Unique opportunity to own a solidly built, classic Old Nags Head–style home in an X flood zone in Southern Shores, just a short walk (0.02 miles) from the beach. This spacious property features abundant covered porches, outdoor living spaces and workshop, along with 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, offering plenty of flexibility for extended family, guests, or rental potential. The main living area includes 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, along with a great room, dining area, and kitchen with nook. Beautiful heart pine floors, a beamed ceiling in the great room, and tongue-and-groove accents add warmth and character. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a commercial-grade range and hood ventilation system, ideal for cooking and entertaining. A wraparound porch off the main living area provides the perfect place to relax with a book or gather with family and friends.
The lower level offers two separate living areas. One area includes a bedroom with stacked washer and dryer (new in 2023), full bath, sitting area, and kitchenette with full-size refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, and coffee maker—creating a perfect space for an in-law suite, guest quarters, or a private family retreat. The other space is a private ensuite with its own entrance, providing excellent privacy for guests.
The homesite is nestled in a maritime forest setting surrounded by gorgeous old live oak trees, offering natural beauty, shade, and privacy. Additional highlights include abundant storage, a workshop, carport, and a deep lot with potential room for a pool. Recent updates include a new fortified roof (2026), new tankless water heater (2022), with washer, dryer, and refrigerator in the primary living area all within the last five years.
This is a rare opportunity to own a solid coastal home with space, character, charm, and versatility in a highly desirable beachside location.
