While cozy, at just under 700 square feet, the Avalon Beach Bungalow is one of the last remaining original Bungalows in our OBX housing stock. The place was re-designed in 2017 with an open flow to provide our guests a modern coastal living experience all while maintaining its original 1950's bungalow charm. Older beach bungalows, like this, can come with some imperfections. Your vacation is important to us, please read the entire listing descriptions and "Other things to note" to ensure the Avalon Beach Bungalow is a fit for you and your group.

Indoor Bathroom:
We have one bathroom inside - no tub - that features a small glass-enclosed shower and a multi-use shower head.

Outdoor Shower:
Most of our guests favorite place to shower is outside in the vintage masonry enclosed outdoor shower. This enclosure is very private and comes with a refreshing "rain shower" head for those hot summer beach days. In the winter months our guests can enjoy the warmth of the small wood burning stove that makes this time of year to visit more special!

As local owners, we are passionate about coastal living and enjoy the opportunity to share our beach homes we love so much with our guests.
