92 Ocean Boulevard Lot 7-r, Southern Shores

A rare offering in the heart of Southern Shores, this circa 1957 Southern Shores oceanfront cottage from the Frank Stick era captures the timeless character and understated elegance that define one of the Outer Banks’ most coveted stretches of coastline. Situated on a rare 100-foot-wide oceanfront parcel in the most desirable section of Southern Shores where old school class and privacy still exist, the property offers a highly elevated homesite in the desirable X flood zone with exceptional dune structure, stability, and a wide natural beachfront presence rarely found today. Deep rooted, mature manicured hedges create a natural roadside privacy barrier, further enhancing the secluded estate setting. Inspired by the architectural traditions of early Southern Shores, the home blends original craftsmanship with thoughtful updates that honor its vintage coastal soul. Inside, over 3,177 heated square feet unfold across multiple living spaces filled with warm tongue and groove cypress walls, original milled woodwork, hardwood flooring, imbedded broken slate tile, and expansive windows framing commanding ocean views. The eclectic beach house aesthetic feels both curated and effortless, imagined by a creative mindset of times past but with functional utility and elemental flow that allows for transcending generations to feel perfectly at home. The atmosphere is classy, unrefined yet elegant, delivering a timeless coastal experience that feels authentic rather than manufactured. The flexible 5-bedroom, 3 full bath, 1 half bath layout offers generous gathering spaces while maintaining intimate areas for quiet retreat. A second-floor great room and open decking captures sweeping Atlantic views, while two enclosed covered porches add several hundred additional square feet of relaxed coastal living space perfect for entertaining, reading, or escaping the afternoon sun. A dedicated office space with full bath off the main home provides an ideal work from home environment while remaining separate from the main living spaces for privacy. An oversized three car garage and storage areas accentuate the NW wing of the home. Outside, the property continues to impress with a large high-quality Leisure Pool featuring a bathing ledge ideal for kids and dogs, a low-key dune deck leading to the beach, and additional expansive outdoor green spaces designed for relaxed coastal living. The iconic red standing seam metal roof further enhances the home’s unmistakable architectural presence and pulls the elements all in as one. This is not a manufactured luxury product. It is authentic Southern Shores oceanfront living with history, character, and a defined soul. A property where classic coastal architecture, privacy, elevation, and enduring style come together in a way that is increasingly impossible to replicate. *Listing provided courtesy of the MLS.
