Four bedrooms, each with its own private bath, give everyone a comfortable retreat. Plus they all have direct deck access and all of bedrooms upstairs have ocean views! Outside, the experience continues with covered and uncovered decks offering plenty of places to enjoy the salt air, morning coffee and more ocean views. Out back, a custom covered bar with generous seating, brick patio and sandy volleyball court create a gathering spot all their own. The sellers have thoughtfully improved the home over the years with quartz countertops, updated appliances, a tankless water heater, composite decking, updated HVAC components and more—but perhaps the best testament to what they've created comes from the people who have stayed here. A successful vacation rental with a 4.98 Airbnb rating and Guest Favorite status, the home has inspired guests to call it their “best family beach vacation yet” and praise its thoughtful details, comfortable layout, abundant outdoor spaces and incredible proximity to the beach. Many say they would return—and some already have. The central Kill Devil Hills location puts you close to shopping, dining, groceries and Avalon Pier, while still being just steps from the beach. Come Fourth of July, skip the crowds and enjoy one of the best perks of the location - watch the Town of Kill Devil Hills fireworks over Avalon Pier right from home! A little nostalgic, a lot of fun, and filled with the character that made people fall in love with the Outer Banks in the first place. Come experience it for yourself!

Welcome to Anika Way, a truly gorgeous 2023-built home tucked into the sought-after Water Oak community and backing directly to the Wright Brothers Memorial National Park. That protected National Park land behind you is something no amount of money can build or replicate, and it gives this property a sense of openness, privacy, and permanence that is genuinely rare on the Outer Banks. From the moment you walk through the door, the condition speaks for itself. Pristine is the only word for it. Built in 2023 and meticulously maintained since, this home shows better than new construction, with none of the wait or the punch list. The owners went well beyond the builder's standard package at nearly every turn. The heart of the home is a bright, open living and kitchen area anchored by a showstopping quartz waterfall island, upgraded from the builder's original plan to a significantly larger footprint. It seats a crowd, gives you all the prep space you could want, and naturally becomes the place everyone gathers. Quartz countertops carry throughout the kitchen, and the gas range is a genuine upgrade any cook will appreciate. Overhead, exposed beams add architectural warmth and character, elevating the space well beyond what you typically find in a home of this vintage. The adjoining living room centers on a gas fireplace, a true focal point that anchors the room and delivers instant ambiance at the flip of a switch. Electrical has already been run above the fireplace, so mounting a television there is simple and clean if you want it. Motorized shades in both the living room and the primary bedroom let you control light and privacy at the touch of a button, a small luxury you will use every day. The first-floor primary ensuite is a standout, delivering the ease of single-level living while preserving privacy from the additional bedrooms. Quartz countertops continue in the primary bathroom, tying the finishes together beautifully. In total the home offers four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, giving you flexibility for guests, a home office, a bunk room, or whatever suits the way you live. Every bathroom in this home has been upgraded. Fully tiled showers and tub surrounds, upgraded vanities, and elevated fixtures mean there is not a builder-grade bathroom in the house. Both guest bathrooms feature granite countertops, offering warmth and contrast alongside the quartz found in the kitchen and primary suite. Then there is the backyard, and this is where Anika Way really separates itself. The heated saltwater pool extends your swim season well past the summer months, and saltwater means softer water and easier maintenance. The covered back patio was made for long evenings outdoors, whether that is morning coffee, an afternoon in the shade, or dinner with friends as the sun goes down. Rain or shine, you have a comfortable place to sit outside. A full irrigation system keeps the landscaping green and healthy with almost no effort on your part, which matters here on the coast. This is a phenomenal home for entertaining. Guests gather at the island, the doors open, and the party moves outside to the pool and patio without missing a beat. The flow between indoor and outdoor living is effortless, exactly what you want in a coastal home. Water Oak residents also enjoy access to a community pier, adding another dimension to the coastal lifestyle and making the water part of everyday life here. Location, condition, and upgrades rarely line up this well. Backing to protected National Park land, built in 2023 and kept immaculate, upgraded thoughtfully throughout, and finished with a heated saltwater pool and covered patio, Anika Way is completely move-in ready as a primary residence, second home, or investment property. Photos are beautiful, but they do not fully capture this home. Schedule your private showing and see it in person.

Beautiful heart pine floors, a beamed ceiling in the great room, and tongue-and-groove accents add warmth and character.

The homesite is nestled in a maritime forest setting surrounded by gorgeous old live oak trees, offering natural beauty, shade, and privacy.

Recent updates include a new fortified roof (2026), new tankless water heater (2022), with washer, dryer, and refrigerator in the primary living area all within the last five years.
