Chez la Mer – Oceanfront 5BR Sanderling Home with Private Walkway & Big Views
Experience classic Duck oceanfront living at Chez la Mer, a 5-bedroom retreat in the coveted Sanderling community with its own private dune walk to the beach. Positioned between the Atlantic Ocean and Currituck Sound in a low‑density, nature‑focused neighborhood, this home is ideal for guests seeking wide beaches, uncrowded shoreline, and a peaceful coastal setting. Inside, the top‑level great room is framed by picture windows that keep the ocean in full view, with vaulted ceilings, comfortable seating, and coastal décor that echo the colors of sea and sky. An ocean‑view dining area and well‑equipped kitchen with double ovens and generous prep space make it easy to gather for seafood dinners, puzzles, and card games with the waves as your backdrop. Step through the sliders to the expansive oceanfront deck for sunrise coffee, afternoon lounging, and stargazing after dark. Five bedrooms and four full baths are spread over multiple levels, giving everyone space and privacy. Oceanfront bedrooms let you fall asleep to the sound of the surf, while additional queen, twin, and bunk options work well for extended family or two families traveling together. Home comforts such as central heating and air, Wi‑Fi, cable/satellite TVs, and in‑home laundry help you settle into an easy, comfortable beach routine. Outside, your private walkway leads directly over the dune to a wide stretch of sandy beach perfect for shelling, sea‑glass hunting, and long shoreline walks. Multiple decks and a ground‑level covered area provide both sun and shade, and the outdoor shower keeps sand and saltwater where they belong—outside. This stretch of beach is a favorite for dolphin watching, pelican fly‑bys, and quiet mornings with nothing but ocean sounds. As part of the Sanderling community, guests have access to soundside paths and a pier that’s great for crabbing, fishing, and sunset views over the Currituck Sound. In season, you can also enjoy the Sanderling Racquet and Swim Club amenities, including community pool and tennis, all set within a family‑oriented neighborhood that prioritizes natural beauty, wildlife, and a low‑key atmosphere. Nearby, the Pine Island Audubon Preserve offers miles of maritime forest and soundside trails for birdwatching, photography, and peaceful nature walks along the edge of the sound. When you’re ready to explore, follow the multi‑use path or take a short drive to the village of Duck for soundfront boardwalks, boutique shopping, coffee, and waterfront dining. Iconic Outer Banks sites—including the Wright Brothers National Memorial, Jockey’s Ridge State Park, Jennette’s Pier, Roanoke Island attractions, and Currituck Beach Lighthouse—are easy day trips up and down the coast. Chez la Mer is ideal for guests who want a quiet, well‑kept oceanfront home in a nature‑minded community, with big views, direct beach access, and convenient proximity to Duck and the Pine Island Audubon Preserve
