About this property
🌊Semi-Oceanfront in Old Nags Head with Oceanviews 🏄♂️ on Private Access Road⛱
Seahorse Cottage is a semi-oceanfront, classic, old style South Nags Head beach cottage located less than 30 yards over the dune line on a private access road. Enjoy a 2-minute walk to the beach and ocean views from the front porch, dining room and living areas. Three Bedrooms and 1.5 baths upstairs with a separate detached one-bedroom unit with full kitchen downstairs. THIS LISTING IS THE ENTIRE HOUSE - upstairs three bedrooms, 1.5 baths and downstairs one bedroom, one bath - both with full kitchens and living areas.
The neighborhood is classic old Outer Banks, and the front door is literally just steps from the beach. There are no mini-mansions or hotel size houses here. Enjoy relative peace and quiet year-round. Spend your time relaxing with nature and friends and family. No need to go anywhere once you arrive. However, restaurants, shopping, and activities are in abundance, just a few minutes' drive away. Get the best of both worlds with Cape Hatteras National Seashore immediately to the south (think lighthouses and secluded beaches) and outlet shopping, mini-golf, adventure park, fishing piers, great local seafood and restaurants just a few miles north.
Parking is limited and is allowed in the driveway on property ONLY. Parking on the street is NOT allowed. We allow 3 cars maximum at any given time. DO NOT PARK IN THE ACCESS ROAD OR IN FRONT OF OTHER HOUSES.
We do have a camera on the house that is motion-activated and has a spotlight to monitor parking. The only area that can be seen with the camera is the parking area.
Enjoy complete privacy, but we are available most anytime with just a text or a phone call for recommendations or assistance. Outer Banks residents for over 30 years, we live a few short miles away but will often be there to greet and check you in. Or, check yourself in at any time with a coded key lockbox. Feel free to call or text us anytime for assistance or recommendations!
We provide the first roll of toilet paper and paper towels. Additional paper product needs are guests' responsibility. We supply handsoap but personal toiletries are the guests' responsibility.
