway is a success. This is a real sound front beachfront  property the water is directly behind the house this is not a semi sound front or sound side  property no long walks down never ending piers to get to the waterfront  only to find out usually  its just high grassy wetlands or marsh  claiming  to be beachfront as is the case with most sound front properties on the island. Waterfront views and watersports are unobstructed there is no new jug handle bridge behind this property like northern rodanthe mirlo beach / area and with a private beach there are no worries about crowded public kite spots or marshy shorelines
With 20 foot floor to ceiling windows in the living area this home has some of best sound side viewing pleasure on the island.

Hatteras Island encapsulates some of the best things the Outer Banks has to offer: history, natural beauty, exciting watersports, and quaint shops that stock items found exclusively in this region. Known for great fishing and clean beaches, Hatteras consistently attracts vacationers who are looking for a laid-back atmosphere by the water. Places to explore on Hatteras Island include the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge, the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, Canadian Hole (famous among kite surfers), the towns of Rodanthe, Waves, Salvo, Avon, Buxton, Frisco and the extremely popular Hatteras Village.

Cape Hatteras National Seashore

The Cape Hatteras National Seashore is natural splendor at its best. As part of the National Park Service, this area that extends from Nags Head to Ocracoke Island boasts sparkling beaches, gorgeous sunsets, and lush maritime forests. At night, the pitch-black skies contrast the bright stars for some of the best star-gazing on the East Coast. Here, a plethora of activities can be explored: swimming, hiking, kayaking, fishing, boating and more. Drive your 4-wheel-drive vehicle onto the beach to easily access the water, or enlist the services of a local horseback riding company for an exhilarating tour of the area. It’s recommended that some time is spent in this gem of a park to appreciate all that it has to offer.

Fish Along 50 Miles of Shoreline

Fishermen are drawn to Hatteras Island mainly because the Gulf Stream is only a short 15-mile boat ride off shore. The waters of this natural phenomenon are home to many species of fish that anglers love to catch. Few places have fishing as great as that which can be found off of these local shores. Hatteras is renowned as a destination for fishermen of any ability from across the nation. And though surf-fishing or pier fishing can be a rewarding experience on the island, most prefer to try fishing off-shore via a private charter boat rental or by booking a spot on a fishing boat. Plus, if you are staying in a vacation home, you’ll probably have an adequately stocked kitchen to prepare your catch for the family dinner. Good luck hooking your catch!

Cape Hatteras Lighthouse

Rising up 210 feet in the air with swirling black and white stripes and topped with a glorious Fresnel lens is the iconic Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. Completed in 1870, this structure is the tallest brick lighthouse in the United States and one of the most famous in the world. The light emitted from this beacon extends 20 miles out to sea—giving a warning to all mariners of the perilous Diamond Shoals that lurk just off the coast of Hatteras Island. Interestingly, almost 20 years ago, it too needed to be protected. In 1999, the lighthouse and its adjoining structures made headlines when they were successfully relocated nearly 3,000 feet inland to safeguard them from the encroaching sea. Visitors can still climb the lighthouse most months of the year, but keep in mind that children must be more than 42 inches tall.


Off Road Vehicle Use on Cape Hatteras

Many off-road vehicles (ORVs) may drive on the beaches of Cape Hatteras National Seashore, but only on specific routes established by the National Park Service (NPS). ORVs must be registered, licensed, insured, have no more than two axles, and carry a low-pressure tire gauge, shovel, jack and jack support board. Each ORV must purchase either a 10-day permit or an annual permit to drive on the NPS beach routes. Permits may be bought online at www.recreation.gov by searching for Cape Hatteras Off-Road Vehicle or in person at select visitor centers in Nags Head, Buxton, and Ocracoke. 4WD vehicles are recommended for beach driving, and tire pressure should be lowered to 20psi. Only specific vehicles are allowed on the beach (no motorcycles, campers, or ATVs) so please check restrictions before purchasing your permit.

In addition we are taking all possible measures when cleaning following all guidelines of both the CDC and world health organization .

Great sunsets
Pleanty of room and space for kids to roam and play. Great sunsets and moonrises. Fishing in the sound is not bad either. Somewhat secluded too (even though you're in town). We were there Sept in the offseason, but pizza was right down the street for a cheaper meal, or Neptunes for a little more exotic dish w/ cocktails. Property manager was quick to address issues and questions. We had a great time.

What a wonderful week!
We had a wonderful time at this property. It's so pretty, you don't want to ever leave to go out sightseeing. We stayed on the back porch for 3 days looking at the kite surfers and the gorgeous sunsets. It's in a perfect location and we ventured to Corolla to see the wild horses one day and then went to Ocracoke the next day via ferry. We made wonderful memories and after staying on the "sound" side I don't know if we will ever go back to the ocean side. It's just so peaceful and relaxing. We did have a small issue on the day we checked in with the internet not working but the owner stayed in constant contact with us until it was operational again. He even checked in on us midweek telling us about the riptides. Very nice!

Fantastic Sound Access
Just what we were looking for- lots of outdoor fun in a safe environment. Probably the best access to the sound we’ve had in the 30 years we’ve been coming to OBX.

Welcome to Paradise
This home is nestled somewhere between Rodanthe and Waves and has some of the best views and real water access to Pamlico Sound, as advertised. The house was spacious enough for myself and 6 "kids" aged 16-21. We brought SUP and kayak and a giant float that we anchored quite easy. Active! We stayed during the beginning of the island's offseason so some places were closed. However, there was plenty of everything you need at Waves Market or North Beach Groceries. Everyone is chill and relaxed. No one is in a hurry on island time. When Austin's Seafood opened mid-week we finally had the perfect seafood boil right at home. I brought everything, except the seafood, from home, but Austin's will sell you the complete package with potatoes and corn and spices if you need them. Donuts and Pizza from the Dough Shack was really close and equally delicious. Good winds restaurant was close and good, but I really can't wait to get back to the friendly staff and spicy tuna bites at Neptune's, which we discovered on our last night. The location is perfect for exploring other parts of the island. We went to the beach in Rodanthe almost daily. We made the short drive to Pea Island to explore the wildlife preserve and found a secluded gem of a beach hidden by a dune near the bridge to Rodanthe. The daytrip to Nags Head was somewhat disappointing since the riptides kept us from swimming but we did some shopping and ate at Bros., which is really good. It was great! We will return! South 12!
