About this property
Down East Core Sound Cottage in Atlantic
Cozy newly renovated cottage in quaint historic fishing village of Atlantic, within walking distance of great views of Core Sound. This charming 3 bedroom, 1 bath bungalow with a screened-in porch, is the perfect getaway for a quiet vacation. Located in the original Down East area of Carteret County, just 12 miles to the Cedar Island/Ocracoke Ferry and a public beach, 29 miles to the Harkers Island Waterfowl Museum, 31 miles from Historical Beaufort, and 3 miles by boat to the Outer Banks and Cape Lookout National Seashore.
Many day trips available to Atlantic Beach and other destinations. Local fishing charters and hunting guides available. It is just minutes from the harbor, boat docking, and boat ramp.
Discover an unspoiled paradise, leave the crowds behind, and relax in a beautiful natural setting in this bungalow. Nestled on three-quarters of an acre in coastal North Carolina, this 1100-square-foot home offers the perfect getaway for outdoor enthusiasts. Bring your boats for days spent fishing or travel to the scenic uninhabited beaches! For a day trip, head 45 minutes to historic Beaufort or 50 minutes to Morehead City.
