Description
The Island House boosts a reverse floorplan to capture canal and distant sound views that surround Oyster Creek. Architecturally minded features such as Age in Place Living with elevator access to all floors, thoughtful wide doorways, and other designs invite generations to enjoy.
The second-floor vaulted living, dining and kitchen spaces welcome entertaining with a cooks-kitchen, large eat-in island and an antique farm table to enjoy your fresh cooked catch of the day. This open floor plan offers several sitting spaces with sunset views and a large flat screen TV in the living room. A half bathroom and separate laundry room are nestled down a short hallway. And a dedicated competitive puzzling area, home school space or workstation is also on this level with a large drop leaf table.
On the first-floor, a separate den area with large flat screen TV is perfect for watching movies. Down the hall, a large Victorian barn door will close off the three bedrooms and two bathrooms from the den and provide a quiet retreat from the second floor entertaining.
The ground-level access welcomes guests with a lime washed herringbone brick floor – the perfect space for unloading after your beach excursions.
Bring your fishing poles and sunscreen and sit a spell among the cedars and make the Island House your newest beach tradition.

As with every visit, this past week was magical. Together with my friends and extended family and dog in my most happy place, nothing could be better. And as I grow older and older, Island House is perfect for me with all its accommodations. Ocracoke never disappoints, and neither do you guys at OIR!- Reviewed On: 4/28/2024

My wife and I have been vacationing on Ocracoke since the 70’s. This house,so well designed and constructed ,is the finest house we have found,as others have attested. Pets welcome and a 3 floor elevator are a huge plus! Our 3x rental favorite! We Love It!- Reviewed On: 9/5/2023

We rented Island House for 2 weeks which ended yesterday. And what a wonderful 2 weeks it was. My family once owned a home on Ocracoke and we have been visiting the island since mid 1970’s. So I know the island well. In my opinion, Island House is the pick of the litter. I am not aware of a nicer rental on Ocracoke. Everything about this house is first class. Excellent construction, wonderful floor plan, great location, and an elevator! The furnishings are exquisite and the kitchen is beyond compare. If I could give it 10 stars, I would. If you are looking for the best, look no further. And yes, we will be renting it next summer. Bravo!- Reviewed On: 8/7/2023

We’ve stayed in a number of different properties on the island and this by far our favorite. Super clean, high-end accommodations, kitchen, and amenities. My in-laws join us for part of the trip and that would not normally be possible, but the elevator, accessible bathroom, and living spaces make it possible. Already booked again for next year.- Reviewed On: 6/17/2023
