Description
ALOHA HATTERAS fronts Askins Creek, overlooks Pamlico Sound, is a 5 minute walk to the beach and 5 min drive to Avon Pier. It is also 3min drive to the island’s best grocery shopping…key to keeping the chef happy! The kitchen-greatroom layout with views and a cathedral ceiling is the perfect beach house configuration.Unrestricted, panoramic views of/over water include fish jumping, birds feeding, colorful Pamlico Sound windsurfers/kiteboarders silently drifting by in the distance, and fantastic sunsets–are all narrated to the sound of nature.Come enjoy this fabulous view and it’s relative isolation (…not sitting on your deck staring at your neighbor like a lot of the ‘competition’…even a lot of the ‘oceanfront’ cottages only have a view of the back of dunes…). Alohas Hatteras is perfectly situated: the beach is a 5-7 minute walk away, the shared pool a short drive away, and the incredible sunset views of Askin’s Creek/Pamlico Sound from the decks and great room.Experience an intimate relationship with the beauty and magic of Hatteras Island, the gem of the outerbanks.Aloha is Hawaiian for welcome, farewell and love. The owners, whose children grew up in the Hawaiian Islands when stationed there with the military, want you to fall in love with Hatteras Island/the ‘other islands’ of the outer banks. ALOHA HATTERAS is your passport and its deck is truly one of those “close your eyes and think of a favorite, peaceful place” kind of settings The vista is dynamic with no neighbors in your field of view enjoy: the Great Egret or Blue Herons feed to the sound of song bird music and fish jumping in the morning, striking sunsets over Pamlico sound in the evening, and undiminished stars from the deck’s 6 person hot tub at night. Forget your car and walk to the beach for that early morning stroll, the midday sun, the evening tides. Windsurfers, kite boarders, and families with small children will love the privacy of the readily available, protected, shallow sandy beaches of Pamlico Sound.. Fishermen also have access to Hatteras Island’s only fishing pier; (they also rent equipment).Bedrooms on the lower floor with 2 baths: 2 of the bedrooms have fantastic views of unrestricted panoramic views of Askin’s Creek and Pamlico Sound. (We do not provide linens and towels. However, you can rent them nearby.)Kitchen: well equipped with pots/pans, dishes, glasses, cups, knives/cutting boards, mixer, coffee maker, microwave, toaster, and many more.The ground level has ample concrete parking, outside shower, charcoal grill, and carport for rainy days.The 1st floor has four bedrooms and two baths with shaded deck and fantastic views off two bedrooms.Living room: ALOHA HATTERAS’ large upper level great room with tall cathedral ceilings has unrestricted panoramic views of Askin’s Creek and Pamlico Sound, lots of glass, screened in porch–‘postcard’ views of Hatteras Island’s quiet side.SPECIAL NOTES*the 30+ yr old home was recently ‘updated’ but retains many original features that the photos seek to accurately display.*Best grocery shopping on the island is 3min away; key for cooking in [we have found that even the best planned dinner involves at least two trips to the Food Lion…big difference between being around the corner vs 25min away in Hatteras, Rodanthe/Salvo]*also a Dollar Tree 3min away for inexpensive sundries*Aloha Hatteras is MANAGED by the OWNERs.*Sorry – but No Smoking*Although SOME have launched a kayak into Askins Creek from the property; MANY have found the shore too soft and muddy to do so.The Outer Banks and the National Seashore offer a fascinating combination of natural and cultural resources, and provide a wide variety of recreational opportunities:* The uncrowded, pristine beach (voted best on the coast) is perfect for families.* Want to explore? Take the free ferry from Hatteras Village to Ocracoke Island, home of the infamous pirate, Blackbeard; also a small arts community*Visit the Wright Brothers Memorial and Museum and the Dunes at Jockey’s Ridge State Park (50 miles north).* Fisherman can choose surfcasting, inlet fishing, ocean fishing at Avon Pier, sound fishing (think giant salt water lake), or sport fishing offshore for flounder, drum, blues, mackerel, tuna, and more; although Askins Creek looks inviting, its fishing is not.* Discover multiple intimate restaurants with the Outer Banks own brand of beach hospitality rarely seen in vacation destinations. Fresh seafood; Avon, alone, has two shops (check out Surf’s up)* Surfers can take advantage of the location central to the Outer Banks hottest surf spots including Hatteras Light House, S-Turns, and Frisco Pier.* Windsurfers, Kiteboarders, and Kayakers can access the warm, shallow waters of Pamlico Sound.
