The Seabiscuit* Walk to Festival Park & Downtown
New to Seaside for 2025! Beautiful Retreat in Manteo Nestled in the heart of historic Manteo, this charming coastal home offers a peaceful retreat with quality finishes, comfortable living spaces, and a walkable location that brings the best of Roanoke Island right to your doorstep. From the moment you arrive, the beautifully landscaped front yard and inviting front porch with classic rocking chairs set the tone for a relaxing Outer Banks getaway.
Inside, the Main Level welcomes you with gleaming hardwood floors, a spacious Living Area with a cozy decorative fireplace*, and a well-appointed Kitchen featuring white marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a gas stove—perfect for preparing fresh, local seafood dinners. Adjacent to the kitchen, a sunny Dining Area offers space to gather for meals, and a convenient half bathroom completes this level. Enjoy card games or board games at the table by the window for a perfectly relaxing and rejuvenating vacation. The decor in this home is thoughtfully curated, whisking you away to a world outside of time where all that matters is the sound of the birds at the soundfront and the cool breeze to great you off the water.
Upstairs, you'll find a thoughtful layout ideal for families or couples traveling together. Two Queen Bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with a shower/tub combo, double white marble sinks, and stylish fixtures. A dedicated desk nook makes it easy to catch up on remote work or plan your next day's adventures.

Step outside to enjoy the coastal breeze from the private front porch, where evenings are best spent sipping sweet tea while watching the world go by in a cozy rocking chair. The back porch opens to a pretty backyard with blooming hydrangeas and other well-kept plantings that add to the tranquil atmosphere. An Outdoor Shower is located between the main house and the adjacent apartment—handy after a day at the beach or walking along the nearby boardwalk.
Downtown Manteo: A Hidden Gem of Uniqueness and Marvel One of the home's most unique features is its location—just down the street from the Manteo soundfront.
