About this Property
  • 8 Bedrooms
  • 9.5 Bathrooms

Just off the pool deck at Milepost 11.5 in Nags Head, Heart of the Sunrise offers something rare among Carolina Designs oceanfront homes: an elevator and eight bedrooms that each claim a private bath. Nine full baths and a half bath keep mornings unhurried for a large family gathering steps from the Atlantic. Waves do the rest.

Overview

Unwind and allow the oceanfront retreat, Heart of the Sunrise, to wrap your family in leisure during your next Outer Banks vacation. Meticulously designed with family relaxation and entertainment in mind, the home's layout includes spacious gathering areas along with bedroom suites that each offer a flatscreen TV and a private bathroom. Eleven TVs, a dedicated media room, and a lively recreation room give every age group somewhere to land, while the elevator makes coming and going effortless. Spend beautiful days enjoying oceanfront amenities to the scent of invigorating salt air and the soothing sound of waves reaching the shoreline, then gather for dinner with the ocean as your backdrop.

Six kings, two doubles, and two pyramid bunks make this an accommodating OBX vacation rental for extended families and multi-generational groups, and six parking spaces welcome everyone who arrives. A 28 x 12 private pool, hot tub, gas grill, and two outdoor showers complete the exterior. This is an outstanding Nags Head location, close to sightseeing, piers, dining, and shopping opportunities for all ages.

Ground Floor

  • Recreation room
  • King with private bath
  • Bedroom with two pyramid bunks and private bath
  • Shared full bath

Sleeping options on the ground level include one king bedroom and a second bedroom furnished with two pyramid bunks. Both bedrooms have private baths, and a shared full bath serves the level. The balance is dedicated to a lively recreation room.

Rec room doors open to a custom pool with refreshing water for leisurely swims. This outdoor space was designed to maximize areas for adult relaxation and child's play, and the pool deck offers ample lounge chairs for relaxing under clear Carolina skies. A gas grill is available to prepare BBQ meals, and the outdoor dining table with chairs is the perfect location to enjoy informal dining. Journeys to the Atlantic are easy from your private walkway that leads to sandy beaches for sunbathing, shoreline strolls, shelling, or riding waves as they rush for the coastline. Two outdoor showers make quick work of rinsing off, and as evening approaches, the bubbling hot tub is a haven for restful soaks and star gazing.
