206 Atlantic Street E, Kill Devil Hills

Opportunity awaits! Nestled between the highways in Kill Devil Hills, just 500’ to a life guarded beach access, this charming cottage is a hidden gem brimming with potential, waiting to be transformed into your dream coastal retreat. This quaint old-timey cottage is buttressed by a new fortified roof and a recently reinforced short-piling foundation. Easy to show. Rarely do you find a property at this coveted location listed at this price. A delightful front porch welcomes you to the coastal life with the promise of salty air, ocean sounds and breezes. Inside is an updated kitchen, LVT flooring and carpeting. With further interior renovation, this blank canvas offers the perfect opportunity to craft a personalized haven that blends cozy comfort at a priceless seaside location. Two modest bedrooms at the east and south facing corner on the main level provide for potential cozy retreats. The loft area, with its own bathroom, has served as a third bedroom but has numerous other usage options. In the rear, a large multi-purpose room, with a wet bar and convenient bathroom, could be used as the family game room, gathering space or even, potentially, an in-law apartment. The house has a compact footprint—sitting on a deep, mostly cleared lot with some mature shrubs. The seller says the fig and pecan trees bear fruit! The yard, with a large new deck, offers enough privacy to enjoy an intimate gathering for an afternoon barbeque or an evening stargazing with friends. The location is central to all, in a great beachside community. Just steps from the beach, you can start your day with sunrise walks along the shore and then have breakfast or lunch at a restaurant up the street. This property’s proximity to the ocean and its untapped potential makes it a rare find. With a little love and creativity, this adorable cottage is poised to become a cherished seaside sanctuary, perfectly tailored to your vision.
