Property Description
Located in the heart of Waves on Hatteras Island, this exceptional soundfront offering presents a rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated coastal home along with the adjacent buildable lot, an uncommon chance to control two side-by-side parcels in one of the world's premier kitesurfing and windsurfing destinations.
Offered together for $1.5 million, this dual-property opportunity delivers privacy, protected views, development flexibility, and long-term investment strength in a market where soundfront inventory is limited.
The Home
20 Knots is a three-story, five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home with private, direct access to the Pamlico Sound and features a spacious, dedicated kite and watersports rigging area. Ideally situated less than a quarter mile from Real Watersports, restaurants, and shopping, the property is also just a five-minute walk to the beaches of Hatteras Island and approximately fifteen minutes from the renowned fishing fleet at Oregon Inlet Marina.
The first level includes two spacious bedrooms—a king and a queen—along with a full bath and a large game room equipped with a television, stereo system, and full-size refrigerator. The game room opens directly to the deck and pool area. The second level features three additional bedrooms, including a king primary bedroom with en suite bath, private deck access, and sweeping sunset views over the sound. A second king bedroom shares those views and connects via a Jack-and-Jill bath to a bunk room with a trundle. An east-facing deck on this level captures beautiful sunrise views.
The third-floor great room offers expansive views of the Pamlico Sound. Designed for gathering and relaxation, this space features a 75-inch television, a surround sound system, and a well-appointed kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a glass backsplash. Western-facing windows reveal spectacular sunset views over the water, while a cozy library nook captures sunrises to the east. A half bath completes this level.
Ample storage beneath the deck and a large shed accommodate sails, boards, bikes, and beach gear for serious watersports enthusiasts.
The home has been meticulously maintained by the current owners, who use it as a second home during the winter months. The home stays consistently rented throughout the tourist season with many repeat visitors.

The Soundfront Lot
Included in the offering is the adjacent soundfront lot, complete with engineered plans for a five-bedroom coastal residence. Whether building a second home, developing a high-performing rental property, or preserving privacy and view corridors, controlling the neighboring parcel represents a rare opportunity on Hatteras Island.
This unique opportunity represents more than just a beautiful home; it is a soundfront compound opportunity in one of the Outer Banks' most iconic waterfront communities, combining lifestyle and future development potential in a single compelling offering.
