Absolutely stunning views from this adorable coastal cottage, perched high atop a hill in Duck! "Lofty View" is the ideal location within minutes of Duck Village and right across the street from the beautiful Duck beach. The ocean views will take your breath away! You can lounge in the sun on the open decks or out by the large pool in the backyard (new pool heater in May 2020). Comfortable reverse floor plan layout so you can enjoy the sweeping views from the spacious top floor living area with a gas fireplace and plenty of seating, which flows into the kitchen and dining, perfect for gathering everyone together. Bar top seating at the granite counter tops, and a screened porch off the dining area, ideal for dining al fresco and taking in the ocean views and cool breezes. There's even a cozy ship's watch with lounge chairs, perfect for reading and enjoying your morning coffee while watching the sunrise over the ocean! There is a king bedroom located on the top floor with a whirlpool tub and shared half bath to the living area. Three other spacious bedrooms are located on the mid level, along with two other full bathrooms and laundry. Take a dip in the hot tub on a cool fall evening, bike or walk into Duck Village on the multi use path for dining and shopping.
