Welcome to a canal-front coastal retreat tucked inside the gated boating community of Colington Harbour, where waterfront living and thoughtful updates come together beautifully. This 3-bedroom, 3-bath home with a bonus room and loft offers an open-concept design filled with natural light, vaulted ceilings, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a gas fireplace anchoring the great room. The loft overlooks the main living space, adding architectural character and flexible space for guests or a home office. The chef’s kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and generous prep space ideal for entertaining. The spacious primary suite on the main level includes a large soaking tub. Another bedroom and bathroom are included on the main level. The upstairs second primary suite offers a beautifully tiled walk-in shower with glass enclosure for a spa-like experience. There is another room that could be used as additional office space or living space. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a sun deck and screened-in porch overlooking the canal. There is an additional ground-level cooler screened room designed for relaxing after a day on the water. Positioned on a wide, deep canal with a natural spring, the property offers stunning sunset views and direct boating access to the Albemarle Sound. A 2010 addition expanded the living space, and that same year a new roof was installed. The kitchen was updated in 2019 with new waterproof flooring, cabinets and countertops. Additional features include an on-demand hot water heater, dual-zone HVAC, irrigation system, main-level laundry, and a well maintained interior and exterior. Previously operated as a successful Airbnb, the home generated strong income and consistently earned five-star reviews, offering excellent potential for both personal enjoyment and investment. Home was previously used as a short term rental in 2025 through an AirBnb host, and had consistent 5* reviews. Village Realty has a projection of 28-38k for 2026. Colington Harbour is a waterfront community thoughtfully designed for boaters, with a network of canals surrounding several peninsulas, including Big Colington Island, that lead directly to the Albemarle Sound. The neighborhood features a private community boat ramp, making launching and retrieving your vessel convenient and seamless, along with easy canal and sound access for kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, and sunset cruises. Located approximately 10 miles from the Intracoastal Waterway, it also provides ideal positioning for larger boating adventures. Optional membership to the Colington Harbour Yacht & Racquet Club offers two outdoor pools, tennis courts, and a soundfront clubhouse with sweeping island views and event space for gatherings and celebrations. Nearby, the Colington Harbour Soundfront Park provides wide sandy beaches along the maritime forest, shaded picnic areas beneath live oaks, bulkheaded crabbing and fishing spots with a fish cleaning station, and a protected swimming area with gently sloping waters perfect for families. While the community maintains a peaceful, small-town coastal atmosphere, residents still enjoy convenient dining options and easy access to the broader amenities of Kill Devil Hills and the Outer Banks.
