DRIFTWOOD DREAM - Vacation rental home in Southern Shores, NC

Delight in this private resort-style entertainment level which offers fun for vacationers of all ages and interests. Enjoy the covered poolside cabana with an outdoor pool table, seating area with Smart HDTV with cable and internet streaming, dining area, separate children's play area, two outdoor showers, and easy access to the powder room on the landing between the ground and first levels.

Venture from the cabana to the adjoining professionally-landscaped, privacy-fenced area surrounding the 30x14 saltwater pool and eight-person hot tub encircled with decking to accommodate sun worshippers and shade lovers alike. Practice putting, or play bocce ball and cornhole in the games area while enjoying refreshments from the outdoor bar area with built-in gas grill.

Parking for eleven vehicles via the covered carport and driveway facilitates easy loading & unloading into the home's ground floor entrance, with elevator access to all three levels of the home.

Savor gentle ocean breezes, watch pelicans and seagulls glide above the waves, or take in the poolside action below from this level's full expanse of ocean-facing covered deck with seating.

Enter the welcoming main foyer and escape to the media room with cozy seating to read or enjoy the Smart HDTV with cable and internet streaming. Play classic card and board games, or build puzzles on the room's game table, all while enjoying refreshments stocked in the wet bar with sink and refrigerator/freezer with icemaker.

Rest and refresh in one of the five uniquely-decorated suites on this level. Choose from one of four oceanfacing king suites, each of which includes a private bath and a Smart HDTV with cable and internet streaming. Three of the king bedrooms offer direct deck access and the fourth has an oceanfacing window seat nook. In addition, one of the king suites provides amenities to support special access needs, to include no-lip plank flooring from common areas into the suite, roll-in shower with seat and hand bars, open-bottom roll-up sink, large doorways, and an open closet.

The fifth suite on this level includes a custom built-in double bunk, plus a twin bunk with a Smart HDTV with internet streaming, and a generous private bath.

A full laundry room with shelving and hanging space is located on this floor, along with easy access to the home's elevator and two powder rooms which are situated on the stair landings between each level.

Gather on the expansive oceanfacing deck anytime of the day - in the morning for coffee and sunrises, the day for ocean viewing and some sunshine, at dusk for evening cocktails, and late into the night for star gazing. Spanning the front of the house, a portion of the deck is covered for shaded comfort, with the remainder open to the skies above.

Enjoy wide ocean views from the great room, dining room, and kitchen which collectively offer an invitingly spacious entertainment, gathering, and dining area accentuated by airy vaulted ceilings and eclectic, sea-inspired professional decor. The great room includes a large seating area from which to enjoy the Smart HDTV with cable and internet streaming.

The main dining area seats fourteen around an expansive group table, with nearby seating for four at a nook table, and six at the massive kitchen island which doubles as a serving buffet.

The immense, well-equipped kitchen is designed with high-end finishes and stainless steel appliances, including two dishwashers, a Keurig, a separate professional series refrigerator and freezer with icemaker, and a functional layout which accommodates both chefs and nibblers when preparing feasts grand or casual. Adjacent to the dining and kitchen areas is a large screened-in porch with two picnic tables and benches perfect for seafood feasting and picnic fun. Easy access is provided to the elevator on this level, as well as to the powder room on the stair landing.

Retreat to the privacy afforded by the two suites also on this level. The king bedroom is a luxurious oceanfacing suite with a window seat niche and Smart HDTV with cable and internet streaming, a separate sitting area, exquisite private bath, and direct deck access. The other suite on this level offers a double bunk and a twin bunk, a Smart HDTV with internet streaming, and a spacious private bath.
