A brand new private pool will be installed just in time for the 2025 spring pool season. Recently remodeled and impeccably decorated, Aurora is the hidden gem of Duck that you've been searching for. The home's proximity to downtown makes it the premier choice for vacationers who want to walk or bike to shopping, dining and attractions. Getting to the beach will be just as effortless using the neighborhood beach access at the east end of Christopher Drive. After a day at the beach or exploring town, come home and relax in the open-concept living area with vaulted ceilings and skylights that create a bright and airy vibe with abundant natural light. This fabulous combination living/dining space leads out to an expansive wrap-around deck where you lounge in the sun for your daily dose of Vitamin D. Back inside, get dinner started in the brand new kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Gorgeous LVP flooring flows throughout the entire home, including the bedrooms. The main level queen suite features an updated semi-private bath, and two more bedrooms upstairs share a Jack-and-Jill bath. Outside, you'll find a thoughtfully landscaped yard with charming walking path to a raised deck with seating for relaxing under the mature oak trees. No need to worry about traffic or finding parking around town, since you'll also be just a short walk away from the very best Duck has to offer. For a break from the beach, attend yoga classes, concerts, and annual events hosted at the nearby Town of Duck amphitheater. There's also a public park complete with a soundside boardwalk that takes you on a delightful stroll along the water to an eclectic mix of dining and boutique shopping. No pets allowed. No smoking/vaping.

This shot was taken from the town's boardwalk while looking West over the sounds. It is advisable to visit the location in Winter as that is off season - so you can spend more time taking in the beauty of the North Carolina coastline and also sunsets are usually much more picturesque around the time owing to the cooler temperatures and lower amount of atmospheric haze. Plenty of things around Duck to see. Further north, there is the Currituck Lighthouse where you can climb the steps to the top of the lighthouse. North of Corolla, there is an area where you can drive along the coast on the sand - 4X4s a must. Here you can spot some Spanish Mustangs, horses out in the wild. If you're lucky, you can spot them running along the beach in the surf. I'd recommend taking a tour through the Corolla Wild Horse Fund - the money from the tours is used to help the wild horses in every which way possible and the staff are knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you for stopping by and for the support. #colorful #goldenhour #weekend #waterlust #bestof5 ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6924/81a4b2b5-e4f9-4c93-9451-2d46cb0fefb1.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Duck Boardwalk 6 min walk \- 0.4 miles - ![Beachfront real estate in Corolla Beach North Carolina outer banks](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248635979819890/d4d3d06b-150f-4f8e-be50-d3e0455542b7.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Corolla Beach 17 min drive \- 11.3 miles - ![Wright Brothers National Memorial featuring a statue or sculpture](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6066265/3480b2d9-f7dc-4911-a568-cdd6da374537.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Wright Brothers National Memorial 23 min drive \- 13.7 miles - ![Jennette\'s Pier showing general coastal views](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6250741/dce5ecdd-464b-42b0-9979-bfc80b12bf43.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Jennette's Pier 39 min drive \- 23.7 miles - Scarborough Lane Shoppes 5 min walk \- 0.3 miles ### Getting around - Manteo, NC (MEO-Dare County Regional) 44 min drive ### Restaurants - Duck Donuts 17 min walk - Sunset Grille & Raw Bar 2 min drive - Coastal Cravings 10 min walk - Donutz On a Stick 12 min walk - NC Coast Grill & Bar 6 min walk ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Aurora: Private Pool | Short Walk to Downtown Duck pet-friendly? ### How much is parking at Aurora: Private Pool | Short Walk to Downtown Duck? ### What time is check-in at Aurora: Private Pool | Short Walk to Downtown Duck? ### What time is check-out at Aurora: Private Pool | Short Walk to Downtown Duck? ### Where is Aurora: Private Pool | Short Walk to Downtown Duck located? ## Have a question?

House was perfect for our needs and the new pool is fantastic! ##### Amy S. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Patricia C. 16 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Small but nice First the good things: The property has been recently renovated, and is nicely decorated. The kitchen has plenty of pots, pans, glasses, dinnerware, etc. Not so good things: There is nothing extra at all—no spices, oil, anything. Be sure to bring dishwasher soap/pods, as well as laundry detergent. The place does not have a pool, despite what it says in the listing, although it seems that one is being planned for the spring. And the place is small…really small, or cozy, depending on your point of view. If you use a hair dryer, bring your own, since there is not one at this property. However, if you do like to iron clothes when you’re at the beach, this place has you covered. There are two irons and two ironing boards available. ##### Patricia C.
