Agent Comments
If you’re drawn to the magic of Ocracoke Island, the quiet mornings, salty breezes, and tucked away charm; this is your chance for an entry-level opportunity in one of the Outer Banks’ most beloved destinations.
Tucked on a peaceful dead-end street, this charming tiny cottage offers a low-maintenance path to island living without sacrificing opportunity. It’s the kind of place where less becomes more. More time on the water, more memories with family, more bike rides through the village, more evenings on the porch amongst the cedar trees.
A 3-bedroom septic system and 3-bedroom/2-bath water meter are already in place, offering a rare and valuable opportunity for future additions. Whether you envision enhancing the existing footprint or building onto your investment over time, the groundwork is ready.
Inside, the layout is simple and inviting, with a lofted sleeping space and comfortable living area. Outside, a screened porch nestled among cedar trees becomes your go-to spot for morning coffee or unwinding after a day at the beach.
Turnkey and already a strong performer as a rental, this home proves that a smaller footprint can still deliver big returns. The current owners used the property frequently during the peak summer rental season and still generated an impressive rental income. Sold fully furnished including two beach cruisers.
Stay high and dry, this home was elevated in 2023 for added peace of mind. During the lift, a new roof was installed on the house and screened porch. The underpinning and insulation were fully replaced. Additional 2023 upgrades include a new loft window, front door, pantry door, bathroom door, stackable washer and dryer, water heater, updated plumbing lines and LifeProof flooring was installed in the bathroom.
This authentic Ocracoke cottage has a queen bed in the a-frame loft and a pull out sofa bed in the living room. A private screened porch amongst the cedar trees expands the living area and invites you to relax and enjoy the coastal breeze year-round. A garden shed provides convenient storage for beach gear and tools. A spacious outdoor shower completes the coastal lifestyle experience.
Affordable, flexible, and full of potential—this is your chance to claim a piece of Ocracoke and make it your own.
