Everything Needed in a Prime Location
Tucked within the oceanside, private, gated community of Buck Island, Salt and Soul Cottage delivers the ideal OBX vacation experience with clean and newly refreshed updates. From the back deck, you'll savor a view of the expanded pool area and one of the community ponds—and from the front, you're less than a quarter of a mile to the beach. The well-manicured neighborhood is designed for guests to discover on foot or by bicycle, with walkways leading to the private community beach access and cabana, tennis and pickleball courts, an Olympic-sized pool, and close by shopping and dining at Timbuck II and Monterey Plaza. Whether you're grabbing coffee, catching waves, or appreciating a family meal out, it's all just around the corner.

Cozy Living, Inside and Out
Inside, this well-appointed home has an airy, bungalow feel with an abundance of windows and natural light.

A king ensuite bedroom with private deck access offers a calming place to recharge. The second level offers another king suite and private deck, plus three additional rooms well-suited for kids or adults-alike.
