1696 Surf Song * 2 Min Walk to Beach
Charming Oceanside Cottage Unwind in this charming coastal cottage by the sea with expansive views of the Atlantic shoreline. Beautifully decorated and well-equipped with everything your family needs for an extended OBX visit, Surf Song is the perfect home away from home! Sitting just 150-ft. from the Topsail Arch beach access, you'll enjoy ocean views and a short walk to the beach.
As you pull up to this beautiful home, you'll find plenty of parking space and room for one car beneath the house. A dry entry takes you into a ground-level landing with a laundry closet and steps to the mid-level. Outside, a park-style charcoal grill is available for cooking up your catch of the day and an enclosed outdoor shower helps to rinse off the sand from your toes.
The main entry is on the mid-level along with a den and three of the home's four bedrooms. In the den, a Queen Sleeper Sofa is available for extra sleeping space and doubles as a great place to relax around the entertainment center with TV/DVD/VCR. The kids will love the bedroom with 2 Twin Beds or the bedroom with a DuoBunk Bed while the adults will get a great night's rest in a comfortable Queen Bedroom that enjoys Deck Access. Two full-sized hall Bathrooms are accessible on this level along with a large covered deck—the perfect place to sit and relax while you enjoy your favorite novel.
Upstairs, a large great room is comprised of a cozy Living Area w/ TV/DVD, a large Dining table with seating for 8, and a fully-equipped kitchen with stainless appliances, bar seating for 2, and everything you need to whip up a gourmet seafood masterpiece. A wall of windows stares out onto a large sun deck with ocean and dune views. The final bedroom features a Queen Bed and has access to a Full Bathroom in the hall. The best part of your day will be soaking in the salty ocean breeze while sipping some fresh brewed coffee on the screened porch.
Walking Distance to Corolla Restaurants When you book Surf Song, you'll be close to local landmarks, great food, and plenty of modern conveniences! The Harris Teeter shopping center is conveniently located right across the highway for all your grocery and supply needs. After picking up your items, swing next door to Urban Kitchen or Pizzazz Pizza for a bite to eat. Duck Donuts and Island Smoothie are great options for a sweet treat and for a unique bar experience, try Off the Wall Tap House. About 6 miles North, the history buffs in your group will love touring the Historic Whalehead Club and the Currituck Beach Lighthouse. To get a true Corolla experience, don't forget to take a safari-style wild horse tour where you can watch the Corolla wild mustangs roam the 4x4 beaches. No matter how you choose to spend your vacation, Surf Song is the perfect home for making memories!
