About this Property

  • 3 Bedrooms

A truly unique retreat, this oceanfront home is full of color, charming wood finishes, and lush greenery. When you aren't down on the beach, check out the nearby Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Family Water Adventures, and a plethora of galleries, eateries, and parks.

Back at your stay, rinse off the sand in the outdoor shower before finding yourself lounging in the brilliantly bold living room adorned with soft seating and a large TV. Step out onto the private balcony when you want the ocean breeze to kiss your skin. In the adjacent well-equipped kitchen, cooking will come easy with the ocean views never having to leave your sight. When it's time to eat, dine together at the formal dining table or pack a picnic to go.

Each of the bedrooms is retro, comfortable, and spacious. But when you aren't lounging here under the cool air of the central air-conditioning, spread out in the loft where an additional TV and sprawling sofa provide the perfect spot for movie nights.

End your evenings with a walk down to the beach, where the air is breezy, the sound of the waves crashing is therapeutic, and the memories cultivated are lifelong.

Belinda Pleva grew up serving ice cream out of her parent’s shop. She loved being part of what she calls “a happy business.” “I love it when people come into the shop and you hand them something, and it makes them smile,” Pleva says. “That moment when you hand an ice cream cone over to a little kid and their eyes just light up. That’s what I love about the ice cream business.”

 

In 1994, Pleva opened up her own ice cream and chocolate shop, Big Buck’s Ice Cream, in the brand-new Timbuk II Shopping Center in Corolla. Business was good, but something was missing.

 

“I was never satisfied with the ingredients in the ice creams and chocolates you could purchase back then. I wanted to serve my customers delicious flavors with ingredients they could actually pronounce,” Pleva says.

 

Pleva took a trip to Italy to study the gelaterias. She fell in love with the incredible flavors, and when she returned home to the Outer Banks, she began working tirelessly to perfect the flavors in her own ice cream.

 

Big Buck’s homemade ice cream combined the flavors of the Italian gelaterias and the richness of American ice cream. It quickly became a tourist favorite. After having the same unsatisfactory experience with the readymade chocolates she was selling, she also took a trip to Brussels to learn more about making handmade chocolates. Pleva brought the chocolate-making experience right back with her, and the result was the finest quality of chocolates on the Outer Banks.

 

After her huge success in the Corolla shop, Pleva was able to open up three more shops—one in Kitty Hawk, one in Manteo and one in Duck.
