Soundfront Dog Friendly w/ Hot Tub, Elevator, Private Sound Access, Media Room

SOUNDFRONT Buxton — NC Hwy 12 — Feel free as a bird when you settle into THE ROOST, a five-bedroom/five- and one-half-bath home with nothing between it and a private sound beach except a lush, forested ridge. While the thicket of trees provides loads of privacy, the shallow waters of the sound offer an abundance of possibilities, a welcome retreat for paddleboarders, wind and kite surfers, and families with kids, alike.

Upon arrival, release the dogs (two are welcome) to sniff things out in the fenced-in yard while you make use of the convenient elevator to move groceries and luggage to the second level. The ground-level, fish cleaning station with lights and water will be a welcome sight for those who plan to fish. Those looking for a more languid pace will find it in the screened-in tiki bar area with seating, a TV, and a dart board to keep things interesting. You’ll find a private path to the water’s edge and an outdoor shower and foot wash station to keep things tidy when you return. Stairs leading to the first level reveal a 7-person hot tub to soak in the serenity.

Two ensuite master king bedrooms and a bedroom with a full and twin bed with access to a hallway bathroom also occupy the first level. These rooms enjoy close access to a media room featuring a 75” Smart 4K TV, puzzles and games, and a minifridge, stand-alone ice machine, and microwave to keep snacks and drinks at the ready.

The final two bedrooms, both ensuite master kings, are located on the second level and offer private upper deck access to catch the sensational sound sunsets. They also offer instant access to the home’s great room, an open communal space that brings everyone together for precious family time. There’s a lovely living area with comfortable seating providing perfect sight lines to the 75” Smart TV. The spacious and well-equipped kitchen encourages a group cooking effort to bring your vacation meals to the table, a long eight-seat one, with three more at the breakfast bar. Enjoy dining outside on the deck as well, where a six-seat table allows you to enjoy the feast in front of you, including the one for your eyes as you gaze out onto the sound. As you do, watch the marsh birds come home to roost and be glad you booked THE ROOST so that you’ll have this memory forever.

New for 2024: New great room furniture. New kitchen refrigerator. New under-house tiki bar area with TV and new seating. New Built-to-Last deck chairs on the upper deck.
