Soundside, 5 min walk to the beach, 6 private decks, shared pool and pickleball

Our family has been on the Outer Banks since the 1960s, so when John was scheduled to work on the jughandle bridge in Rodanthe, we seized the opportunity to become residents. When John's job was finished we decided to share our good fortune with vacationers. Someday we plan to return as retirees!
As a local business owner of Studio 12, Dawn has become a well-known part of the Hatteras island community, teaching pottery and painting and she is an accomplished mixed media artist as well.
Photos and art- Treasured family photos have been gathered from beaches all over the area. Dawns coastal paintings (and one famous throne) can be seen in the house including the surfboard sign out front. She has artwork placed in local galleries and gift shops. The art in the house are all prints, available for sale upon request.

Dawn’s grandparents built one of the original beach homes in Carova Beach and her grandfather founded the first fire department there. Her parents were residents in Currituck most of their lives as well. Being raised here means that saltwater also runs in your veins and we can’t imagine ever living too far from the ocean.
Johns family includes many generations of bridge builders, his son being the fourth generation to work on the Bonner (now Marc Basnight) bridge. We are proud of the difficult work that builders have done. They give vacationers access to paradise and provide evacuation routes for residents during storms.
