- Surrounded by rapid residential growth yet still the sole waterfront pit-stop within 20 miles, the property enjoys heavy year-round local loyalty plus surging vacation traffic bound for the OBX. New master-planned communities nearby are swelling the full-time population, while boaters, anglers, and day-trippers provide a steady stream of discretionary spending. Few area competitors offer this unique mix of marina access, food service, and entertainment in a single destination—positioning the next owner for significant upside.
- Opportunities for Growth
- * Outer Banks traffic funnel: 3–5 M cars use NC-168 each season—capture more with expanded grab-and-go, branded merch, and online pre-orders
* Finish the 75-ft dock to welcome transient boaters and host fishing tournaments
* Add espresso bar, craft-beer taps, or farm-to-table dinners to leverage ABC permit
* Build RV hookups or tiny cabins on excess land for nightly rentals
* Promote ticketed concerts and farmers markets to drive off-season revenue
