Gather everyone for dinner at Seaside Serenity, a seven-bedroom oceanfront home from Carolina Designs at Milepost 7.5 in Kill Devil Hills. Cedar shakes, wraparound porches, and crisp white trim set the tone, while an elevator, a covered dune-top gazebo, and a private pool with cabana keep every one of your 16 guests happily occupied.
Overview
Escape to waterside tranquility in a classic Carolina beach home where the Atlantic is the view from nearly every deck. Spend easy vacation mornings watching the waves roll in from the covered dune-top gazebo or the open dune deck, then stroll the shore looking for sea glass. Proximity to the ocean's edge is just one of the many highlights of this OBX vacation rental. Additional amenities include a private pool, a hot tub, an indoor rec room, a poolside cabana, an elevator, and a well-stocked kitchen, so this home has everything you need for a comfortable, relaxing trip to the Outer Banks. Eight parking spaces, six full baths, and two half baths make hosting a large group simple.
