What’s not to love about this spacious - just over 6,000 sf-well-built 7-bedroom, 7 bath plus two half baths oceanfront home on Buffell Head Road in Duck. It has one of the most MAGINIFICENT OCEAN VIEWS you can imagine! This house has been remodeled to 3 times its initial size and is a family home for its owners for years. The condition speaks volumes about the love they bestowed on it. Not currently in a rental program, but would easily become a top producer. The house has a TWO CAR GARAGE with lots of storage for all your beach needs. Outside showers offer both hot and cold water & are handy to the OCEANSIDE POOL. Use the south side entry door into the ground floor where the luxury vinyl tile is the perfect flooring for an area where there’s lots of traffic. On the ground level you’ll also find a queen bedroom adjacent to a tile bath with shower, the first floor laundry and the fun part….a 9-seat THEATER ROOM. The elevator on this level takes you to to the second floor where BRAZILIAN CHERRY WOOD FLOORS speak volumes about the quality and character of this special home. On this floor, you’ll find 4 primary suites, each of which is generous in size and layout. One of these four, because of it’s space, is great for kids sleeping, games and activities. The ensuite bath offers a tub shower which is great for kids . The other three bedrooms on this level have king beds and each has it's own ensuite bath. The mid-level also boasts a HUGE GAME ROOM AREA with a small kitchen size wet bar with a refrigerator w/ice maker, an additional ice maker, microwave, & dishwasher. GRANITE TOPS really are an upgrade to that area. There's a pool table, shuffle board table, and 3 tvs. There’s also a half bath handy to the game room. Outside on the covered deck that wraps the second level, there's a new 8-PERSON HOT TUB which is accesible to the 12' x 25' FIBERGLASS POOL ON THE DECK for all your guest to enjoy. One of the best things about this house is the large number of decks that wrap the house- both open and covered. By the way, the outside stairs will take you from the ground level to the top floor for easy access. Please note that the top deck and stairs to that level were replaced in December or 2023. Inside, on the top floor, there are two wonderful ensuite bedrooms, one of which has a fire place, for cozy evenings & a jetted tub plus tile shower in the ensuite bath with jetted tub and tile shower. This level is home for the 2ND LAUNDRY, butler's pantry and a half bath. The great room includes cathedral ceilings, breakfast table which can also serve as a mini-office, a large kitchen with GRANITE TOPS, gas cooktop, dishwasher, wall oven, pantry, & seating area with with focus to the ocean fiew and GAS FIREPLACE. The dining room table sits opposite so everyone has a an unobstructed ocean view. There are HURRICANE SHUTTERS and many other extras in your next year round or vacation home on the Atlantic! Finally, Carolina Dunes offers a very reasonable HOA fee, part of which offers a sound access for sunset viewing.
