About this property

Shell Town – Nags Head MP 16, Ocean View, 360 Yds to Beach, Pool, Hot Tub, Flex Stays

  • Welcome to Shell Town, a spacious oceanside vacation cottage in desirable Nags Head (MP 16.2) — just a 5-minute walk to the beach and only 2 blocks from Jennette's Pier. Featuring 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths, this well-appointed home comfortably accommodates family and friends with ample indoor and outdoor living space.

    Relax with sound and ocean views from multiple decks and enjoy unforgettable sunsets over Roanoke Sound. The private 12'×28' pool and hot tub are perfect for summer fun, while the covered deck offers shaded comfort anytime.

    The heart of the home is a fully equipped kitchen with two full-size refrigerators plus an extra pantry space — ideal for group meals and entertaining. A spacious recreation room with a pool table, foosball, wet bar, and games provides plenty of entertainment for all ages.
    ​​​​​​​
    Centrally located for convenience, you're within walking distance of local dining, market, and popular activities. With thoughtful updates, flexible layouts, and plenty of parking (great for boats or jet skis), Shell Town delivers everything needed for a memorable OBX getaway.

    Guest Review: "Wonderful! Fantastic family venue!" " For our first ever beach house rental with kids and grandkids, it turns out we picked a feature-packed rental home. The living and sleeping areas are incredibly spacious and well-planned for multi-family use. The open, well-lit kitchen had plenty of high-quality dishes, cookware and utensils, and the unadvertised extra pantry with 2nd refrigerator was a welcome surprise for the cooks! We made good use of the huge dining table for family board games, and when we entertained visiting relatives from Ohio there was plenty of room for a total of 21 people for dinner. The grandkids enjoyed the game room, and they loved the large pool! There are multiple back decks with good views of the pool below and of the ocean with lifeguarded beach near Jennette's Pier, just a short walk away. (The pier is open for night-fishing, and our dads and sons took the opportunity to make a memory by catching a skate!) A favorite family highlight was watching a spectacular lightning storm over the sound from the front deck off the dining room. We appreciated the personal contact with the owner, both through the rental process and in meeting our needs during our visit. We would definitely rent this house again."
