Welcome to your ‘Scrimshaw’ your dream getaway in the heart of the Whalehead in Corolla—a luxurious 9-bedroom, 6,054 sq. ft. coastal home designed for unforgettable vacations with family and friends. This stunning ocean-view estate offers the perfect blend of upscale comfort, entertainment, and relaxation, all just a little over 1 block from the beach.

Step inside and be greeted by beautifully curated furnishings and spacious interiors that invite you to unwind. With seven king ensuite bedrooms, one queen ensuite bedroom with a wheelchair-accessible shower, an ensuite bedroom with two pyramid bunk beds, and an extra room with one pyramid bunk, everyone will find their perfect place to rest. The top floor boasts a sun-drenched open-concept living area with a gourmet kitchen, a dining table that seats 16, and a stylish great room with leather couches, a gas fireplace, and a 50” flat-screen TV. Step out onto the wraparound deck to enjoy ocean breezes from multiple seating areas.

Entertainment abounds throughout the home. The expansive ground-level rec room is a haven for fun, featuring a tournament-size billiards table, ping pong, air hockey, foosball, a poker table, and a closet full of sports gear. A wet bar, kitchenette, large screen TV, and half bath make it easy to spend hours here. Movie nights are a treat in the theater room with leather recliners and a 70” TV with surround sound.

Outdoors, the private pool area is a true oasis. Lounge on one of 11 chaise lounges, soak in the poolside hot tub, or gather under the shaded tiki bar cabana, complete with a full kitchen, fridge, bar stools, picnic table, and an outdoor bathroom. Two outdoor showers, a gas grill, a charcoal grill, and a beach gear closet ensure every need is met. Sports lovers will enjoy the volleyball court, basketball hoop, soccer goal, and hockey net, all surrounded by a lush, sprinkler-maintained lawn.

With two laundry areas, multiple wet bars, and thoughtful touches throughout, this home is designed for effortless luxury and endless fun. Whether you're hosting a family reunion, celebrating a special occasion, or simply escaping to the coast, this Outer Banks gem promises a vacation to remember.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. Plenty of space for the adults and children to enjoy. Village Realty ensured our stay was pleasant and welcoming. The only issue we had was a clogged toilet and that was fixed the same day, Thanksgiving day to be exact. Everyone was impressed how the kitchen drawers were labeled so you didn’t have to search for kitchen utensils. This place easily gets 5 stars. My family and I are looking to come back to this home in the near future. Thanks again Village Realty, you all did an amazing job.

The home was exactly what I expected (the photos did not lie) so much room that 21 of us never felt like we were on top of each other. Close to the beach and shops. I will definitely return to the OBX for another visit ??

This house has everything going for it starting with the short walk to the beach. Thanks to the private pool there is immediate relief for those who have enjoyed enough sun. The amenities offer good times to every age group with the theatre room being a major draw. Whatever you need to prepare a good meal is available in the well appointed kitchen. The master suites with bathrooms cannot be beat. My family will return next summer for our third year In vacation paradise.

This house had it ALL! Perfect house for our three families and the grandparents. The elevator was wonderful for groceries and older adults who wanted to give their knees a rest climbing stairs! Plenty of room and we all took home wonderful memories!

We had three generations of family gather for vacation at the home, and appreciated the variety of spaces and activities which allowed us the opportunity to gather as a large group for meals, but also to spend plenty of time in small groups throughout our stay. The kitchen is particularly well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, and many appliances for meal preparation.
