Welcome to Sandy Cheeks—a refined coastal retreat in the heart of Corolla.
Perfectly positioned on the third row in Ocean Sands, Section D, this thoughtfully updated home offers an exceptional blend of location, ocean views, and true turn-key ownership. Just steps from the community beach access—less than 500 feet away—and directly across from community tennis courts, the best of Corolla is quite literally at your doorstep.
Meticulously maintained and improved, the home features a new fortified roof, new HVAC system with upgraded ductwork, brand-new spa, fresh interior paint, modern fixtures, updated baths, and durable LVP flooring throughout. The result is a clean, coastal aesthetic designed for effortless enjoyment and low-maintenance ownership.
Inside, sun-filled living spaces welcome you from the moment you arrive. The top-level great room offers an open, airy layout ideal for gathering, relaxing, or simply enjoying the coastal light and breezes. An elevated ship’s watch with ocean views provides a peaceful nook for reading, working, or quiet reflection. The well-appointed kitchen flows seamlessly to indoor dining or alfresco meals on the screened porch, while a spacious sun deck offers the perfect setting for morning coffee or afternoon unwinding. This level also includes a private ensuite bedroom with deck access and a convenient half bath.
The mid-level hosts an additional ensuite bedroom with access to the covered deck, where the new hot tub awaits for evenings under the stars. Two additional bedrooms—one with semi-private bath access and deck entry—complete this floor, along with the home’s laundry area. A covered carport with dry entry ensures easy arrivals in any weather.
Whether you’re walking to the soft-sand beaches, biking through Corolla, or enjoying nearby dining, shopping, and attractions, Sandy Cheeks delivers the quintessential Outer Banks lifestyle. With its prime location, thoughtful upgrades, and effortless livability, this coastal haven is ideal as a vacation retreat, investment property, or cherished second home.
