Doctor's Orders/Nostalgic Family Cottage with Views of Pamlico Sound and Sunsets | Cottage in Ocracoke
3 Bedroom Cottage in Ocracoke
Where nostalgia meets modern comfort, with outstanding water views, in a peaceful location.
Comfortable, cozy cottage curated with local art, with tidbits of vintage and new, using colors reflecting the sun, sand and sea. With three bedrooms, two baths, living room and dining area in the kitchen, this home is perfect for a small family, or two couples. Nestled in the live oaks, in a quiet part of the island, our cottage provides privacy, relaxation and serenity.
But the real attraction is the spacious 480’ square foot screened porch, and upper viewing deck, with the most spectacular, unparalleled view of Pamlico Sound. And, as of 6/20/2025, there is now a small dock/landing that allows access to the sound!!
For eons, doctors have prescribed going to the sea for its healing, curative properties. In the late 60’s/early 70’s, my Grandfather – a physician- felt the call of the ocean, and decided that Ocracoke was the place for him, and our family. He and my Grandmother wanted a small place near the water, where they could immediately drop their things and get outside: on the porch, to the beach, or in the boat. They didn’t want to waste time with anything fussy. For our family, this island retreat was the best medicine from the busy, hectic-ness of the city. Our family legacy is woven into every corner of the cottage, each meal in the kitchen, game night at the coffee table, coffee or wine on this porch – each memory echoes through time. It is now my turn to share it with you. Lovingly and meticulously renovated and refreshed, it is ready for you and your family to enjoy and begin a new chapter for the cottage. When you stay at “Doctors Orders”, you are not just booking a cottage- you are becoming part of a story that started long ago.
Here’s to your family creating new memories in the home that our family has cherished for generations.
