SEMI-OCEANFRONT Avon — Wahoo Cir. — With their striking black and white plumage, upturned bills and long legs, the avocet shorebird finds its habitat along the Hatteras coast quite hospitable. So, too, will guests of AVOCET, a four-bedroom/two- and one-half-bath home situated just one block off the ocean yet with unobstructed views that go on forever.

The home’s location at the end of a cul-de-sac provides a quiet and uncrowded setting for your island getaway. The boardwalk to the beach is right across the street and two outdoor showers make freshening up after a day in the sun a breeze. As for those breezes, you’ll love the way they drift across the open decks and into the home’s bedrooms as you drift off to sleep at night. Three of those bedrooms are located on the second level: two queen bedrooms, each with direct access to a deck, one featuring a TV, and a pyramid bunk room featuring private access to the hallway bathroom shared by all three bedrooms. The fourth bedroom, a king, is located on the third level and features a TV, a newly renovated bathroom and access to a private deck. A lower-level den featuring a futon, TV and a newly renovated half-bath provides additional sleeping options.

The bright and airy third level great room brings the colors of the beach inside for a delightfully soothing ambiance. Find yourself sipping your coffee at the newly renovated kitchen’s wrap-around counter or outside on the deck to catch the sun rising over the horizon. There’s a six-seat dining room table to enjoy family dinners and a picnic table on the deck for alfresco meals, fire up the gas grill when a craving strikes. Plentiful and comfortable seating in the great room inspires lazy evenings in front of the 55-inch TV while the four-person hot tub just might have the edge in how you wind down your day. Like birds of a feather that flock together, gather your family at AVOCET by booking today.
