Home details
Vacation “Anticipation” is what you’ll have once you book this gorgeous oceanfront retreat! Stunning ocean views await you from this exceptional Pine Island vacation home. Grab a cup of coffee and watch the sunrise over the ocean. In the evening, head to the opposite side of the home to watch the sunset on the Currituck Sound. This home offers a secluded setting since there is just one row of homes between the ocean and the sound in this section of Pine Island, yet it is convenient to both the village of Duck and shopping, dining, and activities in Corolla.
This home’s grandeur is apparent upon walking into the main entrance on the middle level, with an attractive foyer with a curved staircase. Once at the top of the curved staircase, you are greeted by a wall of windows that allows the beautiful ocean view to take center stage. In the great room, there is a spacious living area with comfortable seating, a gourmet kitchen, and two dining areas. The spacious kitchen is a cook’s dream, with granite countertops, two refrigerators, an island with two cooktops, two ovens, two dishwashers, ample counter space, and plenty of cabinets for food storage. Preparing meals and cleaning up is made better with the Atlantic Ocean as a backdrop. Two dining areas offer the option of having breakfast while watching the sunrise and dinner while watching the sunset. An additional sitting area off of the soundside dining room serves as another comfortable spot to see the sunset. A spacious master bedroom on the top level has a large bathroom with a whirlpool tub and a private oceanfront deck. A half bathroom completes the top level.
The middle level includes four master bedrooms, each with a private bathroom. One of the master bedrooms offers a whirlpool tub and a private deck. Gather your family together to watch your favorite movie in the theatre room, with a half bathroom nearby. Laundry facilities are located on this level for convenience. On the lower level, there are two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom. Entertainment and relaxation were in mind when designing the remainder of the lower level. A rec room with a pool table will provide many hours of fun, and a wet bar with a full-size refrigerator and a microwave are nearby to keep snacks and cold beverages handy. Relax in the sauna after a long day at the beach. A half bathroom completes the lower level.
Step outside to the pool area to experience your own outdoor oasis. Take a dip in the refreshing private pool, or soak your cares away in the hot tub. Several outdoor furniture options and a grill allow you to lounge around or prepare a meal while loved ones splash nearby. Through the gate from the pool area, follow the private walkway over the dune to the soft sands of the Corolla beach. There is a generously-sized dune deck with built-in benches seemingly designed for afternoon chats. However you choose to spend your time at this magnificent vacation home, we’re sure that it will live up to your “Anticipation!”

Guest recommendations
"Amazing views, greatinfoor and outdoor spaces."
"The ocean front location"
"This is our 4th year staying at Anticipation. We love the fact that there are 5 master suites so that each guest has their own personal space. The kitchen is well equipped with two full size refrigerators, a gas stove and every appliance needed. The views from the large, beautiful windows is spectacular, so even if raining, you don’t have to worry. You have a lovely view of the ocean and a lovely view of the sound. The land where Anticipation rests in Pine Island does not and could not have a home in front of it, so the views of the sunrises and sunsets are in clear view!"
"This house is spacious enough for five couples and no small number of children. The views looking both east at the ocean and west at the sound are spectacular. The location is otherwise good in that if offers walks on the beach or on the inner road and paths. Furnishings generally were good, especially the bedding."
"Location is great! Ocean and sound views."
"Anticipation was incredible, we've already booked our stay for next year! Having 2 masters was a true luxury. The kids loved having their own tv room and pool. The kitchen is very nicely stocked with anything you'll need and perfectly laid out and spacious. The dumbwaiter was the biggest life saver! You can tell the owners put a lot of thought and care with what is at this home and as a guest it is so appreciated."
"Great location, great common areas for gathering, well stocked kitchen!"
"Great location and unmatched view of the ocean and sound."
"Wonderful panoramic views for both ocean and sound sides. Great sunrise and sunsets."
"Anticipation is a wonderful house, there is lots of space to spread out, and the layout is great for privacy and quiet. We had 16 people in the house, it was great for each of us to have a space to get away, but lots of common areas to hangout and spend time together. The kitchen is very well stocked and well laid out. The view from all sides is spectacular, looking out at the water, or at the sunsets on the sound. We loved the house, especially the dumbwaiter."
"Nice home. We enjoyed a quiet week at the beach."
"Great location and great home floor plan"
"Great location and nice home!"
"Beach views Kitchen"
"Awesome vacation rental!!!!!! The view was amazing and the house was fully equipped with lots of space!"
"The home is in excellent condition. It appears that many renovations were done in the last couple of years. We very much enjoyed our week."
"Anticipation was phenomenal! Our group totally enjoyed our stay here. Loved everything about it! Plan on returning next year!"
"Anticipation was absolutely beautiful! It was the perfect size for our family vacation. The pool was wonderful and our Grandchildren enjoyed the baby pool. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook our dinners. Great vacation!"
"Anticipation is a gorgeous home with stunning views of the ocean & the sound! The home is well-maintained & has a beautiful kitchen as well as living room. The pool is wonderful as well. Anticipation is a perfect home to enjoy a relaxing week in the Outer Banks!!!"
"Lovely home, well appointed. Would certainly return for another visit."
"The house was in great shape with many great upgrades - interior and exterior. The Owner's were accommodating and everything was better than we had expected!"
"Stunning views of both the ocean and sound through massive, numerous windows. We have stayed in many OBX homes, and this is our favorite. Very nice finishes, furniture, and other amenities, especially the sauna!"
"This home sits on a beautiful property where the sunrise and sunset views are stunning and beach is beautiful. Kitchen and upper floor living spaces are super nice with comfortable furniture and a lovely fireplace. Game room, hot tub, and sauna set the foundation for a relaxing vacation. Minor suggestions for improvement would be furniture/storage in master bedroom (3rd floor), pool cleaning, nicer beach chairs, cleaning of screened porch, and grill upgrades. We enjoyed a fantastic week in this super pretty property and look forward to returning in the future."
"A wonderful updated home in Pine Island. Our first year and we will be back. The last home we rented in PI we came back to for 15 years! This is our new vacation spot for the next 15 years! Great for large families with children, well stocked with highchairs and crib but most importantly has a "baby pool" that the one year old loved. We anticipate more kids enjoying that pool in future years. Very comfortable living areas. Also has a fantastically stocked kitchen for the chefs in the family. We were pleasantly surprised to find a dumbwaiter to get packages to the third floor. We really appreciated the high-top tables and chairs on the ocean facing deck- no obstructed view of the ocean. I miss the gourmet dinners we had watching the sun set over the sound. We all highly recommend this home."
"Awesome home with beautiful ocean and sound views. We really enjoyed the wonderful features throughout."
