Coast-O-Retro delivers a bold and memorable Outer Banks getaway in the heart of Waves, NC. Beach retro flair meets wide open coastal comfort. This five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home is thoughtfully designed for both relaxation and entertainment, featuring hardwood floors, newly rebuilt decks with low-maintenance PVC railings, and a Fortified Roof installed in 2025 for added durability and peace of mind. Set in a uniquely protected location, the home enjoys rare ocean-to-sound views that feel expansive and unobstructed. The open-concept layout welcomes you with multiple generous living spaces, a fully equipped top-floor kitchen, and bright, sun-filled gathering areas perfect for hosting friends and family. En suite bedrooms are thoughtfully distributed across both levels, offering privacy and comfort for owners and guests alike. The lower level is built for fun, showcasing a game room complete with vintage arcade games, a pool table, and a wet bar, an ideal hangout after a beach day. Outdoors, enjoy a private pool, soothing hot tub, and a wide sundeck designed to take in panoramic island views. A large grassy yard provides extra room for pets, kids, or quiet outdoor relaxation. Located just a short walk to the beach in the laid-back village of Waves, part of the beloved Tri-Villages of Rodanthe, Waves, and Salvo—this home places you close to local dining, surf shops, water sports, and the Cape Hatteras National Seashore. Pet-friendly and rental-ready, Coast-O-Retro offers both lifestyle enjoyment and strong investment potential. One of the property’s most distinctive advantages is its setting between two classic Outer Banks campgrounds, helping preserve open 360-degree sightlines of the ocean, island, and sound, an increasingly rare feature in today’s market. Just steps away, the nearby KOA adds to the vacation vibe with a popular on-site restaurant and lively poolside tiki bar, allowing you to enjoy a resort-style atmosphere while still maintaining the privacy and comfort of your own coastal retreat. With the rental season approaching, now is the ideal time to buy before the spring market increases competition, especially while interest rates sit near multi-year lows. A rare opportunity that aligns timing and value.
