SIR WALTER RALEIGH - Vacation rental home in Nags Head, NC

A private home theater sets the stage for movie nights at Sir Walter Raleigh, an eight bedroom oceanfront estate from Carolina Designs in Nags Head. The adjoining recreation room keeps every generation entertained. An elevator makes moving between levels easy, a private pool and hot tub wait just outside, and a private beach walkway with a dune top deck carries you straight to the Atlantic.

Set at Milepost 10.5 within the Nags Head Shores community, this spacious retreat was thoughtfully designed to accommodate large groups in comfort, with professional decor, eight bedrooms that each have a private bath, and extensive indoor and outdoor amenities. Water views can be enjoyed from both the mid and top level decks, creating lasting memories throughout your stay, while free high-speed wireless internet keeps everyone connected. Twelve TVs are spread throughout the home, and a seasonal gas fireplace (October through March) makes the great room especially inviting in the cooler months.
