About this Property
Overview
Plan your next Outer Banks escape to Sir Walter Raleigh, an eight bedroom Nags Head estate by the sea. This spacious retreat is part of the Nags Head Shores community. Thoughtfully designed to comfortably accommodate large groups, this home features professional decor, extensive indoor and outdoor amenities, and an unbeatable location. A private beach walkway with dune top deck leads you directly from the private pool area to the ocean's edge, so you're just steps from the Atlantic during your stay. Water views can be enjoyed from both the mid and top level decks, creating lasting memories throughout your stay. Inside, a rec room and adjacent home theater provide evening or rainy day entertainment.
Located in the northern stretch of Nags Head, guests of Sir Walter Raleigh will enjoy quick access to grocery stores, fine and casual dining options, fishing piers, historical sites, and other local attractions and entertainment. Check out the Nags Head Pier bar and restaurant to enjoy a drink right on the ocean (best views in town!), grab a bite at Tortugas Lie or Red Drum Tap house, or take the family to the Nags Head Adventure Park for a day at the ropes course! Jockey's Ridge - the largest sand dune on the East Coast - is just minutes away: climb to the top to enjoy an amazing vantage point for sunsets.
