About this property

Oceanfront,Front Row,Many Upgrades In&Out,4X4,Sleeps16,PetFriendly, POOL&HOTTUB

Aptly named, the home is truly in the best of all worlds, “Away From It All” as it is on the North End of Carova Beach with a 100 ft wide private lot, where horses running the beach are plentiful. It was previously listed by Twiddy Realty, and it is a great home with impeccable decor and major renovations now inside and out AND with views like no other! It is available exclusively to offer the amazing Carova Beach lifestyle —- and stunning views of the ocean waves, where you can even watch the dolphins play out the windows of the great room, and see the horses!

There are 4 King Size bedrooms with private bathroom en-suite, and 2 more bedrooms each with 2 bunk bed sets, so sleeps 16 in beds comfortably, for a grand total of 12 beds (snafu at very top says 20 beds —but it is actually a total of 12 beds and sleeps 16 and 6 total bedrooms)—and ALL linens provided with beds made and ready when you arrive. Total of 7 bathrooms: six full and one half bath. Please note all the King Size Beds offer great comfort with pillow toppers that will help you rest after a day on the beach and in the pool with the family!

It is approx. 4000 sf of living space, with a large private pool 12x32 and hot tub (open Memorial Day May to just end of week after Labor Day season, please ask if concerns for pool and/or hot tub being opened while there at other times), a game room with pool table, couch, drink refrigerator, full size refrigerator, and brand new 2023 big ice maker installed in lower level, too, Plus there is even an outdoor basketball and horseshoe area.

A Picture Perfect kitchen is what you will find on the upper floor with stainless steel appliances, a very large dining room table that will seat 10 or separate for 2 tables to seat 8 at each table, a small breakfast table for 4, and then 4 bar stools at the counter top with the setting surrounded by views of the ocean from every angle! AND, just renovated entire kitchen March 2021 with brand new cabinets and brand new butcher block counter tops, brand new smart top of the line LG oven and brand new stainless steel refrigerator summer 2022! Now ALL new flooring in dining area in fall 2023!

***We hope you thoroughly enjoy the recent improvements made to the kitchen! Please help us keep our butcher block counter tops in “like-new” condition. We have numerous cutting boards left out on the counters for your convenience. Please use a cutting board when placing any food items on the counter tops or when cutting. Thank you for helping us keep our home looking soo beautiful!***

And of course the largest great room is on the upper floor off from the kitchen. And to complete the top floor is the largest of the 4 king size en-suite bedrooms complete with a small office space, too—with desk, chair, and 2 more chairs for sitting area.

And New flooring for Spring/Summer 2024 just installed end of 2023 season on upper level great room and dining room IS Now all in place as of November 2023! It IS Gorgeous flooring! When look at pics will still see few with carpet as loved how it showed off views from there…but the new luxurious LVP flooring is now in dining room and great room replacing the carpets therein giving it such an amazing updated look!

More home decor added as well as new kitchen items ranging from A Brand New large Shrimp Pot, new kitchen towels and other accessories like potato peelers and the like just added in late 2023 for 2024!

It is a very spacious and well appointed home with 4 decks on both sides —8 total decks, with Aruba blue and white Polywood Adirondack chairs, and pool furniture (loungers and chairs around pool and on decks only—please bring own beach chairs as not provided )Also, yes, there is a charcoal grill! Some charcoal and lighter fluid is left at the beginning of the season always, but please replace charcoal and lighter fluid so next guests will have ready to grill out,too, upon arrival. And brand new white dining polywood table and chairs just added 2022 for outside dining pleasure! Late 2023 More Blue Aruba Adirondack chairs were added to the decks overlooking the ocean PLUS polywood brand new Aruba Blue and Grey chaise loungers for around the pool fun times!

Watch the ocean as you relax in master suite, or while dining, from the pool, while preparing meals in the kitchen and even when bathing…yes blind for privacy or open and enjoy ocean views and even see horses passing by. There are numerous Gorgeous Views to be had from absolutely everywhere at Away From It All!

