You lost me. Do you want a house or duplex? I have seen some duplex homes that are oceanfront but not too many. 4x4 would be needed if you go ';UP'; to the northern 4x4 beach north of Corolla. Corolla down to Hatteras you won%26#39;t need a 4x4 to get to the house, they all have roads and driveways. $2k for oceanfront is going to be tough if it has a pool, you need to start hunting because the good stuff books up early.

Oceanfront with a community pool will be hard to find, homes 1 lot back from the ocean with a comm pool are easier to find but you will more likely be 2-4 lots back, but that will fit your needs better anyway.

You might give the listings in Corolla Light a look...several different styles to choose from as well as locations as far as distance from the ocean. We felt like we had a good price when we stayed at Lazy Daze in Corolla Light through www.Villagerealtyobx.com (or google lazy daze corolla light). Back from the beach but oceanside of the road...and ocean views actually. Nice sandy lane for your walk to the beach. Just one of many great places though. Corolla Light also has smaller houses, townhouses, etc. Just enough to do and things for the kids.

We can do a house, but, also saw some duplex on the beach. We want on the beach,oceanfront. Might have to go more South, towards Camp Lej. Like u said , pretty much booked.So we will see. We did find this..http://www.joelambjr.com/rental/house.html?ID=402

That%26#39;s Tiller%26#39;s house. It is actually about 1 block from where I live. It is right on the beach and about 1/4 mile from Avalon pier. Good ocean views but the house is not super modern or fancy, pretty basic but it rents well. I sit on my deck and watch the dolphins swim by and this house is even closer.

You%26#39;d be very hard pressed to find a oceanfront home for $2,000 in August. Try www.joelambjr.com and look around. You can get a very nice home on the beach road across the street from the beach with a private pool in the Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills area. Towards the end of August will be cheaper. good Luck.

EYE KNOW !!!! uggg...Still looking,,also trying VRBO..

End of Aug. won%26#39;t work%26gt;%26gt;%26gt; Kidds starte%26#39;skool%26#39; . :)

Boy, one more whopper of a storm or hurricane and that house (and those along there with it) are in the ocean!

Look down on Topsail Island and see what you can find. The island is narrow, so even if you get second row, you are still very close to the beach.

The drive down there is not that bad. You can do interstate almost all the way. Via I-40.

Come on, you have no idea what you are talking about. The oceanfront homes in Kill Devil and Nags Head have years and years left on them. There are no huge dunes that the homes are perched up on to collapse like in South Nags Head. I was here during Izzy in 2003, there were a few homes lost in Kitty Hawk but they were the old ones that sat right on the ground. Those up on pilings let the water go under with minimal damage.
