OCEANFRONT:7 Bed;8 Bath;2 Heated Pools;4 Whirlpools;Spa;Private Walkway to beach

With a private walkway from the oceanfront pool and spa over the dunes and directly onto the beach, this stunning oceanfront home was built as close to the ocean as possible and was custom designed to maximize exceptional ocean views from every room.

Enjoy spectacular sunrises over the ocean, play in the 40’ pool with elevated baby pool and 4’ waterfall, then relax under the stars in the poolside hot tub at your very own “Castle by the Sea”!

The house features 4 master bedroom suites on the oceanfront, 3 additional bedrooms on the west side of the house, and 8 bathrooms including the poolside cabana. New upgrades are added each year, including: Oceanfront hot tub for 7; 65” 4K TV in raised living area; Kitchen tile; New tile, vanities and fixtures in 2 bathrooms; 53” HD TV in Master Bedroom on top level; 40” HD TV in Game Room; Private walkway from oceanfront pool cabana over dunes right onto the beach; Professional quality pool table; Repainted interior, Updated bedroom décor; 6 HDTV's and Blu-ray 5.1 surround sound system.

Arise early for a cup of coffee with family or friends (on the elevated gazebo with built-in seating at the end of the private boardwalk), and share the experience of spectacular sunrises illuminating the ocean waves with purple, pink and red hues.

Spread your towels, your tent and even your playpen (from the house’s baby closet) on the beach at the end of the private walkway for a day of tanning and playing in the roaring ocean waves—all visible from the Raised Living Area, Dining Room, Breakfast Room and Master Bedroom by members of your party who prefer or need to remain inside.

When it’s time to relax in the shade, return to your “Castle” where you can play in the 40' x 20' oceanfront pool with elevated baby pool and 4' waterfall or read on the pool deck, one of 4 other decks or in the library-- private places even with large family groups. You can even request to have the pool heated for an additional fuel fee.

Prepare dinner in the fully-stocked kitchen with excellent ocean views, downdraft grill, oven, 2 Cooktops, Micro-convection oven, 2 Dishwashers, 2 Coffee Makers, 2 Blenders, Food Processor, Crockpot, Pots, Pans and Wet Bar with free-standing icemaker. Then serve the whole family at the dining room table for 10, the Breakfast Room for 6 or the Library for 4.

When the day is done, relax under the stars in the oceanfront, top-of-the-line, therapeutic spa with integrated MP3 Bluetooth 5 speaker system, LED water columns, custom waterfall , exterior LED lighting and jumbo footwell jets.

Before retiring to one of 4 master bedroom suites, sip a glass of wine with friends and family on the upper level decks while admiring the mesmerizing light of the historic Corolla lighthouse that has served as a warning beacon for ships off the Outer Banks for almost 150 years.

Watch your favorite show or movie on the 65” 4K TV with Surround Sound in the Raised Living Area, or play a competitive game on the professional pool table.

For a more tranquil setting, sit in the rockers or glider on the oceanfront decks and let the stresses of the world slip away to the comforting rhythm of the rolling waves. Or, from the decks on the north and west sides of your “Castle” let your mind drift to the tales of the Outer Banks while you observe the warning beacon of the historic Corolla Lighthouse guiding the fishing vessels on their nightly rounds along the coast.
