1201 Atlantic Ave. sits at the quiet northern edge of Corolla in Ocean Hill, near where the paved road ends and the landscape opens to dunes, sky, and the rhythm of the Atlantic. Positioned on 0.84 acres of oceanfront, this six bedroom luxury home offers a rare sense of space and privacy, enhanced by its end of cul de sac location and private beach access. The home is designed to frame the coastline, with multiple levels of ocean-facing decks and views that extend from the pool area to the great room, dining room, kitchen, shipwatch, and four of the bedrooms—including two bathrooms with views from the tub. Recent rental history has been strong, with the past couple of years hovering around $200,000. Inside, the home balances scale and comfort with private bathrooms for all six bedrooms, an elevator, two fireplaces (including one in the top level suite), cedar closets, surround sound in the great room, and two dishwashers for effortless hosting. The shipwatch offers an elevated vantage point, capturing long views of the shoreline and the ever-changing light over the water. The setting is part of the appeal. This stretch of Corolla is known for its quieter, end-of-the-road atmosphere, where golf carts and bikes can be part of daily life, and the Corolla Wild Horses can be seen just a short drive north. Nature preserves, walking trails, and Corolla’s historic attractions are close by, yet the property feels distinctly private—removed enough to feel like an escape, close enough to enjoy the best of the northern Outer Banks. A rare oceanfront offering in a location where privacy, natural beauty, and an intentional coastal lifestyle come together.
