Located in the well-established Burnside Forest, 1086 Burnside is a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home on a 0.64-acre lot, with septic already permitted for 5 bedrooms. Held by the same family since 1978, it's suited equally to year-round living or a summer retreat. The 2024 renovation brought major updates across the home: new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, all-new Andersen windows, a propane tankless water heater, a gas log fireplace, and fresh paint inside and out, while the kitchen was reimagined with quartz countertops, refreshed cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and a dual-fuel gas range.
There's a real ease to how the main floor is laid out. The living room, dining room, and kitchen flow together while remaining distinct. Just off the kitchen, a second gathering space is anchored by the gas log fireplace and filled with natural light. A full bath on this level serves guests. Picture a Saturday morning: someone reading on the sofa, the table being set, and breakfast cooking — everyone drifting between rooms without leaving the conversation.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a quiet retreat of its own, with views back toward the treeline. A completely updated bath opens right off the bedroom, spa-inspired with a soaking tub and separate shower, and a large two-sided walk-in closet is easily shared. Two additional bedrooms share a second full bath on this level.
A finished room over the garage is currently used as an office, with flexible square footage suited to a studio, guest room, or playroom, separate from the main living space.
Step outside, and the property opens right up. Almost 2/3 of an acre lot spans several distinct spaces, surrounded by mature trees. A new back deck, added in 2025, is set up for entertaining, while established gardens bring color through most of the year. A new shed, also added in 2025, keeps the mower, tools, and beach gear all in one place. The lot stretches back to mature woods, offering privacy less than two miles from downtown Manteo and the Manteo school complex — and a small sound front beach is a short walk away, close enough for an evening stroll to catch the sunset.
Downtown Manteo. Roanoke Island Festival Park. The Elizabethan Gardens. All just minutes away — and the OBX ocean beaches, a short drive over the bridge.
Whether it's a quiet weekday evening on the back deck after work or a summer weekend with towels already in the car, 1086 Burnside fits the pace of life you bring to it.
