About this home
Eight-bedroom homes are a rare find in Duck, and an oceanfront property of this size, setting, and amenity package is even more exceptional. Situated on approximately half an acre with more than 100 feet of ocean frontage, this impressive estate offers unobstructed Atlantic views, expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces, and the room to comfortably accommodate a large group. With extensive improvements completed over the past several years, the home is beautifully maintained and exceptionally well equipped for both personal enjoyment and rental use. Designed with entertaining in mind, each level offers its own kitchen or kitchenette area, along with multiple gathering spaces throughout the home. The ground level features a kitchenette with a refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave, as well as a game room with ping pong, a comfortable living area, and an authentic movie theater with new theater seating. From here, step directly outside to the private 15' x 30' pool, hot tub, and spacious poolside entertaining area. The mid-level provides yet another generous gathering space with a pool table and a substantial wet bar/kitchen area equipped with a refrigerator, ice maker, microwave, and two dishwashers. With plenty of seating, this level gives guests another place to spread out and relax. Four bedrooms are located on this level, including three king bedrooms and one queen bedroom. The top level takes full advantage of the spectacular oceanfront setting. An expansive open living room, dining area, additional sitting spaces, and beautifully appointed kitchen all face the Atlantic, creating sweeping water views throughout the main living areas. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with two of nearly every major appliance, part of an impressive appliance package that includes five dishwashers throughout the home. The largest suite is also located on the top level and offers a true private retreat with direct access to an oceanside deck. The spacious bathroom features a soaking tub, separate tiled shower, dual sinks, separate closets, and a private water closet. In total, six of the home's eight bedrooms are private suites with their own bathrooms, providing a level of privacy that is particularly desirable in a home designed for larger groups. Each level also includes a convenient half bath. The property is beautifully landscaped with ample parking and is located just a short walk or bike ride from the heart of the Town of Duck, making it easy to enjoy the shops, restaurants, boardwalk, and other attractions that make Duck one of the Outer Banks' most sought-after communities. An extensive list of improvements adds even more value. The entire ocean-facing side of the home received new windows, doors, and exterior siding in 2023, and new LVP flooring was installed that same year. Recent improvements also include interior and exterior painting, with the exterior paint just completed. Updates for 2026 include new barstools, new movie theater chairs, and a new sofa in the sunroom. The former tiki bar was removed to create a more open and versatile pool area with additional room for seating and outdoor enjoyment. The HVAC systems have also received significant attention over the years, including replacement of the top-level air handlers in 2021, the top-level heat pump and ground-level air handler in 2023, and the mid-level air handler in 2020, along with earlier heat pump replacements featuring Carrier Coastal units. A new dryer was installed in March 2023, and the elevator gate has been updated for compliance with Weston's Law. With eight bedrooms, exceptional ocean frontage, multiple entertainment areas, extensive kitchen facilities, a private pool, theater room, elevator, and a prime location close to the center of Duck, this is a property that stands apart. Opportunities to own an eight-bedroom home in Duck are limited; finding one directly on the ocean with this combination of space, amenities, updates, and location...
