About this property

Serenity on the Sound - Quiet Neighborhood - Water Views

Serenity is a home that provides beautiful views of the Albemarle sound in a private setting. The home is second row waterfront. Water access is directly in front of the home and there is a boat ramp in the neighborhood. The water is usually 4-5 feet deep, depending on the wind, and is a sandy bottom. Sit in a rocking chair and enjoy the views from the porch, walk to the water for a swim, or take a drive to several nearby towns including historical Edenton and the Outer Banks. This is the perfect home to relax.
Edenton – 15 minutes
Columbia – 15 minutes
Nags Head – 1 hour
Elizabeth City – 40 minutes

We do not allow pets in the house or on the property. We allow up to 8 people on the property but no more than 8, regardless of whether or not they're spending the night.

We recently stayed at Serenity on the Sound while visiting my parents’ home for my brother’s wedding, and it was absolutely lovely. The house is adorable and located on a very peaceful, quiet street with beautiful views and an amazing porch. The beds were comfortable, everything was spotless, and the shower had great water pressure with plenty of hot water.We usually stay at my parents’ house, but if we ever need another local rental—or just want a quiet weekend getaway—we would definitely return. I highly recommend this property and the host.

About the host

Hosted by Kari Cahoon

Host profile image

My husband was born and raised on the Albemarle sound. I moved here after I graduated from college and never left. We love this area. We love everything outdoors and we love the water.

Why they chose this property

This house is very special. My mother always loved the water so my dad built this second home for her so she could sit in a rocking chair on the porch and enjoy the beautiful views of the Albemarle sound. The house was finished in January 2012 and sadly she passed away in July. My mom named the house Serenity. This was going to be her get away. Now it will be a get away for many to enjoy and she would love that!

What makes this property unique

All doors are wheelchair accessible though there is not ramp into the house.
