About this Property

Come savor our oceanfront beach home in the heart of Kill Devil Hills by Avalon Pier. A great open floor plan for beach lovers, fishers, surfers and families. Appreciate breakfast, lunch, and dinner with oceanfront vistas in the freshly modernized kitchen. Two of the three bedrooms and the living room are oceanfront. The kitchen and dining area lead out onto an oceanfront deck. The deck offers great sunshine in the morning and in the afternoon a shady break from the sun’s rays. Ideal for parents seeking to appreciate the beach and solitude of their kid's afternoon nap (after wearing themselves ragged from a morning on the beach) while sitting on a oceanfront deck with a infant monitor, reading a book, sipping a drink and listening to the waves.

Walk to Chilipeppers, Avalon Pier, or Awful Arthurs for dinner, drinks or both! Avalon Pier (just a short walk on the beach from the home) also has a fun arcade for the kids. Visit the Wright Brothers National Memorial (just a short drive) and see where the first flight took place. Drive to one of the lighthouses or as many as you can cram into your trip! Currituck Beach Lighthouse - 60 min drive, Cape Hatteras Lighthouse - 60 min drive, Bodie Island Lighthouse - 20 min drive (if you go to Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, you’ll drive right by Bodie), Ocracoke Island Lighthouse - 70 min drive + ferry ride + 15 min drive, Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse - 15 mins. The North Carolina Aquarium on Roanoke Island is just 15 mins away and has an striking sea turtle exhibit, jellyfish exhibit and a great shark tank! There’s plenty to do in Kill Devil Hills, from family-friendly putt-putt golf to late-nighttime bands and DJ's (Outer Banks Brewing Station & Jack Brown’s). Be sure and watch a sunset from Jockey’s Ridge State Park in Nags Head (just 10 mins away) or at least stop by and climb up the East Coast’s biggest living sand dune for ocean to sound vistas! Eat a Mahi-Mahi BLT from Blue Moon in Nags Head and stop in I Got Your Crabs in Kitty Hawk or O'neal's Sea Harvest in Wanchese for fresh off the boat seafood.

If you like Avalon Pier, take a drive and visit all the oceanfront pier bars. Each one with its own unique flavor - Captain Andy’s Tiki Bar at Nags Head Fishing Pier and Fishheads at Outer Banks Fishing Pier (locals hint: go on a live music nighttime).
