If you're looking for a high-performing investment opportunity, this semi-oceanfront home has it all! “Lemonade” is an amenity packed 8-bedroom, 7-full + 2-half bathroom home located in the village of Salvo on Hatteras Island, offering an exceptional blend of location, scale, amenities, and income potential. Just a short 2-minute walk to direct beach access at the end of the driveway, this extensively improved home is thoughtfully designed to accommodate large groups in comfort, featuring expansive three-level decking, a private heated pool and hot tub, outdoor bar and gathering spaces, a game room, fully equipped kitchenette, and an elevator servicing all levels. Recent 2024 upgrades totaling over $200,000 include a complete high-efficiency Bosch HVAC system replacement, new water heater, decking, flooring in main living areas, refrigerator, washing machine, and pool pump system, along with fresh exterior & interior paint, new furnishings in select areas, updated window treatments, three new beds including an adjustable setup, an electric lift recliner, and a fully refreshed inventory of kitchenware and household supplies/art work—enhancing both efficiency and guest experience. The property offers a strong established rental history, generating approximately $113,000 in 2025 and over $100,000 already on the books for 2026; however, these figures do not reflect full income potential due to owner-blocked peak-season weeks and repairs/updates/improvements. Situated in the heart of Salvo, this home is just minutes from the Salvo Day Use Area, a perfect spot for kayaking, paddleboarding, and stunning soundside sunsets. Nearby ORV beach access ramps make it easy to get on the sand, and local restaurants, shopping, and attractions are just a short drive away. Whether you’re looking for a high-performing rental or a personal coastal escape, Lemonade is the perfect mix of style, comfort, and investment opportunity.
