Country Elegance

Tucked away in the charming community of Avon Village, this classic gift shop has a lot of local flavor, and plenty of surprises that are wholly unique on Hatteras Island. Small in stature but big on charm, Country Elegance is a unique destination to discover a wealth of goodies that capture the Hatteras Island state of mind.

Country Elegance is located just off of the “main drag” of Hatteras Island - (NC Highway 12) - in the Avon Village neighborhood, which is located adjacent to the Pamlico Sound, and which features a number of primarily residential homes. This local setting perfectly mirrors the store itself, which has a collection of homemade items, unique gifts, jewelry pieces, decor items, and all sorts of goodies that can’t be found anywhere else on the Outer Banks. Locally owned and operated, visitors are encouraged to chat with the friendly owner, who is happy to answer questions and provide a little insight on the culture and history of the local Avon community. With lots of unique goodies to go around, and a friendly and downhome atmosphere that perfectly represents the slower pace of island life, Country Elegance is a gem of a find for shoppers on Hatteras Island.
