All The Homes For Sale In Southern Shores On The Outer Banks NC

Southern Shores is made of of 8 different neighborhoods from Sea Crest Village and Pelican Watch on the oceanfront and the neighborhoods of Chicahauk, Mallard Cove, Fairway Estates, over on the soundside of Rt.12, with the rest of the Town proper. The newest addition is Southern Shores Landing.

The oceanfront is separated from the soundfront by a large dune ridge than runs the entire length of the town.

If watching the sun rise over the ocean is your thing, we have a section for Southern Shores Oceanfront Homes and a section for Southern Shores Soundfront Homes with sunset views over open water. For the boaters, there is a section for Canalfront Homes in Southern Shores and if your plans are in the future and you just want to get your foot in the door then a building lot in Southern Shores might what's needed to get you started. Browse and enjoy.

You can drive through rolling, wooded hills reminiscent of the mountains to suddenly find yourself at the beach as you cross over the top of the ridge.
