Savor this phenomenal and fabulously located appealing Outer Banks home! Witness spectacular expansive vistas of the ocean, the beautiful town of Buxton, and the famed lighthouse (whose light flashes through the home and on the dunes as you gaze out looking over the ocean from the top and bottom oceanfront decks at nighttime!). An oceanfront home, it is located on Old Lighthouse Road and is our closest detached home to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse and provides an unequaled blend of luxury and seclusion. With a secluded beach right out front and stretches of the same to the north and south, there is only a 200-yard walk south between the surf and dunes - along one of the most handsome stretches of coastline in the OBX - that will take you to the original Cape Hatteras lighthouse location.

All new for 2024, this home offers new floor throughout the home. Four generous bedrooms and laundry and nursery/reading room make up the first level - including a six-person hot tub on the oceanfront lower deck. Guests will adore the full top floor main level featuring high cathedral ceilings with fantastic vistas. Open kitchen, breakfast bar, dining area and half bath accommodate huge families comfortably. The sunny loft offers peaceful solitude and stellar vistas overlooking the main floor, the ocean, the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, and the striking Buxton beach community. Fish, surf, swim, and beachcomb - relax, relax and build lifelong memories from this ideal oceanfront Outer Banks location in the very special township of Buxton!

Finding the best Hatteras rental home experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• The earlier you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Summertime is high season in the Hatteras area. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is a good way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking a perfect Hatteras rental home:

• First, have your family choose date ranges and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Oceanfront dog-friendly home close to sand with views & private hot tub has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before you reserve your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what is suitable for your group.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be respectful. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
