A Relaxing Cottage With Access To Great Amenities
If you're ready for a private getaway filled with fun and relaxation in the beautiful Outer Banks, book your next vacation at Wish You Were Here! This gorgeous Duck cottage is set back from the street and surrounded by trees making it feel like a treehouse—all while offering plenty of space for the whole family and welcoming your four-legged best friend! Visitors love the easy access to both the town of Duck and the awesome community amenities of Schooner Ridge. Plus, Wish You Were Here sits just 0.5 miles from the private beach access and oceanfront pool!
This home is designed for convenience. There is space for two vehicles beneath the home to make loading and unloading easy even when the weather is rainy. You'll also find an outdoor shower and dry entry on the ground level.
On the main floor, choose between one of three cozy bedrooms each outfitted with comfortable beds, a TV for entertainment and blackout curtains for optimal sleep. The King Bedroom has access to a covered deck and features an attached full-sized bathroom with glass and ceramic tile, a luxurious soaking tub and a custom vanity with marble top. A second room has 1 Queen Bed and 1 Twin Bed along with access to the covered deck and shares a Full Bathroom featuring ceramic tile and new décor throughout with a third room featuring another Queen Bed with 1 Twin Bed. A laundry room with washer, dryer, and full-sized refrigerator complete the level. As a bonus, the first-floor closet is stocked with beach items for your use including chairs, boogie boards, skimboards, beach toys and a wagon! Outside, you'll stay cool on the covered deck as you lounge in the hammock for ultimate relaxation.
Upstairs, the spacious, open living area features brand-new comfortable furnishings, coastal décor, high ceilings, 8-foot ceiling fan, and plenty of natural light coming in through the large windows. Your family will love the cozy wrap-around couch and the 55" Smart TV with state-of-the-art Klipsch Sound System and Retro Nintendo Gaming System that comes preloaded with fun games! The dining room table has seating for 10 and a large kitchen features a new tiled backsplash, quartz countertops, all new stainless steel appliances, refrigerator with ice maker & filtered water, and an island bar with additional seating making it easier to prepare and enjoy your meals at home. Rest easy in a large master bedroom with a King bed and separate Twin bed—perfect for a family with a young child! The attached full bath features a custom vanity, ceramic tile and frameless glass shower. In the morning, step out onto the sun deck to sip your coffee as the sun rises. By evening, you'll love taking a dip in the bubbly Hot Tub to unwind after a fun day on the beach.
Centrally Located in the Heart of Duck
Guests who book Wish You Were Here will enjoy the privacy of a quiet neighborhood while still being within walking distance of Schooner Ridge Community Amenities and the center of Duck Village. You'll be just minutes away from great local shops at the Scarborough Faire Shopping Village and The Waterfront Shops. For dinner, walk over to one of several great restaurants serving up fresh, locally sourced seafood. Just a couple blocks away, The Roadside Bar & Grille and Coastal Cravings Tap Shack feature casual outdoor dining areas where the kids can play while the adults listen to live music while enjoying a cold drink. You'll also love being across the street from Duck Town Park and the Duck Boardwalk where you'll enjoy Concerts on the Green, holiday festivities and a beautiful walking trail with sunsets over the sound! Whether you're relaxing at your rental or exploring everything Duck has to offer, you'll want to book Wish You Were Here year after year!
