About this property
Mercury Rising: Backyard Oasis with Saltwater Pool
An unbeatable location, luxurious finishes and what can only be described as backyard perfection - Mercury Rising offers everything you'll need and more for a flawless family vacation. As you drive up to the house on your check-in day, its magazine-worthy curb appeal and impeccable landscaping will set the stage for a week's worth of exceeded expectations. No detail has been overlooked in this updated coastal retreat, ensuring a harmonious blend of comfort and style. Situated in Corolla's highly desirable Buck Island community, you'll be within walking distance to shopping, dining, resort amenities and best of all... the beach!
After a day of sun, sand and surf, come home and unwind in the thoughtfully designed and tastefully furnished great room. The reverse floorplan, vaulted ceilings and wall of east-facing windows make the most of the horizon ocean views. Chill your bottles in the wine fridge before curling up in front of the cozy electric fireplace. Both the living and dining areas lead out to a spacious sun deck with barefoot-friendly Trex decking. Back inside, the open-concept layout and stylish LVP flooring tie the common areas together for a cohesive look with excellent flow. The chef in your group will appreciate the remodeled gourmet kitchen with large center island, quartz countertops and top-of-the-line appliances including a six-burner gas range. Two refrigerators and two dishwashers make cooking and clean-up for large groups a breeze. The primary suite is also located on the top level and features a spa-like bath with dual vanities and custom tiled shower with rainfall showerhead. The mid-level consists of a den with TV and four additional bedrooms - all ensuite for plenty of privacy. Downstairs you'll find two more bedrooms, as well as a rec room with pool table and convenient access to the backyard oasis where you can cool off in the saltwater pool or soak in the hot tub. After dark, gather your family and friends around the fire pit to share stories, tell jokes and make memories under the stars.New Updates for 2026- Pool heat available, New hot tub,
New pool deck furniture, basketball hoop and yard games added. New landscaping, new fence around backyard.
Located in the gated community of Buck Island, Mercury Rising offers guests a variety of resort amenities including an Olympic-size outdoor swimming pool, kiddie pool, tennis court, basketball court and playground. A beach access in the center of the neighborhood provides a bath house and equipment rentals. Or cut through the backyard and use the Albacore Street public access, just a two-minute walk from the house. Mercury Rising is also within walking distance to restaurants, seafood and farmers markets, grocery and convenience stores, and Timbuck II Shopping Village.
No pets allowed. No smoking/vaping. Please refer to the Rental Agreement while reviewing Rules & Policies for pool opening/closing dates.
