Overview
A vacation unlike any other awaits you at Open Ocean, a 27-bedroom estate located on an acre of prime oceanfront land in Kill Devil Hills. Event- and reunion-ready, this home is one of the largest in Kill Devil Hills in terms of bedroom size, and includes almost 15,000 square feet of indoor living space. Open Ocean is professionally decorated by the popular interior design firm Urban Cottage, known for their upscale design, and contemporary yet warm approach to beach house decor.
You will truly not find another home like this on the Outer Banks. The wide lot size means that 10 of the 27 bedrooms are oceanside, and the pool is elevated next to the dune line to expose sweeping panoramic views over the ocean and has an 8' x 14' built-in hot tub and a large adjacent kiddie pool. Indoors, the amenity list is extensive, and includes a rec room, a sports bar, a theater, an exercise room, an oceanview great room, a gourmet kitchen, an elevator, three laundry rooms, 27 bedrooms (all with private baths), and impressive custom finishes throughout.
With a stunning location right on the water, a host of popular amenities, and plenty of space for large groups or multi-family vacations, you are sure to make memories that will last a lifetime at this one-of-a-kind Outer Banks home.
