About this property

Carolina Breeze 488: Nature lover's home, sound-front with great views, shared pool

  • New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests

    NEW for 2025 SEASON, New carpeting installed on the entire top floor, stairs, and hallways, and new sofas in the living room
    Beautifully positioned on the sound-front, this home overlooks the private Hatteras wetlands that border the soundside coastline. Here in the Kinnakeet Shores neighborhood, you'll find the perfect spot for nature viewing as you relax at the top of the Carolina Breeze.

    Begin on the top level, which offers a kitchen with a brand-new refrigerator, a dishwasher, a Keurig, and an air fryer. This level is partitioned by a breakfast bar and completed with an updated dining set that includes two large bench seats. As an added secret bonus, this dining room table can be converted into both a pool table and a Ping-Pong table by removing the top. Dinner, dessert, family game night - it all happens here!

    Down the half-flight central staircase is the main living room with a large TV and a minibar. The massive windows, from floor to ceiling, capture a picture-perfect view overlooking the sound and incredible sunsets.

    One floor below, on the main level, you'll find a brand-new washer/dryer, a queen bedroom, and a dual-pyramid bedroom. Down on the lower level is a uniquely laid-out primary suite that includes a king bed, an additional double bed, a jetted tub, and a subdivided bathroom space. The entire home has gone through recent renovations, including a newly painted interior, a new HVAC and plumbing system, and new Adirondack deck chairs.

    Outside, the ground level features a brand-new gas grill and an outdoor shower. Take an evening stroll to view the sunset or, in the opposite direction, a morning walk to the beach along the community walkway. This home also includes access to the Kinnakeet Shores Pool and Tennis.

    Come take in the views, the trees, and the seas while vacationing in the Carolina Breeze.

Great House on Private Lot with Amazing View

Our family of four and 2 dogs recently stayed at this property during Thanksgiving. We enjoyed our time here and especially loved the big windows in the back of the house with views of the sound and wildlife. It was remote and relaxing which was exactly what we needed.

Carolina Breeze-December stay

Had a nice vacation in the off-season. The price, location, and being dog friendly were great. The house is dated and could use some upgrades and treatments, but for a short stay was fine.

Big home with an amazing view!

This was a big home for our family of 5 with a dog. It was perfect for us. The teens loved the table that turned into a ping pong or pool table. We all loved the view with the big windows. It could be a little cleaner with rings around the bathtubs and dated ripped furniture and rugs, but for the view and location it was worth it!

The view was great. Everything else was not

The balcony view of the sound was awesome. Everything else was pretty underwhelming. The house was old and needs upkeep. There's not enough furniture and the existing furniture is old and gross.

Beautiful Sunsets, Great Neighborhood, Good Price, Needs Some Love

Overall gorgeous location, cool house, awesome neighborhood, pool, beach. Avon is a bit more remote, but enough to do. House itself is one of the older homes with lots of privacy, but some investment would help it match the expectations to the listing. Examples: the outdoor shower had no shower head, but worked, the walls were spot painted here and there, but a board separated from the ceiling while we were there. Took 3 days to get internet to work, but it was fixed and the folks were nice who did that. Carpet remnants didn't feel homey, minimal kitchen items, toiletries felt low quality. We didn't use the grill. The main room layout is two beds and a jacuzzi with an open toilet. It felt dated and weird, but we made it work and 100% CAN'T BEAT THE PRIVACY AND VIEWS OF THE SUNSETS AND STARS!

Beautiful views!

This home was gorgeous. Pros: this home is very nice, spacious, and private which was a huge plus for us. The views were amazing. 10/10 sunset views over the sound. We were in awe. Beds were comfortable and over all we were satisfied with it. Cons: we did notice a few things that need improvement. I always bring my dog on trips with me. He only weighs five pounds so he doesn’t need a whole lot or make a lot of mess. And as a pet owner I am fully aware that the pet friendly homes I rent will have obvious signs of other pets having stayed there. Which is expected. However, they should rip out the carpet in this home. It’s very stained and tore up in a few places. And I believe a cat stayed in the house recently because there was a very strong cat urine smell on the second level of the home. This didn’t totally ruin our experience, however it was unpleasant. Honestly if they just took the carpet out it would help so much. And there are a lot of stairs, the main living shared area of the house is on the top floor which was a challenge for my 65 yo mother so that’s something others might need to be aware of. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. And i personally would recommend it to anyone who has pets and doesn’t mind the carpet just for the views alone.

Nice Vacation Home

Loved the view and location of the home. Very pleased with the response from VACASA when we couldn't get the air to work, all it was, was the breaker had kicked off and they were very helpful. We definitely would rent from VACASA again and love to rent this home again.
