Tide's a Wastin' | Oceanfront | Private Pool and Hot Tub
New for 2026: New to Outer Banks Blue! Mid-level bedroom with two bunk beds converted to a bedroom with one bunk bed (double over double) with trundle. New refrigerator in top-level kitchen. New carpeting and paint throughout the top-level. New deck added between the two mid-level decks, allowing pool access directly from the beach walkway.
One-of-a-Kind Oceanfront Footprint Tide's a Wastin' stands out with one of the widest oceanfront lots in the area—100 feet across—offering rare panoramic views from nearly every angle of the home. Originally two individual cottages, the property was reconstructed as a multi-family escape with over 5,400 square feet of living space. Expansive oceanfront decks run the full width of the house, creating multiple spaces to relax, dine, or take in the breeze, while the large dune line provides pool deck privacy and protection from on-shore swell.
Room to Gather, Space to Spread Out Inside, the layout is designed for comfort, convenience, and group travel. With eight bedrooms—six of which are master suites—and multiple common areas across two floors, guests can enjoy time together or find quiet corners to unwind. A large kitchen and dining space with double appliances and prep counters offers seating for nearly 30 guests, while additional features like a game room with pool table, two living areas, and elevator access make the space functional for groups of all ages.
Elevated Outdoor Living Outside, guests will find a private pool, a hot tub, volleyball area, fish cleaning station, and private walkway access to the beach. Covered carports and generous front parking make arrivals easy, and thoughtful extras like three outdoor showers and quality Polywood furniture provide added comfort after a long day on the sand.