This Is the Oceanfront Home you and your family have been looking for to enjoy the OBX in all its glory! This is A Dream Home and will be your dream to enjoy it,too! And excited to announce Many New Upgrades late 2023, and many upgrades completed in 2022: including other recent additional new lighting inside and out, new bedding and pillows for King Beds, More new polywood Adirondack Aruba chairs, landscaping updates, plus brand new windows, new furnishings for great room, new ocean decor and new decorative coastal themed pillows and much more —ever since New Ownership & Now New Management for 2024 season & NEW amazing Cleaners hired end of 2023 to continue into 2024 —So Away From It All is amazing already but even more upgrades and changes underway now for the upcoming 2024 season to make it even that much greater than ever before! We are so excited watching it all come together!

ALL of this above is further bring complemented by the ENTIRE exterior of home/railings/fence around pool and simply “everything” exterior being painted before season 2024! Stay tuned for more photos to come.
And the painting of this home has begun already here in late December 2023!

You will love peace, tranquility and beauty of Away From It All with THE most magical views ever!

This is the Beach that truly has it all #AwayFromItAll

Please do note that a 4 WD Vehicle IS required to access this oceanfront home as it is such a remote luxury! Also it is important that one Airs down the tires to 20PSI before enter onto the sand and there is an airing down station just before go off the pavement. It is highly recommended arrival during daylight areas and also Not at high tide. To determine the tides, google tides charts for Corolla,NC for date of your arrival and avoid the high tide noted times.

AND you will see lots of ponies typically all around the house….and please see last photos ..as you never know when they may just just choose Away From It All to spend the night like they did in these photos …. What a great surprise for guests to have spend the night ponies in front of the house here!

Also, only a starter supply of toilet paper and paper towels Are provided. You will need to bring more with you for the week or plan a trip to the store. And you will need To bring your own dishwasher and laundry pods, extra soap, own shampoo, conditioner, body lotion,etc.

Also, we Love FurChildren—but extra cleaning is required after they leave, therefore, there is a pet fee required for maximum of 2 dogs allowed—-cameras do reveal entries SO if pets come onto premises without pet fee paid, then guests can be asked to leave immediately with no refunds given and/or forfeit entire security deposit—so please if intend to bring pet(s) let us know and do pay the pet fee prior to arrival....this is non-negotiable and we do not like to see guests lose their trip/monies over this issue.

Closest grocery stores are in Corolla: Food Lion and Harris Teeter. And ice is available for purchase at the Fire Station on Ocean Pearl Road on the sand close to the home.

WiFi is by Century Link BUT it is out on the sand and signals aren’t always great and if a storm then WiFi can be out for extended period of time—please know this is out of our control. Recommend bringing a “hot spot” for back up if know you must have internet while there. It seems Verizon has the strongest signals out in this area. Please note Century Link is ONLY provider out there and a brand new router was put in spring 2021 so as up to date as can be in this area. In welcome notebook there is the WiFi network and password (please remember to put password in exactly as shown—all Caps as shown).

****Note a change on beach passes effective as of 2022—beach passes are being obtained and left at the home for guests to use…please leave them at the home when you depart or there will be a charge of $400 for every beach pass that is missing….new policy this year where so many per home to use and limited passes available so these are being provided for guests now --again do return them to where found them at home upon departure…thank you*****


And if interest in booking for less than 7 night stays in March, April, or In Late October, November—Please message me through VRBO.com, and will override the usual 7 night stay requirement for those four months, thank you.

Come experience Away From It All and take home some absolutely over the top amazing memories!

Stunning stay, position and amenities. Ensure you have everything with you as far way to drive to stock up! Very comfortable, lots of space and easy to communicate with. Very fortunate to see many horses during our 5 day stay!

Summer Vacation Getaway
This was our first time vacationing in Corolla & we really enjoyed the beauty and solitude of the area. Of course, seeing the wild horses was pretty amazing as well! Communication responses from Amy were quick, helpful, and always friendly. We had a really great vacation week!

Away From It All
It definitely is away from it all. Once you get on the beach, you need to travel 10 miles up the beach to get to the house. It is 1 1/2 miles from the Virginia border. One of the perks is being able to watch the sunrise from the back of the house and the sunset from the front each day. Even though the owners have done many updates inside the property, the outside shows signs of age.
