Description

Discover a rare opportunity to own a private retreat in the heart of Nags Head. Backing directly to the protected Nags Head Woods Preserve, 2824 S Lost Colony Drive offers exceptional privacy with direct access to nature trails leading toward the Sound. Lovingly maintained by its original owners since 1994 and never rented, this property has been used exclusively as a cherished family second home. The upper level features a bright, open-concept great room with vaulted ceilings, a spacious kitchen with abundant cabinetry and breakfast bar, dining area, and of course flow out to expansive outdoor living areas. Large sun decks and a spacious screened porch provide the perfect setting for outdoor dining, morning coffee, afternoon breezes, and peaceful views of the surrounding maritime forest. Three bedrooms are located on this level, including a private ensuite, plus a shared hall bath. One of the home's most unique features is its versatile lower level, complete with three additional flex space rooms, a large full bath with laundry, a spacious recreation room, and a full second kitchen! Whether you're seeking a multigenerational living arrangement, space for extended family or additional flexibility for your lifestyle, the dual-kitchen layout offers countless possibilities. The game room is ready for serious entertaining (Cousin Eddie and the kids may never leave ...) with a pool table, arcade game, pinball machine, darts, popcorn cart, and additional refrigerator. Outside, the property feels even larger thanks to the paper street buffer to the south and the protected preserve directly behind the home, creating a private wooded setting rarely found this close to everything Nags Head has to offer. Multiple covered and open deck spaces extend the living area outdoors, while the generous area beneath the home provides ample room for storage, entertaining, or the future addition of a hot tub. Recent improvements include a roof (2022), upper HVAC (2022), lower HVAC (2023), decking (2022), septic drainfield (2024), and water heater (2024). Located in one of the most desirable areas of Nags Head, you'll enjoy easy access to Nags Head Woods Preserve, Jockey's Ridge State Park, Dowdy Park, the YMCA, Bonnett Street beach access, local restaurants, shopping, fishing, and watersports. Enjoy the best of the Outer Banks lifestyle with beaches, sound side sunsets, nature trails, and local attractions all just minutes from your doorstep. Offering a rare combination of privacy, versatility, outdoor living, and location, 2824 S Lost Colony Drive is a unique Outer Banks property that must be seen to be appreciated.
