If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing, Hatteras Island retreat that's off the beaten track, consider staying at our unique island home. The Fig Tree House sits on a private, semi-wooded lot nestled in the island's maritime forest with Buxton Woods Coastal Reserve and the historic Cape Hatteras Lighthouse nearby. Just minutes from beaches, ramps, the lighthouse, and Buxton village, this quiet residential neighborhood is perfect for walking, jogging, or biking. The first floor includes hardwood floors throughout, including the living room, large stainless kitchen w/breakfast bar, dining room, and king master bedroom (#1) and bathroom. On the second floor there is a spacious bedroom (#2) with a queen bed. The third bedroom has a full bed and a twin trundle bed. The forth bedroom, cozy and bright, has a daybed. There is a newly renovated full bath (toilet, tub/shower) and laundry room on the second floor. Cool off in the small private in-ground swimming pool or relax on the rear sundeck or front screened porch. There is plenty of room in the yard for a game of croquet or horseshoes. There is a ground level entrance and garage/basement area for secure storage of bikes, fishing gear, and water sports equipment. Unplug, unwind, and enjoy all that Hatteras Island has to offer while staying at this relaxing island retreat.
