ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES! OFFERING 1,735 SQUARE FEET OF TOTAL CONDITIONED LIVING SPACE (1,272 SQ. FT. ON THE UPPER LEVEL AND 463 SQ. FT. ON THE LOWER LEVEL)! Just steps from beach access and offering beautiful ocean views, this extensively renovated coastal retreat combines the best of Outer Banks living with exceptional flexibility and income-producing potential! Lovingly maintained by the same family since it was originally built, this property has never changed hands. In 2020, the home underwent an extensive studs-up renovation and addition, thoughtfully updated with modern systems, quality finishes, and timeless coastal design. The upper level features three bedrooms, while the lower level offers an additional legally conditioned 4th sleeping room/studio/flex space with its own private entrance, full bathroom, and kitchenette (without a stove). The beautifully appointed kitchen is designed for entertaining, featuring quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, custom soft-close cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, bar seating, and generous prep space. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the inviting living area and front deck, creating an ideal setting for gathering with family and friends. Luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout and abundant closet space provide both style and practical storage rarely found in beach properties. Additional improvements include HardieBoard siding, updated windows and roofing, a dual-zoned security system (see Broker Notes), a whole-house solar-powered backup generator, outdoor storage, outdoor shower, and reinforced decking engineered to accommodate a future hot tub. ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING FEATURES IS THE LOWER-LEVEL STUDIO! This legally conditioned 463-square-foot space received its Certificate of Occupancy in September 2026 and offers endless possibilities as guest accommodations, a private retreat, home office, or income-producing rental. The current owner successfully rented this space through Airbnb, generating nearly $18,000 in 2024 and just under $25,000 in 2025, before transitioning to a single occupant in 2026. The property currently has a 3-bedroom septic system, and according to Lee's Land and Septic, it can be upgraded to accommodate four bedrooms for approximately $4,500. The seller currently uses one of the upstairs bedrooms as a flex space, providing even more versatility. Outdoor living is just as inviting! Enjoy the covered outdoor entertaining area with café lighting and refreshing ocean breezes, or head up to the rooftop deck, where panoramic ocean views and spectacular sunrises capture everything there is to love about the Outer Banks lifestyle. With beach access just steps away, spending the day with your toes in the sand couldn't be easier! Offered fully furnished and move-in ready, this exceptional property is perfectly suited as a primary residence, second home, or investment opportunity. With its extensive 2020 renovation, flexible living arrangements, separate conditioned studio, documented rental history, and unbeatable proximity to the beach, 200 E. Arch Street offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the Outer Banks lifestyle while making your property work for you!
