About this home
Welcome to the Captain Cottage | 224 Lost Colony Drive, Nags Head This newly built coastal cottage is tucked into the west side of Nags Head in the sought-after Vista Colony neighborhood—a community that truly offers the best of both worlds. From here, you're a short 4-minute walk to the Nags Head Town Park Trailhead, the gateway to some of the most scenic hiking trails on the Outer Banks. This 1.5-mile out-and-back route winds through the untouched beauty of the Nags Head Woods Preserve, all the way to the Albemarle Sound. It’s perfect for morning walks, trail runs, or peaceful nature strolls. And when you're ready to hit the beach, it's just a 14-minute walk (0.6 miles) via Barnes Street, with safe crossing at a stoplight and pedestrian crosswalk. Vista Colony residents also enjoy convenient access to some of the best public beach parking in the Outer Banks—17 spaces at Barnes Street alone, plus nearby options that make beach days a breeze. Inside, the Captain Cottage, designed by Florez Designs and built by SimpleSide Construction, is a classic three-level home filled with thoughtful upgrades and beach-inspired design. Ground Level: An oversized recreation room with mini bar opens directly to the backyard—ideal for entertaining. This level also includes a private bedroom and full bath, perfect as an income-producing Airbnb suite, guest quarters, or flex space. Main Level: The heart of the home features an open-concept kitchen and living space with an extended island, loads of natural light, and room to gather. The primary suite is tucked away on this floor with a spa-like ensuite bath—complete with a standalone soaking tub, fluted tile accents, and calming finishes inspired by the natural world. You’ll also find a half bath, entry foyer, and central laundry closet with stackable washer/dryer. Top Level: Upstairs are two large guest bedrooms that share a Jack-and-Jill bath, each with generous closet space and oversized windows. One even features a built-in bench, the perfect cozy reading nook. Professionally furnished by Site to Sea, this home is sold with a furniture package and fully decorated and move-in ready—a modern cottage retreat that blends indoor comfort with the outdoor lifestyle the Outer Banks is known for. Ready for immediate enjoyment or summer rental income, this is your opportunity to own a thoughtfully crafted home in one of Nags Head’s most beloved neighborhoods.
