Overview

Beautifully designed and decorated, located on the oceanfront in Southern Shores, Yellowtail is a 5-bedroom vacation home that is sure to impress. The moment you enter into the foyer, look up and admire the high ceiling and woodworking along the walls, look down to steal a glance of the compass engrained within the hardwood flooring, or look straight ahead to see what everyone wants to see when they walk into their beach house - the Atlantic Ocean! Yellowtail was built with an abundance of customizations and designed with unique details that are sure to make you fall in love with the house, the location, and amenities for guests to enjoy. It's as if industrial and coastal were to collide perfectly to create the vibe of this home. The exposed ducts along the top floor, the brass fixtures, and the raw woodwork lend to an industrial touch, while the coastal decor, color palette, and furnishings throughout don't let you forget that you are living "the beach life". A private saltwater pool that can be heated, poolside loungers, a sheltered hot tub, multiple levels of ocean view decks, and a bed swing on the mid-level deck are some of the outdoor features to look forward to. The top level deck offers one of the highest vantage points to watch the dolphins play in the surf. If you enjoy surf fishing, this house offers a fish cleaning station that makes cleaning and prepping the days catch simpler than ever.

Ground Floor

  • Rec room with pool table and lift door for indoor/outdoor living
  • Kitchenette with refrigerator drawers, icemaker, and sink
  • Shared bath
  • Outdoors: private saltwater pool, hot tub, open outdoor shower, private beach access

The ground floor rec room offers a pool table, a large mounted flatscreen TV, sofa and armchair seating, and a kitchenette with a sink, icemaker, refrigerator drawers, and cabinet storage. What makes this space unique and even more enjoyable is the glass-paned automatic lift door between the indoor lounge and the poolside covered seating area. Lift the door, let the breeze off the ocean refresh the air inside, and listen to the waves crash on shore right on the other side of the dune. Enter into the fully-fenced pool area to make a splash in the crystal blue pool, lay out on one of the poolside loungers, or wander over the private beach access to enjoy all that the ocean has to offer. Rinse off the sand and saltwater with ease in the open outdoor shower that is located in the pool area.

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.
