Beautifully Updated Duck Retreat – Ocean Views, Private Pool & Prime Location!
An exceptional opportunity to own a meticulously updated coastal retreat in the heart of Duck! Perfectly situated on the oceanside of Highway 12, just six lots from the beach, this beautifully maintained home offers the ideal combination of privacy, coastal charm, modern conveniences, and an unbeatable location. Nestled among gorgeous, mature live oak trees, the home feels wonderfully secluded yet is just a short stroll to the beach and an easy walk or bike ride to downtown Duck's shops, restaurants, and attractions!
Lovingly cared for by its full-time resident owners, this home has undergone a thoughtful list of improvements, inside and out. Unlike many vacation rentals, this property has been updated with quality, durability, and long-term ownership in mind, including significant upgrades that go well beyond cosmetic improvements. The interior and exterior have been beautifully repainted, creating a fresh, inviting look throughout. Inside, you'll appreciate the smooth ceilings throughout—no dated popcorn ceilings here! From the beautiful solid oak flooring and custom-tiled bathrooms to the updated lighting, hardware, low-maintenance vinyl handrails, gutters, and FORTIFIED roof installed in 2025, nearly every detail has been carefully considered. Best of all, the home is being sold fully furnished and turnkey, making it equally appealing as a year-round residence, second home, or vacation rental investment!
The outdoor living spaces are every bit as inviting as the interior! Spend your days relaxing by the heated saltwater pool, surrounded by newly installed cool decking for comfort underfoot. The ground level also offers two convenient storage rooms, an EV charger, a basketball hoop, an outdoor shower, and a dry entry from the carport. A wonderful added luxury is the three-level elevator, professionally installed by Atlantic Elevators approximately 10 years ago, with convenient access from the carport—making unloading groceries and luggage a breeze! Inside the ground-level entrance, a welcoming foyer provides additional storage and a second refrigerator, perfectly positioned for easy access when entertaining by the pool.
The mid-level features four bedrooms and two beautifully renovated full bathrooms, showcasing custom tile showers, stylish coastal finishes, and thoughtful design touches. Throughout the home, you'll appreciate the extensive interior improvements, including updated lighting, hardware, and flooring. Beautiful solid oak floors add warmth and timeless character, while tile flooring in the bathrooms adds style and practicality.
The top level is truly the heart of the home, featuring a bright, open great room with lovely ocean views and an inviting atmosphere for gathering with family and friends. The kitchen, updated approximately 10 years ago, features custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a generous island with additional seating. The owners also added a powder room to this level and enclosed the original screened porch, creating a wonderful additional living space you can enjoy year-round. The spacious top-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a beautifully renovated private bathroom featuring a custom tile shower, grab bars, and comfort-height fixtures. With elevator access to all three levels, everyday living is exceptionally convenient.
And then there's the location! Seabreeze Drive is a quiet, charming street lined with lovely homes, tucked away in one of Duck's most desirable oceanside settings. With the Atlantic Ocean just six lots away and the restaurants, boutiques, waterfront boardwalk, and village attractions of downtown Duck within easy walking or biking distance, you truly have the best of both worlds. Enjoy the beauty and tranquility of your private coastal retreat
