Overview

Whatever the season, good times are in bloom at The Gardenia House, a beautiful 12-bedroom oceanfront estate at Milepost 8 in Kill Devil Hills. With over 8,000 square feet of living space that incorporate twelve bedrooms and many common areas, this seaside mansion can comfortably accommodate a multi-family group. Relax by the pool, or enjoy the spectacular views of the ocean and the Wright Brothers Memorial. Indoor entertainment choices range from billiards to a home theater. Ocean proximity of this estate is a highlight - the waves of the Atlantic are just over the dunes, accessible by a private beach walkway. Start each day with a stroll along the shore or a dip in the sea.
