About This Home
Perched approximately 45 feet above sea level on a rare 0.43-acre homesite, this custom-built Kitty Hawk retreat offers unmatched ocean and golf course views, exceptional construction quality, and no HOA. Designed and constructed by the original owner, a licensed general contractor, the home was thoughtfully positioned to maximize privacy, elevation, and unobstructed views while remaining just a short 8-minute walk to the beach. The builder/seller of the home, spared no detail in its design, construction, and functionality. Every aspect of the property was carefully considered to maximize durability, efficiency, storage, comfort, and long-term enjoyment. Inspired by classic Old Nags Head architecture, the home features a distinctive double-pitched roof, endless wraparound covered porches, and more than 2,000 square feet of covered and sun decking. This timeless design is not only visually appealing but also highly functional, helping to shield the exterior walls from direct sun exposure and wind-driven rain while creating exceptional outdoor living spaces year-round. Built with longevity and durability in mind, the home features structural plywood sheathing and flooring throughout, 2x6 exterior wall construction for added strength and insulation (versus standard 2x4 construction), LVL girder beams, stainless steel flashing at deck connections, and 50 Anderson Low-E windows and sliding glass doors. All exterior trim and cornice boards are constructed of premium 5/4-inch and 3/4-inch solid red cedar for long-lasting performance and classic coastal character. Interior bathroom walls are insulated for sound attenuation. The 9-foot ceilings throughout create an open and spacious feel. The versatile floor plan includes a spacious loft that can easily serve as a fifth bedroom, home office, media room, or flex space. The septic permit is on file. The views are truly extra ordinary. Enjoy incredible ocean views from the main living level and even more spectacular views from the kitchen. In addition to the ocean views, the home overlooks the 10th and 18th fairways and greens, providing sweeping golf course views that are rarely found in Kitty Hawk. Additional features include two oversized garages with abundant storage and workshop space, a large interior storage room (ideal for safes or collectables), attic storage with plywood flooring, an outdoor shower for rinsing off after the beach, and a ManaBloc plumbing system that allows individual fixture shut-offs. The living room features a fireplace with an existing gas line in place for future conversion, while currently functioning as a traditional wood-burning fireplace. Recent improvements include a new FORTIFIED Roof installed in 2025 and a new 4.0-ton & 2.0 ton, 18 SEER HVAC system with WiFi-enabled thermostat installed in May 2026. These significant upgrades provide improved energy efficiency, storm resilience, and peace of mind for years to come. The home has been incredibly well maintained by the owner/builder since it was constructed. The property also features a 50-gallon stainless steel Le Bleu purified water system with UV filtration, a generator-ready subpanel for storm preparedness, and approved pool plans. The sellers obtained Town of Kitty Hawk approval for a pool in 2025 based on setback and lot coverage requirements. No flood insurance is required. This is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously constructed coastal home where quality craftsmanship, stunning views, thoughtful design, and long-term durability come together in one exceptional package.
