Property Description

Currently the lowest-priced home in Whalehead, this 1,905-square-foot beach cottage offers two levels of heated living space with four bedrooms, two full baths, and a uniquely elevated mid-level private pool and hot tub. The mid-level serves as the heart of the home, with a bright, airy open floor plan featuring a cathedral ceiling accented in natural juniper, skylights, and large bay windows with built-in seating. An open loft overlooking the living area adds to the sense of space. In the family room, a shiplap surround frames the fireplace (not operational), with a modest wet bar nearby. The kitchen offers ample quartz counter space, stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar seating, and a pantry with a new full-size stainless steel stacked washer and dryer. The adjacent dining area opens directly to a screened porch for al fresco dining, which flows naturally to the sundeck and the elevated private pool and hot tub. Wraparound decking extends the outdoor living space, with both covered and open areas for sun or shade. Two bedrooms are located on the mid-level. The larger bedroom has access to a covered deck and the semi-private hall bathroom. This updated bath features a glass walk-in shower with rain showerhead, custom tile, and penny tile flooring. A decorative stained-glass window provides a distinctive accent. Both bedrooms feature wainscoting and chair rail. Upstairs, a gallery-style loft overlooks the living area below, taking full advantage of the soaring juniper ceiling and extending the home’s open, airy feel. The loft offers flexible space for a second sitting area, reading nook, or game area. Two generously sized bedrooms are located on this level. The larger bedroom has access to a private sundeck overlooking the backyard and the semi-private hall bath. This updated bath features a double-sink vanity, herringbone tile flooring, matching tile surrounding the large jetted tub, and a skylight above. The second bedroom has access to a small private deck, and both bedrooms feature wainscoting. The ground-level carport area, with a large utility/storage room and outdoor shower, offers a shaded, open space with potential for casual use. Keeping the pool and hot tub above this level provides an open backyard. Bright, open interiors with a natural juniper-accented cathedral ceiling, updated bathrooms, and the uniquely elevated mid-level pool and hot tub give this cottage plenty of character, while a new HVAC system and X flood zone add practical value. The beach is only blocks away, with Corolla’s shopping and dining, Historic Corolla Village, and the Currituck Beach Lighthouse nearby. Whether as a year-round home, vacation getaway, or rental property, this inviting Whalehead cottage offers an appealing combination of character, convenience, and easy coastal living.
