SOUND OF SILENCE - Vacation rental home in Corolla, NC

The ground floor rec room is equipped with endless entertainment in mind, with three arcade games, a shuffleboard table, and a foosball table. Seating is arranged around a large flatscreen TV. A wet bar with a sink, full-sized refrigerator, and freezer drawer rounds out the rec room. Laundry facilities and a cabana bath are centrally located.

A bedroom with a custom-built queen-over-queen bunk, mounted flatscreen TV, and private bath with a double vanity and tiled walk-in shower is available on this level. A sliding glass door leads from the bedroom out to the pool deck.

Whether you enter the pool area from the sliding glass door in the rec room or the bunk bedroom, or descend the steps from the middle floor deck, you'll be glad you're here. Abundant in amenities and features, this is where you're going to wish you were all year long until you can return. The custom 45' x 30' private pool is reminiscent of one you'd find at a resort. A built-in in-pool hot tub, a second hot tub on the pool deck, and a basketball hoop are all features of the pool area. But that's not it! A custom rock formation with a waterslide and a waterfall takes the pool fun to a whole new level. The pool can be heated for an additional fee, and an outdoor shower is on hand for rinsing off.

The outdoor kitchen sets this pool area apart. Bar seating lines both the east and west sides of the cabana and there is a large mounted TV for those hanging out here. The outdoor kitchen is equipped with stainless steel top-of-the-line appliances (a dual fuel grill, a double gas burner, and a pizza oven), as well as an under-counter beverage fridge, an icemaker, a dishwasher, and a sink. There is a second flatscreen, perfect for TV viewing while relaxing in the pool. Placed around the pool are dining and lounging options that invite your entire vacation group to spend time together at the pool all week long.

The middle floor is primarily dedicated to bedding options with a soundside sitting area centrally located. A desk is available in this space should you have to hop online for a quick work task while away from the office. A sliding glass door leads to the wraparound deck with views of the Sound and overlooks the pool. There are four spacious bedrooms, each with private baths with walk-in showers and double vanities. Three bedrooms have king beds, and the fourth has a custom-built queen-over-queen bunk. All four bedrooms have direct access to the wraparound deck, making early morning coffee or a quiet moment with a water view easy to come by. One of the king bedrooms has a TV, and a soaking tub in addition to the walk-in shower.

Ascend the staircase up to the top floor. An open concept floor plan means the great room, kitchen, dining area, and sitting area are all in sight as you reach the top step; however, you'll likely be captivated by the floor-to-ceiling windows that look out to the west and wash this room in natural light. The great room is beautifully furnished with a sofa, several armchairs, and ottomans. A seasonal gas fireplace (available October through March) is set into a stone wall with glass-shelved bookcases on both sides. A mounted flatscreen TV is positioned over the fireplace. The dining area and the great room have sliding glass doors leading out to the soundside deck. A door from the dining area goes out to the screened-in deck with an outdoor dining set for those who enjoy dining al fresco. The kitchen is equipped to impress even the most seasoned chefs with two sinks, double ovens and a 6-burner gas range with a pot filler, two dishwashers, a large side-by-side refrigerator and freezer, beverage fridge, icemaker, Keurig, and coffee maker. Between the appliances and the stunning detail work in the kitchen, many in your group will likely want to fix a delicious meal for all to enjoy. A sitting area with a table for four and a half bath are located opposite the great room.

A spacious king suite is available on this floor. A sitting area with two armchairs, a seasonal gas fireplace, a flatscreen TV, a large walk-in closet, and access to the soundview deck via a sliding glass door are all features of this bedroom that are sure to be enjoyed. The private bath has a massive walk-in tile shower, a soaking tub, and a double vanity.
