A marvelous multi-level flat top experience with style awaits your viewing pleasure in this Southern Shores gem created the way it was truly meant to be! A real mid-century modern design that was created by the iconic legend Frank Stick. Originally responsible for envisioning and developing the town to serve as the ideal Outer Banks beach community. A Recent 2021 renovation offers the peak of modern comfort and quality, every step in through this property holds true to Stick’s designs and style while offering all the modern amenities you want to host family groups. The Seaquel home is situated ideally onto over an Acre of Ocean Front Land on two lots creating perfect placement of spaces b/w Ocean Boulevard and the mature vegetated dune line. The double garage and large U-shaped driveway accommodate the necessary ingress and egress of parking with ease. The flat top design is one of the few left with original styles of Outer Banks architecture, modeled partially after homes in Florida but with key details like using native timber to connect the home with its surroundings. Seaquel is featured in the Flat top home tour which had over 700 attendees in 2024. Acclaimed for their minimalist design and “Family summer home” feeling these properties provide, they stand as a juxtaposition to “Party Time Rental Property” vibe that has dominated the landscape in recent years. Even so, 142 Ocean Boulevard provides 7 bedrooms, a bonus room (used as an eighth BR), 6.5 Baths, and a beautiful back yard with pool and outdoor shower that checks all the boxes you could ask for in an ocean front home with an eye on vacation rentals. The dual level flat top offers wide open living and dining spaces around a central hub, complete with restored vintage furniture, built-in bench and card table, and a large brick fireplace. The commanding kitchen comes equipped with Wolf and Décor appliances, an extra-large island with counter-height seating, and offers amazing views of the outdoor space. Features include a 48" Wolf gas oven and range with a double griddle, two dishwashers, a built-in 36" refrigerator and 30" freezer. The main living space is flanked on North and South sides by four bedrooms. Moving through the stunning naturally lit sitting room located at the front of the house with its vintage double pane interior windows and the original 1950's showcase Terracotta flooring, we find the natural tone wood stairs that lead to the 2nd level. Opening into a large sitting area with its own kitchenette, arcade room, and deck space facing west for beautiful sunsets. Just at the top of the stairs sits a bedroom with custom built-in bunk beds and full En Suite bath. Across the open sitting area offers another bedroom that shares a full modern design renovated bath with its oceanside counterpart. There are two large Ocean side bedrooms that showcase the stunning views created by the elevation of this Stick design with their large ocean facing windows. One connected to the living space via an arcade room and to the front bedroom by its shared bath offering built in bookshelves while the other functions as the main En Suite with deck access and stunning En Suite bathroom with dual rain heads. Opening the space up, a massive picture window with built-in blinds on the wall of the main bedroom allows the sitting room to take in the full ocean views and visually expand the entire secondary living area. Venture into the thoughtfully designed back yard with its Travertine decking, pool, artificial turf space and hot tub and grilling area with a private walkway leading you to the uncrowded Southern Shores beaches, with a perch that’s perfect for coffee and sunrises. Sequel is a registered historic property offering yearly tax savings with the historic deferment program. This unique mid-century modern design offers an authentic experience that is unmatched. A 100-Foot-wide lot offers redevelopment if desired. This is how Southern Shores was meant to be experienced!
