Live Island Life in the Lap of Luxury If you're looking for a luxurious Outer Banks vacation home where you can relax and unwind with spectacular sunrises, a wealth of amenities, and panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean right outside your front door? Then look no further than The Salted Rim Retreat. This 9-Bedroom, 9-Full Bathroom, 2-Half Bathroom home located in Ocean Sands Section O is the perfect retreat for your family to enjoy unbeatable views of the pristine seashore. With several enormous oceanfront decks that span the east-facing side of this gorgeous Outer Banks estate, you won't have to venture far to find the perfect spot to kick back in a comfortable Adirondack chair with your favorite beach read while you soak up the salty sea breeze and let the sounds of the rolling surf lull you into a sense of total relaxation.
Challenge friends and family to a little friendly competition with a game of people in the spacious Recreation Room on the ground level and impress everyone with your mixologist skills at the Wet Bar with Refrigerator, Sink, and Microwave. When it's time to take a break from the heat of summer, watch your favorite movie on the Flat Screen in the Theater Room and enjoy time together as a family. In the evenings, make your way out onto the Screen Porch where you can bask in an ocean breeze and enjoy a delicious al fresco dining experience at the large outdoor table. You'll also find a luxurious King Master Bedroom and an additional Half Bathroom on this floor to keep everyone comfortable without going too far.
Take the elevator up to the middle level where you'll find 6 additional Master Bedrooms and the Laundry Room with Dual Washers & Dryers, so nobody will be stuck waiting for their turn to fluff up their beach towels and do a mid-week wash! Catch up on your rest in one of 5 King Master Bedrooms on this floor as well as 1 Master Bunk Room with 2 Bunk Beds to keep the kids cozy, close, and happy.
On the top floor, the immaculate views of the ocean will take your breath away. Gather together to watch a movie in the luxurious Great Room/Living Area with high ceilings and gorgeous windows that let in natural beach light and glorious views of the expansive blue ocean just a few feet away. Prepare some fresh local seafood in the Gourmet Kitchen to enjoy in the Dining Area, which has seating for 14, or at the Breakfast Bar with additional seating. Enjoy a quiet breakfast in the Breakfast Nook before heading out onto the Oceanfront Sun Deck where you can relax in an Adirondack chair and take in the unbeatable views of the pristine blue water. Relax out here in the evening with a cool drink while you bask in the glow of the moon and look for constellations in the stars. Ensuring that there is plenty of space for everyone to have ultimate comfort, you'll find that there are 2 King Master Bedrooms also on this floor.
When you're ready for some Vitamin D, the Ocean Sands Neighborhood Beach Access Walkway is less than 100 feet from your front door, so surf and sand are never far away. But don't let the outdoor fun stop there. Take a dip in your fantastic Private Swimming Pool, which can be heated for an additional fee,* or relax your muscles in the bubbly Hot Tub. Rinse off in your private Outdoor Shower before heading back inside and taking the Elevator to get some rest and start all over again! (Please note: Access to the elevator requires climbing 5-6 steps).
Beautiful Town with Plenty to Do Corolla is the perfect getaway.
