A beach house you'll love owning, and an investment that already knows how to perform. Welcome to Sea Oats Saltbox, a beautifully updated Southern Shores retreat offering the rare combination of personal enjoyment, turnkey ownership, and a proven rental history generating well over 10% in annual gross rental income versus sales price. Tucked away on a spacious, private lot and just a short walk to the beach, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home captures everything people love about Southern Shores. Spend mornings biking beneath the trees, afternoons at the beach, and evenings in your own private backyard retreat. The fully fenced yard has been thoughtfully transformed for outdoor living with a custom heated gunite saltwater pool, sun shelf, automatic pool cover and beautiful travertine pavers surrounding the pool. A pool heater helps extend the rental and swimming season beyond the peak summer months, while a full-yard irrigation system keeps the professionally landscaped grounds looking their best. After a day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower, unwind in the SISU barrel sauna, or gather beneath the home for an evening outdoors. Under-deck waterproofing and string lights create an additional covered outdoor living space. Inside, the bright and inviting open floor plan was made for gathering. An open kitchen with stainless steel appliances and bar seating flows into the main living space, while four bedrooms give family and guests plenty of room to settle in. Both bathrooms have been renovated, and brand-new front and rear decks featuring TimberTech® composite decking were completed in 2026, adding another major improvement that's already been taken care of for the next owner. For the investment-minded buyer, this property is equally impressive. 2025 gross rental income exceeded $102,000 — representing well over 10% annual gross rent versus sales price. The home has an established Airbnb presence with exceptional guest reviews and is professionally managed by an experienced boutique Outer Banks vacation-rental manager. Best of all, the work of creating a successful vacation rental has already been done. The home is being offered fully furnished. Use it. Rent it. Or do a little of both. Located in sought-after Southern Shores with easy access to Duck, Kitty Hawk, the beach, sound, biking and everything that makes this part of the Outer Banks so special, Sea Oats is more than an investment property — it's a place you'll actually want to keep a few weeks for yourself.

Safe in a high dune area of Southern Shores, this custom-built home offers refined coastal living just moments from a private beach access. Clean architectural lines, graceful curved walls, and an open layout set the tone for a home that feels both striking and welcoming. This home has been meticulously cared for as a primary home, having never been rented before. Sunlight pours through generous windows beneath 9-foot ceilings (soaring as high as 18 feet), filling the space with warmth throughout the day. The heart of the home is the vaulted family room with its gas fireplace and airy two-story opening. The renovated kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, featuring Cambria Lakedale quartz countertops, custom cabinetry with pullout drawers, double wall ovens, a cooktop, black stainless appliances, a breakfast bar, and a well-organized pantry. This spacious, open, and well lit area of the home flows easily from the kitchen into a cozy living room, with its own gas fireplace, and a dining area framed by a large picture window and glass doors leading to an expansive sun deck overlooking a beautifully designed, recently resurfaced saltwater pool and thoughtfully landscaped grounds with new retaining wall and irrigation system. With four bedrooms, including two primary suites on the main level, the layout offers flexibility, privacy, and the option for one floor living. The main primary suite opens to a covered deck overlooking the fenced backyard oasis. Its spa-like bath includes a jetted tub, tiled walk-in shower, double vanity, and toilet with bidet. A handsome library or office with recessed ceilings and custom built-ins, along with a convenient half bath and laundry room, complete the first floor. Upstairs, a wide staircase leads to a loft ideal for reading or media, where you can catch sunsets over the Currituck Sound. Two additional ensuite bedrooms with walk-in closets provide comfortable accommodations for guests or family. Additional highlights include a spacious two-car garage with walk-up attic storage, electronic hurricane shutter at the front entry, irrigation system, and a large outdoor shower—perfect after a day at the beach. And to provide further peace of mind a new whole house filtration system was added in 2025, and upstairs HVAC just replaced this May!
