More than a Beach House!
Unobstructed Ocean Views Throughout and Just Steps from Beach Access!
Meet The Balcony—our Outer Banks beach home located in the heart of Corolla, in the Ocean Sands community. Just 3 houses back from the oceanfront, it offers unobstructed ocean views and is tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac.
This upscale, fully renovated, and beautifully decorated 5-bedroom, 4-bath home sleeps up to 12 guests and is perfect for relaxing with family and friends—indoors or out. Vacationing with another family? You’ll love the unique layout featuring family suites on both the middle and upper levels.
The property includes a private heated in-ground pool, hot tub, outdoor TV, and a luxury open-air full bathroom with a spa shower on the ground level--perfect after a day at the beach or pool. You’re also just steps from private community beach access.
Local shopping and restaurants are within easy walking distance, and if you’re looking to stay active, community tennis and pickleball courts are just a block away—with miles of scenic trails nearby for walking, running, or biking.
The Balcony also provides the ideal setting to watch breathtaking sunrises and stunning sunsets from our 2 wrap-around decks, built entirely with composite materials, offering privacy from the nature preserve directly behind the home and unobstructed ocean views from the side. While lounging in our cushioned patio furniture or one of our hammock chairs, you can enjoy spotting wildlife including beautiful birds, curious bunnies, and roaming deer! When you head to the beach, the undeveloped preserve to the north plus a wide beachfront means you’ll have plenty of room to spread out, play games, and enjoy the ocean without worrying about crowds.
We’ve carefully decorated our home to reflect our style and to create comfortable, beautiful spaces for our guests. Our newly updated interior includes a spacious great room with a large, comfy sectional where you can cuddle up with a book, watch the flat screen TV, or just take in the stunning ocean views.
When it’s mealtime, you’ll love our gourmet kitchen, fully stocked and newly renovated with white shaker cabinets, a quartz island with bar seating, and high-end stainless-steel appliances. We’ve made sure there’s room for everyone to eat together with our modern farmhouse dining table, breakfast bar seating, and a high-top bar table. Prefer dining outdoors? Head to the upper deck, where you’ll find a picnic table and two high-top tables with chairs--plenty of space for al fresco meals.
When it’s time to relax, visit our lower-level TV/game room—grab a drink from the wet bar, play a round on the table-top video arcade, or kick back on the custom sectional and enjoy a movie on the large flat screen smart TV. Or head outside and turn on the outdoor TV to watch a movie or game while taking a late-night dip in the heated pool or enjoying a relaxing soak in the hot tub.
The Balcony is not just another cookie-cutter beach rental—this is our second home, and it’s a space we truly love. We book direct (no extra booking site fees!), and our rates include upgraded linens, bath towels, and professional cleaning. You’ll enjoy a vacation in a home filled with thoughtful touches—not just another generic rental.
We’ve tried to think of all the details and include all the extras to help you have your best beach vacation yet:
Beach bikes, Tommy Bahama beach chairs, umbrellas, family board games, high-speed internet, 8 flat screen smart TVs (all with Hulu Live), and yes—even a Margaritaville frozen drink machine.
The Balcony offers all the comforts of home in a gorgeous location, just steps from the beach with ocean views—making it the perfect place to visit any time of year.

The Balcony History
For those who don't know us, we are the Jones Family - Ben, Jennifer, Evan, Nate and Jason. In our family, we believe that names should mean something ... we chose the names of our 3 boys all for very specific reasons. So when we purchased our beach home in September 2020, we knew we wanted to find a name that meant something to our family.
If you haven't already guessed where the name came from, you might bet that we chose it because our beach home boasts 2 wrap around balconies where we enjoy breathtaking ocean sunrises and savor stunning sunsets. Well that is part of the reason! But the other reason is that Ben and Jennifer graduated from Virginia Tech, and The Balcony was a favorite venue during their years in college. This restaurant/bar, originally called Top of the Stairs (TOTS) had a period between the late 80's to mid 90's where it was called The Balcony. The venue is still alive and well in Blacksburg, but has returned to the TOTS name. Our oldest two sons are also Hokies, so we felt that this name with its ties to Blacksburg, VA was the perfect name for our beach home! |
