26232 Wimble Shores Drive, Salvo

Located in the peaceful Wimble Shores community of Salvo, Sea La Vie is a well-cared-for 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath oceanside cottage with views that remind you why people fall in love with Hatteras Island. Two new HVAC systems were installed in 2023. The home was resided in 2014, and according to a previous listing, the polybutylene plumbing was replaced. The first level offers three comfortable bedrooms and flexible living space. Two queen bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while a third bedroom with two twin beds sits near a full hallway bathroom. A flex space currently serves as a fourth sleeping area with a daybed that converts to a king and closet but remains open to the hallway without a door or wall separation. The home was originally designed as a four-bedroom property, and with a four-bedroom septic permit on file, this space could easily be converted back into a true fourth bedroom if desired. Upstairs, the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area feels bright and welcoming, with views of St. Waves Lake adding to the home’s coastal charm. The kitchen features custom concrete countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an island with bar seating. Step outside onto the sun deck to enjoy the coastal breeze and peaceful natural setting. A convenient half bath completes this level. On the ground level, you’ll find a 12x20 air-conditioned storage room/workshop, along with a tiki bar area and outdoor shower — perfect after a day at the beach. The community beach access walkway is just a short stroll away, winding through a canopy of trees on the way to the ocean. Wimble Shores is tucked into the heart of Salvo, offering a quiet setting while still being close to some of Hatteras Island’s favorite spots. Spend the day exploring Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge, climb the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, or visit the historic Chicamacomico Life-Saving Station. You’re also just minutes from Real Kiteboarding, Waves Deli, and all the water sports and small-town charm the Tri-Villages are known for. If you’re looking for a classic Hatteras Island cottage with character, views, and easy beach access, Sea La Vie is one you’ll want to see.
