Historic Cottage Steps from the Beach and Dog Friendly!
Built in 1954 and added to the Kill Devil Hills inventory of historic homes in 2015, this cottage harkens to a more simple and enjoyable vacation experience. Steps from the beach, dining and Avalon Pier, but in a quiet location with a good deal of privacy!
Enjoy the salt air and ocean breeze without leaving the property! Rocking chairs and bar stools provide seating in the side porch/breezeway. The ground level deck in back has bench seats and throw pillows for your comfort.
While in the breezeway, take a look at the rustic stand created by a local artisan using the home's original solid wood front door and heart pine lumber harvested from the Roanoke Island property of the one and only Andy Griffith!
Everything you need to begin the best vacation is provided! Just drop your bags and take a stroll to the beach!

Great Little Cottage
This property is immaculate! It was perfect for my husband and I and our dog. The owner was very courteous and easy to communicate with. She even had bowls and treats ready for our dog!
The location is walking distance to the beach, fishing pier and restaurant.
We enjoyed our stay very much!

Great Weekend Getaway
My family and I, to include our 2 dogs, took a weekend to travel to OBX so we could introduce our newest dog to the beach. Knowing not all places accommodate pets, we were delighted to find Sandie's place and its prime location. As we arrived, Sandie was there to great us and share details about the property. That was different from my past experiences with rentals, I thought it was a great touch. The property was exactly as advertised, and she did a great job using the space and making it feel comfortable and inviting. She had everything we could want in a getaway to include treats and bowls for our pups. We had a great stay enjoying the beach, the restaurants close by, the comfortable beds, the provided puzzles, and the TV entertainment for an evening movie. Thank you for providing such a great space.

Perfection
First off, the place was adorable. My daughter and I especially loved the aesthetic. I now realized that a place that has my vibe is so much better than a barebones, cookie cutter place. The provided things big and small, made the place so thoughtful for guest needs. We enjoyed the outside and inside spaces. Super good television, air conditioning and lighting. Plenty of places to charge electronics. We loved the neighborhood. People were friendly and quiet. Beach access very close and it has a lifeguard. The owner lives in town, knows what she is doing and is more than helpful.

Small, but cute!
What a sweet little bungalow! My husband and I stayed there with our two schnauzer pups. Windswept is a great little cottage in a perfect central location. It's a super quick walk to the beach, Awful Arthur's and Avalon Pier. It was immaculately clean, and our check-in with Sandie was great! The amenities went above and beyond your standard home rental, to include coffee service, fresh muffins, shampoo, soap and a first aid kit. The entire house is well thought out and beautifully decorated throughout. The indoor shower was a bit petite, and challenging to navigate, however, the outdoor shower more than makes up for it- just shower outside. It's more fun anyways! :) The breezeway and outdoor sitting area were perfect for early morning coffee and late afternoon cocktails. We'll be back, for sure! Thanks for allowing us to stay!

Om värden
Sandie Markland är värd
My husband and I retired and moved to our vacation home in Kill Devil Hills over 15 years ago and have never looked back. We met, married and raised our family in Northern Virginia. Pete is a retired Police Officer and I retired from Federal service on Capitol Hill. Pete loves to fish and engages in a variety of interests and hobbies. I am an obsessed gardener and collector of a wide variety of things --- primarily Talavera pottery and sea glass! I have built a successful business creating and marketing sea glass jewelry and my original hand-carved Stone Spirits. I have also come to love my little corner of the hospitality industry. I first started hosting visitors in our Kitty Hawk townhouse rental in 2018 and look forward to hosting guests in our new historic cottage.
Varför värden valde detta boende
Windswept Bungalow is located in a peaceful, quiet neighborhood --- a mix of seasonal guests, second homes and full time residents. It is located on one of the original streets built in Kill Devil Hills along with several other of the original flattops built here. You can hear and smell the ocean always! The cottage is within easy walking distance of the beach, Avalon Pier, Awful Arthur's Oyster Bar/Restaurant and Beach Shop. You can watch the July 4th fireworks from the front yard or stroll out to the beach for a spectacular view!
Vad som gör detta boende unikt
Built in 1954 and declared historic in 2015 by the Kill Devil Hills Historic Landmarks Commission, Windswept Bungalow is one of the few original flattop cottages remaining on the Outer Banks. Sadly, these homes are disappearing rapidly in favor of the larger homes currently in favor --- even many of those remaining have exchanged their leaky tar and gravel flat roofs with a less expensive and more easily maintained pitched roof.
This cottage was originally built as a reasonably priced summer home for individuals working in the Hampton Roads shipyards and was used for that purpose for several years. Eventually, new owners converted the property to a full time rental. The ravages of time and deferred maintenance took a toll on this property but a bit of elbow grease, the skill of local tradesmen and lots of love have restored this home and made it better than ever!
The Markland Cottage remains true to its original design with two small bedrooms, a bathroom that boasts a shower but no tub and that unmistakable flat roof! The old, leaky tar and gravel roof has been replaced with a new membrane roof but one which maintains that original style!
You will find it difficult to find another home here that is the subject of such love and devotion! It was my long time dream to own and restore one of these little homes --- Yes! Dreams do come true!!
