Entirely refreshed in 2015 and impeccably maintained, this unique waterfront home will feel like a breath of fresh air as soon as you walk through the door. The sound is literally in your backyard and guests can use the shared pier for fishing, crabbing or launching kayaks. An open-concept layout and a wall of west-facing windows in the great room take full advantage of the unobstructed water vistas and impressive sunsets. The dining area opens up onto a soundfront sun deck that overlooks the backyard. In addition to your own private swimming pool, this thoughtfully designed outdoor getaway includes a poolside gazebo with outdoor dining set, plenty of room for calming in the sun, and convenient access to the pier.

Back inside, the centrally located kitchen is the heart of the home and includes an island with bar seating so meal prep can be a family affair and a reverse osmosis filter within the kitchen sink. Upgrades include stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and coastal-inspired mosaic backsplash. The cavernous primary bedroom is located on the top level, away from the other bedrooms and common areas. At the end of the evening, you can getaway to this private suite that offers a striking view of the sound along with access to a private covered deck. The primary bath is equally impressive, featuring dual vanities and a giant walk-in shower with charming bespoke tilework. A half a flight of stairs up from the primary you'll find a dedicated workspace in the ship's watch, where you can stay caught up with work or school remotely while appreciating the best view in the home. Four additional bedrooms (three of which include ensuite baths) will comfortably accommodate family and friends.

Located in Monteray Shores, Sunset Thrill provides guests with exclusive access to community amenities. The clubhouse includes tennis and basketball courts, a exercise center, and an outdoor pool. The Bonito Street public beach access is less than a mile from the home and offers complimentary parking.

Across the street, you'll find even more shopping and dining options at Timbuck II Shopping Village.

Strategies for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Currituck area. To book the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain discounts for nearby shops and restaurants.

Finding the best vacation rental:

• Start by selecting your vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Pool
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the host before reserving your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Is your family looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

More considerations for your visit:

• Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• Note any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an excellent source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
