Perfectly situated in Kitty Hawk on the Outer Banks of North Carolina and only 150 yards to the spacious beach. An easy breezy stroll with your morning coffee to catch the sunrise then easily walk back to the house for breakfast. The beach access is wide with no oceanfront properties to the immediate south, giving you lots of sand space!
The house is always improving and 2026 is no exception! Get ready for a whole new look! The house has brand new windows and doors throughout, new sheathing, and new LP Smart Side painted with a beachy color! Check out the photos for the progress. The house will be fresh and ready by Spring 2026!
Outside has plenty of polywood seating, decking, and shade and inside is clean, fresh and has plenty of natural lighting.
Located just one street behind the oceanfront, Lindbergh Avenue is coveted for its quaint, family and dog friendly atmosphere. Although you are vacationing on a sandbar, you can still enjoy bike rides and lovely walks up and down this neighborhood street. You will be walking distance to oceanfront dining at Ocean Boulevard and a local favorite, Art's Place. Enjoy live entertainment, breakfast, and burgers that are a local favorite! Walk or ride your bike to Rundown Cafe where you can eat or drink with an ocean view! Winks is next door where you can satisfy that sweet tooth with some ice-cream and outdoor seating across from one of several beach access points.
Spring and Fall are fabulous weather months with some flexibility on check-in/out days. Just ask if your preferred dates aren't showing up. No Dog Fee. No Cleaning Fee. No Linen Fee. No Anything Fee. Free Pool Heat for Spring and Fall.
Summer prime weeks are Friday-Friday weekly rentals only. Arrive any time after 4:00pm and wake up Saturday morning at the beach! Your beds are made and your door code is ready to use!
We are transparent and like simple math. There are no dog fees, cleaning fees or linen fees.
POOL is open March through October. Ask about FREE optional Pool Heat* in spring and fall! (NOTE that our pool and hot tub are professionally serviced prior to your arrival and once during your stay for a chemical check and cleaning.)
We understand the financial investment you are making into your vacation, so we want to be sure you are getting what you pay for. All our photos are current and continue to be updated. There may be some slight changes (improvements) to the decor as we replace or update along the way. Since we keep a weekly video on file, we can provide you with an up-to-date accounting of any changes. Our promise is that we deliver what we say we do. What you see is what you get...well actually what you see in person is far better as this property's amenities, proximity to the beach and clean appearance are hard to describe!
Here it is! A Family Favorite with Pool and Hot Tub, Turf for Cornhole Play or Cartwheels, Side Yard for dog business, and less than a 90 second walk to the wide and spacious Wilkins St. beach access! There is a huge Pergola over the turf and tall enough not to interfere with your cornhole game! Lots of shade options, too! And with mature, natural vegetation, you will enjoy plenty of privacy!
The ocean is so close you can see it and hear it from the house! And the beach access point is just around the corner on the residential Wilkins St with a generous entrance and miles of beautiful beach just waiting for you! Grab your coffee to catch the sunrise then return for some breakfast and to gather the rest of your crew. Beach chairs and a beach cart make the safe and easy "stumbling distance" walk to the beach a breeze.
Enjoy the dolphins, sand pipers, loons and pelicans throughout the day and in the morning and evening keep your eyes fixed on the sand and be entertained by the busy ghost crabs. Stay as long as you like or leave and return at your leisure. The house and the beach are THAT close and convenient! When you are ready to depart, pack up your supplies and roll them back in the balloon wheeled beach cart which is located in the laundry/utility room.
Upon your return, rinse off your sandy feet in the spacious outdoor shower and head through the gate to that refreshing, sparkling blue pool. Or sit under the deck in the shade and take a plunge whenever you want. When it's time to eat, enjoy a well-equipped kitchen and gas grill to make the day complete. You can choose to eat near the pool or take cover from the sun on the front deck table or at the picnic table on the front platform deck under the house. After the meal, head back to the beach and play frisbee, fly a kite, take a walk as the tide rolls in, or simply gaze in the sand and watch the ghost crabs scurry as they come out to clean their homes, wet their gills and snag a little dinner themselves.
As the evening darkens, flip the switch to enjoy patio lights under the house and in the pool area. And don't forget to turn on the pool light and pick your pool water color! Feeling chilly? Head into the hot tub for a relaxing soak before bed.
This wonderful "H" style home located on the highly desirable Lindbergh Ave in Kitty Hawk is less than 150 yards to direct beach access of miles of family and dog friendly beach! The open and spacious living, dining and kitchen is centrally located with two bedrooms on both sides. On one side, the King bedrooms share a full bathroom (tub/shower combo). On the other side of the living area is a full hall bathroom (no tub) along with a Queen Bedroom and the Twins Bedroom. Two front sliding doors give you access to a house length front deck where you can outdoor dine and see and hear the ocean. The large back deck leads to the keyless entry door as well as wonderful sunset skies.
Underneath the home you will find a cool entertainment space with a platform deck and outdoor lighting that is great for relaxing, escaping the sun or even escaping the rain! There's a fun "Selfie Station" and a fish cleaning table for all your freshly caught meals. The back of the house is where you will find the BBQ gas grill, Hot Tub, Turf with Cornhole, and of course the Pool and another break area under the back deck
There is a convenient Laundry/Utility room with a full-size washer and dryer, an extra full-size refrigerator/freezer, sand toys, bikes, chairs, and a beach cart. This is also a great space to store your luggage and coolers for the week. A keyless entry to this room provides additional security.
Situated on a large lot with mature natural vegetation, Salt on the Rim offers the convenience of Kitty Hawk amenities, and easy beach access and natural privacy.
Lindbergh Avenue has sidewalks for walking or chalk art, is a safe street for jogging, walking your dogs, or riding bikes. The property's back yard backs up to a quiet access road for quiet strolls as well.
Whether you want to spend a full day at the beach or come and go at your pace; whether you love to worship the sun or admire it from under cover; if you love being at the beach and close to everything, this home will check all those boxes.
You will be in the heart of sweet Kitty Hawk in the Outer Banks; the northern most of the southern beaches. This makes it an ideal central location to visit any northern or southern towns and activities. There's no need to go far with ample shopping, restaurants, grocery stores and drug stores nearby. Walk or bike ride to Art's Place for amazing breakfast pancakes or their coveted burgers! Enjoy an outside cocktail or delicious meal at Ocean Boulevard. Pick up some donuts at Duck Donuts. Bring your dog and your appetite to Shipwreck's and enjoy live music, outdoor dining with an ocean view or indoor sports viewing at the bar. You have to try their Shrimp Burger!
Not only is this home perfect for families, but it's also perfect for those wanting to bring an extra friend or two. With the option of sleeping up to eight guests, there is plenty of space to feel connected yet comfortable. (Children in diapers may allow up to 9 guests.)
