Lucky are the few who will get to stay in beautiful sound front, Second Star to the Right. This home has enticed visitors and neighbors for years with its perfect waterfront cul de sac location. It was, however, always an exclusive private home - a Neverland to renters - until now. The ground level has an outdoor shower, fish station, boat dock with seating, hammock, and a rare private boat ramp. Kayak, stand up surf, windsurf, or fish off your private dock. The large first living level opens into a panorama of windows that catch some of the island's best sunsets. Comfortable resort furniture offers the perfect perch to view the entertainment center with a large flatscreen TV/DVD and listen to the stereo. A large modern kitchen with a huge granite breakfast bar and stainless appliances will bring out the best in all recipes and their cooks. An extra-large waterfront dining area has postcard views. Second Star to the Right has a landing-field-size furnished sundeck. The first-floor bedroom has waterfront deck access, and the neighboring full bathroom boasts a large soaking tub and a premium shower stall.

The large second-level great room with tall ceilings has a wet bar, comfy resort furniture, Romeo sundeck, flatscreen TV/DVD, and an extraordinary view of the water, wetlands, and sunsets. Both upstairs bedrooms have water views. The kids won't take long to find the upstairs furnished loft area - accessible by a built-in ladder. A large hall bathroom with a tub and separate shower is convenient for all. Second Star to the Right also has a full laundry room on this level.

Lost boys, girls, and adults will find the vacation home they have always dreamed of at sound front Second Star to the Right.

Amazing house with paradise views
Perfectly central outer banks paradise with the best sunset view in NC. Access to the Pamlico sound with the dock, boat ramp, and 2 free kayaks was very cool. 10 minute walk to the beach, 30 minute drive to Ocracoke Ferry, can’t beat the location. We wished it was a little cleaner upon arrival but all-in-all our dreams were fulfilled.

Location was great
Location was great since right on the water. Carpet, furniture and bathroom showers could use an upgrade. Both showers leaked.

Thanksgiving
House was spacious with an amazing porch for sunset views. I communicated with Vacasa 2 different ways to let them know the upstairs shower door was broken, additionally, there was no coffee pot, despite one in the pics of the kitchen, also one of the pocket doors on the upstairs bedroom was broken and would not close. I never heard back from Vacasa on these issues. We bought a coffee pot and left it at the house. Also, very limited kitchen towels and no wine opener.

Beautiful Place to Visit
We visited outside of the "busy season". That said, the house is nice and clean - and having waterfront was awesome! We tried fishing and crabbing from the dock with very little luck (1-crab). If I went back during warmer weather, I would either take or rent a boat (to take advantage of the opportunities this property has to offer). It's close enough to everything that the drive is not bad. It's far enough away that you will never feel "overrun". Very nice...

Overall the house was very good. It was clean and was in a great location. If you fish you can fish right off the back deck. The only bad is that the dishwasher stunk like stagnant water but we ran it and it cleared out ... will be checking into staying there again next year.
