57105 Lighthouse Road, Hatteras, NC 27943

A rare, sweet oceanfront home reminiscent of old Hatteras, but with updates. This "beach box" as it is known here, is situated right behind the dunes and the ocean. Its manageable size, prime location, and reasonable fees make it a popular oceanfront dream rental property.

From the expansive deck, see the sunrise, the evening constellations, and dramatic far- away lightning at times. A laundry and storage room for beach equipment adds to easy living, as does the wonderful outdoor shower and fish table. (You may enjoy catching them from the surf, just a few steps away.) This cottage is a golf cart ride away from the Hatteras Ferry, the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum, the marinas, and the excellent restaurants and diverse stores of Hatteras Village.
