Nestled among the windswept live oaks and soft dunes of Swan Beach, this quaint, never-rented home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the serenity of Corolla’s exclusive 4x4 beaches—where the wild horses still roam freely and nature surrounds you at every turn. Set on an oversized 20,000+ square foot lot, the home offers privacy, tranquility, and an ideal layout for a relaxed beachside lifestyle. Designed with the coastal environment in mind, it features low-maintenance vinyl siding, a durable metal roof, and roll-down hurricane shutters to keep the elements at bay. The ground level welcomes you with a paved carport, a spacious paver patio with a fire pit, and a convenient outdoor shower—perfect for rinsing off after a day on the sand. There's also a screened-in patio for enjoying coastal breezes without the bugs, as well as a utility room, laundry area, a second refrigerator, and a half bath. A dry entry leads directly into the home, offering easy access no matter the weather. Upstairs, the main living area impresses with vaulted ceilings and an open-concept layout that creates a warm and airy gathering space. The great room features a cozy gas fireplace and flows seamlessly into the dining area and beautifully remodeled kitchen, complete with butcher block countertops, a stone tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a generous walk-in pantry. Down the hall, you'll find three comfortable bedrooms, including a private en suite, as well as updated bathrooms that reflect a modern, beachy aesthetic. Step out onto the spacious deck and follow the stairs to the rooftop deck, where sweeping ocean views and the ever-changing sky provide the perfect backdrop for both sunrise coffees and sunset cocktails. Adding to the home’s appeal is a detached, heated and cooled two-car garage—ideal for storing side-by-sides, jeeps, beach gear, or fishing equipment. There’s also ample space to add a pool, should you desire to create your own private oasis. For those seeking even more privacy or potential for expansion, the adjacent southern lot is also available for purchase separately. Whether you're dreaming of a personal retreat or a future investment, this inviting coastal home offers the perfect blend of character, comfort, and connection to the untamed beauty of the Outer Banks.
