Accessibility and Structural Design
Built in 2019–2020 as a contemporary coastal home, the property features frame construction on a raised piling foundation, enhancing durability in a coastal environment. A full-home elevator ensures seamless vertical access across three levels, supporting both convenience and long-term usability.
Location and Site Advantages
Positioned in the Ocean Lakes section of Corolla, the home sits within walking distance of the beach, offering strong lifestyle and rental appeal. The elevated lot and proximity to coastal amenities enhance value, while the neighborhood supports private access and recreational infrastructure.
Outdoor Build and Recreational Infrastructure
The exterior is designed for resort-style living, including a private in-ground pool, reinforced decking areas, and fenced outdoor space for privacy. Structural planning accommodates leisure features like a hot tub and entertainment zones while maintaining durability suited for coastal weather conditions.
Interior Construction and Finishes
The interior spans over 2,800 square feet with a multi-level layout optimized for large occupancy. Construction emphasizes open-plan living, modern systems like central cooling, and high-quality finishes. The design supports both residential comfort and high-performing short-term rental use.

Design Specialty

This property presents a strong short-term rental investment opportunity, supported by its prime coastal location, walkable beach access, and high-occupancy design accommodating large groups. Features like a private pool, elevator, and multiple entertainment spaces enhance rental appeal and justify premium pricing. Its modern construction minimizes near-term capital expenditure, while consistent seasonal demand in Corolla supports stable cash flow, attractive occupancy rates, and long-term appreciation potential in a supply-constrained beachfront market.

The open-concept living area features multiple decks, abundant natural light, and comfortable seating, perfect for family gatherings. The modern kitchen boasts granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a beverage center, fully equipped to prepare meals for large groups while complementing the home’s upscale coastal design.

Bedrooms and Interior Comfort

The home offers six spacious bedrooms with upscale furnishings, including king, queen, twin, and bunk beds. Each room features a wall-mounted smart TV, ample natural light, and en-suite or nearby bathrooms, providing comfort, privacy, and a premium experience for families or large groups.

Outdoor Living and Exterior Appeal

The property’s exterior is designed for both durability and guest appeal, featuring elevated coastal construction, a private pool, hot tub, and fenced yard for privacy. Expansive decking, a tiki bar, and outdoor entertainment areas create a resort-style setting that enhances rental value and guest experience.
