OCEANFRONT Hatteras — Lighthouse Rd. — A dream catcher’s circular shape symbolizes the uninterrupted flow of life as the moon sets and the sun rises each day. Now close your eyes and imagine a place that inspires you to thrive to a similar cadence. Open them and find yourself at DREAM CATCHER BY THE SEA, a spectacular nine-bedroom/eight-full and two-half bath home where all of your desires for a dream vacation naturally fall into place.

Located in the walkable and bicycle-friendly Hatteras by the Sea subdivision, guests have access to all of its amenities, including a pool, nature walk, and impressive beach. But you may find it hard to leave a home that serves as its own private resort. A glass block waterfall lulls the adults into the jetted spa end of a huge private pool, while the shallow tanning ledge at the other end entices the younger set to make a splash of their own. Rinse off in the outdoor shower after practicing your complimentary throws on the driveway basketball hoop and claim a seat at the shaded poolside bar while you sync up some tunes. Food to go with those drinks? Yes, please, thanks to the poolside gas grille and a full kitchenette with a refrigerator, sink, and microwave located in the adjacent game room. Here you will also find a pool table, foosball table, and a wall-mounted Intelligent TV. Microwave some popcorn and settle in next door, where a 16-seat home theater features a 110” screen and surround sound. Also on this level are a king and queen master bedroom.

Take the elevator to level two and discover five more bedrooms. There’s two king master bedrooms with access to an oceanfront deck; one bedroom with two pyramid bunk beds; one with two single beds and another king bedroom with deck access. The laundry room is located on this level as are two full hallway baths, one that features a roll-in shower making it accessible-friendly. A 6-person hot tub on the oceanside deck invites all to appreciate a calming soak to a serenade of ocean waves. Another king master with a jetted tub and private deck access is located on the third level. The final bedroom, a sizable king master suite with a jetted tub and private oceanfront deck is located on the fourth level and is connected to an executive office suite to keep your work/life balance in check. All of the bedrooms feature Intelligent TVs.

It’s on the third level where you'll find the reason everybody is drawn to the spectacular great room —with its striking ocean vistas revealed from floor-to-ceiling picture windows and a furnished deck that extends the length of the home. There’s room for more than one prepare in the cavernous and freshly reimagined gourmet kitchen featuring two of everything: oven, stove, microwave, sink, dishwasher and refrigerator and where a six-seat breakfast bar attracts early risers for that first cup of coffee. Make it a group affair and prepare a feast that can be served at two eight-seat dining areas. After dinner, pull a cold one from the wine cooler in the bar area and wind down the evening at the card table in the sunroom, snuggled on the couch in front of the Intelligent TV or on the deck as the stars take over the nighttime sky. Sound like a dream? DREAM CATCHER BY THE SEA can be reality by booking it now.

Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
