SUMMER SAVINGS- Soundside Dog Friendly w/ Hot Tub, Cmty Pool & Tennis/Pickleball
SOUNDSIDE Avon — W. Sunfish Ct. — The perfect blend of idyllic Cape Cod charm and Hatteras Island coastal comfort? Yes, please! BEACH DAY RETREAT, a distinctive three-bedroom/two-bath cottage delivers on both with loads of family-friendly amenities to inspire a carefree and memorable getaway.
It’s easy to spot the pitched, red-roofed home as you pull into the quiet cul-de-sac in Avon Village. Bring your dog and favorite yard games ... a spacious, grassy lawn is ideal for both. Your kids will love the bike-friendly neighborhood, and you’ll love the gated area under the house to keep younger children, dogs, and your watersport equipment safe and secure. There’s also an outdoor shower and wash sink here for an easy beach day cleanup. A few steps up to the first level reveals BEACH DAY RETREAT’S main living space including a great room that features an inviting couch and chairs as well as a Smart TV. A section of the coffee table pops up to provide a great workstation for those who can’t escape computer time. The kitchen, outfitted with portable Bluetooth® speakers so you can stream your favorites from wherever you may be, is well-equipped to accommodate your favorite vacation meals that can be served at the four-stool kitchen counter, at a six-person table in the sunroom, and another counter that seats four. Two bedrooms - a newly furnished queen and one with two single bunks - are also located on this level and share a hallway full bath. The third bedroom, an ensuite king featuring a private bath is located on the second level along with a media room with wood-beamed cathedral ceilings, a roomy sectional sofa, a Smart TV, and a bookcase loaded with books, games, and puzzles. There is also access to a second-level deck through the top level with stairs connecting it to the main deck. All of the bedrooms feature Smart TVs.
BEACH DAY RETREAT’s ideal location puts you within a bike ride or less than a 10-minute walk to the ocean beaches, and you pass a crowd favorite, Dairy Queen, on the way. Favorite local eateries of Avon Village and the Pamlico Sound’s opportunities for watercraft adventures are right around the corner. Guests of BEACH DAY RETREAT also have access to the Kinnakeet Shores community pool and tennis/pickleball courts. But it may be the home’s amazing sun decks that will draw you in to relax in the 6-person hot tub, sink into an Adirondack chair with a good book, or soak in those vitamin D rays. If you are ready to sound the retreat, book BEACH DAY RETREAT now.
New for 2024: New 6-person hot tub conveniently located on the main deck. New Adirondack chairs for decks and under-house living area. New bedspreads in all bedrooms. New furniture in the queen and bunk bedroom. New fish cleaning table. New for 2023: New AC system.

Just ok
We stayed at this property with another family for a week. Overall cleanliness was good. The house is older and needs some updates. The carpet in the home is stained and could definitely use either a good cleaning or new flooring. Especially with it being a dog friendly home. We were not impressed that we had no ability to change the thermostat. It has a 4 digit pin that you must have to change anything. It was kept at 72 degrees most of the time. We are used to keeping our house around 68. Not a huge deal but more of an annoyance. Also the upstairs shower is extremely small. There is no light over top of it so most of the time we showered in the dark. We had to contact maintenance regarding a floor board on the back deck that had snapped when one of the adults stepped on it. The back deck is not in great shape and should be replaced. Maintenance was extremely responsive and came out and put a new board down within a few hours. We did notice that the ceiling on the second floor had some mold from water damage. It left a musty smell in the house. Overall, it was a decent home for the price. It’s located in a nice, quiet neighborhood and fit our needs while we were there.
