Safe & Sound offers all the benefits of new construction and modern amenities plus the charm and character found throughout historic Manteo. This gorgeous soundfront home is located in the picturesque Marshes Light community, which includes a marina with optional use of a boat slip. You'll be just steps away from the boardwalk that runs along Shallowbag Bay to downtown Manteo, where you'll find a variety of unique shopping, dining and family-friendly activities.

High-end design and thoughtful details such as shiplap accent walls and plantation shutters will make you feel like you're in Southern Living magazine. After a day at the beach or exploring town, come home and relax in the open-concept great room with gorgeous hardwood floors and a view of the sound. The chef in the family will appreciate the gourmet kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances including a double oven. Stylish yet practical hardwood flooring runs throughout the common areas and all bedrooms. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main floor and includes a luxurious bath with double vanity and custom tiled walk-in shower. You'll have plenty of opportunities for outdoor living with several porches plus a meticulously landscaped yard. Upstairs, a second master bedroom with ensuite bath provides additional privacy for your traveling companions. Two more generously sized bedrooms share a hall bath. Curl up with a book or catch up on work in the upstairs den while enjoying a fantastic view of the sound. A deck located just off the den is the perfect place to watch the sunset in the evenings.

Marshes Light is a quaint boating community with a private marina, and guests of Safe & Sound have the option of using the designated boat slip (additional fee required - call for details). A public boat ramp is located nearby. Safe & Sound is a kayaker's dream, with convenient access to the Shallowbag Bay. Explore the protected salt marsh canals, waterways and wildlife of Roanoke Island's coast. Bring your own kayaks or rent them from Kitty Hawk Kites in downtown Manteo, where you can also sign up for guided kayak tours.

Downtown Manteo is within walking distance, so be sure to set aside a day or two to explore this hidden gem of the Outer Banks. You'll find cobblestone streets and Jacobean architecture representative of the town's Elizabethan origins. Walk to the Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse for a trip back in time, or cross the bridge over to Roanoke Island Festival Park where you'll find The Pavilion Outdoor Theatre, a live-entertainment venue with lawn-style amphitheater seating that hosts concerts and festivals throughout the year. When you're ready to hit the beach, you'll be just a quick ten-minute drive over the bridge to the Nags Head public accesses with free parking.
