Overview

Sun Catcher captures all that the Outer Banks has to offer in a beautiful oceanfront Whalehead estate. Every thoughtful detail--the oceanfront pool and hot tub, the game room with kitchenette, a private bath for each bedroom--all reflect the owner's thorough planning and careful anticipation of your vacation needs. A well stocked kitchen includes a refrigerator, two cooktops, two ovens, two dishwashers, and a butler's pantry, offering ample space to prepare a vacation meal. Awake to the ocean sunrise with fabulous oceanfront views. Sit under the vaulted ceilings and look out the Palladian windows of the great room, dining rooms or loft, or enjoy a drink on the screened in porch or expansive decks around the house. Fill your days with fun at the beach with direct ocean access from your own dune deck, or relax on the sun deck overlooking your private pool and hot tub. After sunset, Sun Catcher continues to glow with music, a game room and big screen televisions and surround sound stereos. Take a short walk to nearby dining and shops of Timbuck II or a cool stroll on a moonlit beach. The pleasure and enjoyment are unlimited at Sun Catcher. Book early, you'll be back every year!

Established in 1948 by Walter and Stelle Gray, Gray’s began as a single store on the beach road in Nags Head, a land mark that has been beautifully transformed into Seagreen Art Gallery. Visitors to the original Gray’s may remember that the family home was located above the store and that Walter Gray had a passion for Big Band music that was often playing on the store speakers, giving shoppers a little swing in their step.

 

Modern-day Gray’s is still family owned and operated by their children Ronnie and Julie Gray, who carry on a legacy of superior customer service and traditional values. Ronnie’s wife Susan is also an important part of the business. “It really was always a family operating as a business rather than a business being run by a family,” explains Ronnie Gray. “When our visitors come in, they are greeted by a warm hello and a ‘Welcome to Gray’s.’ We try to welcome them as if they’re entering our own home”
