About this property

The Historic Austin House in Downtown Manteo

Have fun with family, friends, or co-workers at this beautifully restored, stylish, craftsman home in Manteo! Located within the historic district of Manteo, the Austin House is newly remodeled within walking distance to the waterfront, festival park, shopping and eating. Bead-board walls, tile and marble bathrooms, to the handsomely designed trim work...everything has been restored in the likeness of a true 1940s Outer Banks design!
The space
Guests will have access to the entire two floor home which includes 3 bedrooms, 3 ½ baths, a fully stocked kitchen, living room with TV, laundry room, and wet bar. Relax on one of the 3 decks or enjoy a good book in the reading room. WIFI, satellite TV, and a blue-tooth stereo are available throughout the home. The house is also centrally located with easy access to Roanoke Island Aquarium, Elizabethan Gardens, Nags Head Beaches and Cape Hatteras National Seashore entrance. You’ll love this home because of the coziness, the location, and the views. The Historic Austin House is great for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, and families (with kids). The second story of the home provides an additional bed/bath/kitchenette!
Other things to note
One bath towel and one wash cloth provided per guest during their stay. The Austin House is made up of two separate and unique spaces: The Historic Austin House (accommodates 6), and Virginia Dare Cottage (accommodates 2). Please inquire with your host if you are interested in renting more then one space!

Host profile image
HELLO There! I moved to the OBX from Ellicott City, MD in 2013. I studied Human Nutrition, Foods & Exercise with an emphasis in Exercise & Health Promotion at Virginia Tech & put that knowledge to work on a daily basis as a Pilates Instructor at the only classical Pilates Studio in the OBX, The Presidio of Pilates! In addition to my education, my love for business & entrepreneurial spirit led me to Hosting! I CoHost multiple spaces in locations throughout the United States and as a Professional Referrer of hosting I take great joy in teaching folks how to start their own business hosting by themselves or with assistance. I have taught a course at the local church - The Path To Financial Freedom! I LOVE to TRAVEL - so reach out if you would like me to teach a course in YOUR home town in the US or Internationally!
Things that bring me great joy:
1. My relationships with my K9 Medusa, kitties Oli & Sassy, close friends & family, clients & guests!
2. Water (referring to all large bodies of water....not the beverage! ;)
3. Beach walks & Podcasts!
4. Meditation
5. Pilates

I am grateful for every guest, & potential new host, I correspond with! I look forward to hosting YOU, your loved ones, and many more in the months and years to come...truly a labor of love! Should you need assistance in hosting your own property, I would be delighted to help you with that AS WELL!
