    What's special

    Updated bathOceanside cottageThree comfy bedroomsCovered picnic areaLarge tiled showersSpacious sun deckOpen and airy layout
    Welcome to Laughing Gull — a sweet oceanside cottage in the heart of Avon, just a quick stroll to the beach at the end of the street. Less than 300 feet to the sand and minutes from the iconic Avon Pier, this location makes beach days easy and salty breezes a part of everyday life. Nestled among beautiful old-growth cedar trees, this classic Hatteras Island hideaway has all the charm you’ve been dreaming of. Step inside to an open and airy layout where the living room flows right into the dining area and kitchen — perfect for gathering after a fun day on the water. Down the hall are three comfy bedrooms, including a queen ensuite with an updated bath, along with a freshly renovated hall bath. Both bathrooms feature large tiled showers and a clean coastal feel. The outdoor living here is just as special. Enjoy your morning coffee on the spacious sun deck, rinse off sandy toes in the outdoor shower, or serve up some fresh catch at the covered picnic area. Under the house, there’s tons of room to expand your outdoor hangout space, and a large storage shed keeps all the beach toys tucked away. The backyard feels wonderfully private, surrounded by mature coastal trees — a perfect spot for pets, games, or future outdoor projects. And don’t forget the large attic with pull-down access for even more storage. Avon’s convenient lifestyle is just the cherry on top — the island’s only major grocery store, hardware store, and pharmacy are close by, along with favorite local hangouts like Pangea Tavern, Gidget’s Pizza, Sunrise Seafood Market, and the Avon Pier. Adventure is calling too — Canadian Hole is just down the road for world-class windsurfing, kiteboarding, and unforgettable soundside sunsets. Whether you’re looking for a laid-back full-time home, a fun family getaway, or a smart rental investment, Laughing Gull checks all the boxes — affordability, location, and that cozy OBX vibe that keeps everyone coming back. Don’t miss your chance to snag a little piece of Hatteras Island charm!
