About this property
The Sound Castle
Three bedroom, two bath home located in the heart of Kill Devil Hills! Saturday check-in/check-out. This home is our little sanctuary on the sound side of the OBX. A 2 minute drive to the beach! From rocking chairs on the front porch to outdoor furniture and a swing downstairs on the carport area, there's room for everyone to find their own little corner for solitude or gather together for a homestyle happy hour.
We installed brand new flooring throughout the house in 2022, eliminating all of the carpet on the main level. It looks and feels great!
There are 2 beach chairs and several body boards/skim boards available for use during your stay.
Please read rules for our home rental before reserving. We do require a minimum age of 25 to rent. We do require an ID check. We require the person renting our home be present in our home for the duration of the rental period. (I.e. Parents reserving our home on behalf of underage children and not being present will result in cancellation of reservation. This can result in removal from our home if discovered during the rental period and there will be no refunds issued.)

About the host
Hosted by Sara Fiori
We fell in love with the Outer Banks on our first visit and knew we had to have a home there 'someday'. Someday came quicker than expected. My husband and I met later in our lives and did not have children. So, we spent our child's college fund on our first beach box in the OBX. We love the beach and love living life outdoors!
Why they chose this property
Every friend, family member, and guest who stays at our property share the same feeling afterwards: WE LOVE THIS HOUSE! We have easy access to everything. The side streets are easy to navigate to get to the grocery store, coffee, restaurants and other adventures often without needing to hit Croatan Highway.
What makes this property unique
This house has had so many happy celebrations. There is a lot of love and laughter born out of this home. It is definitely our little hideaway and hope that you will discover that for yourselves. Long walks along the sound on Bay Drive are one of my most favorite things to do. We have biked down to the Wright Brothers Memorial - the multi-use path is very easy to follow! There's a gazebo stretching out into the water a few blocks down from us that is a prime spot for sunsets.
We are truly in the heart of KDH. Just about everything you could need is either 5 miles north or south! Our neighborhood is a good mix of locals and rentals. Just a quick hop across Croatan Highway from the beach.
