Property Description

This beautifully updated coastal home in the sought-after Whalehead neighborhood of Corolla offers 7 bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms, and approximately 3,221 sqft of well-designed living space. Set on a spacious lot with a private pool and hot tub, it works equally well as a second home at the beach, an investment property, or a comfortable primary residence.

Inside, the home features a highly functional reverse floor plan ideal for hosting guests. The top level includes a beautifully updated, well-appointed kitchen, an open-concept living and dining area, a spacious primary ensuite with a private full bath, and access to an expansive sun deck from both the family room and the bedroom.

The ground level includes a pyramid bunk room (full bed on bottom, twin on top), a guest room, and a game room complete with a pool table and a well-appointed wet bar featuring a sink, mini fridge, and quartz countertop. This level provides direct access to the private pool area. Recent improvements in 2025 include a new downstairs bathroom vanity, an upgraded wet bar, and updated quilts and bedding. In 2023, two new water heaters were installed. In 2022, the owners completed a full kitchen remodel with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and appliances, and added a concrete hang-out area under the house that provides generous shaded outdoor space. The exterior was painted in 2021, new LVP flooring was installed throughout, and the hot tub was added. Major 2020 updates include a new roof, two new AC units, fresh interior paint, and new lighting in the living areas. Outdoor amenities further enhance the property with a private pool, hot tub, basketball goal, volleyball area, and swingset- providing recreation options that appeal to guests of all ages. With its prime Whalehead location, multi-ensuite layout, inviting gathering spaces, and steady list of meaningful improvements, this home delivers the coastal lifestyle buyers seek in Corolla. It is move-in ready and positioned to perform well as a rental while offering the comfort and ease of an established beach retreat.
