Near the Beach! Saltwater Pool, Great Neighborhood, C0949
Enjoy scenic views from this home’s unique “tower” sitting room, roof top deck or many other decks. With plenty of space for your group to spread out, a short walk to the beach, and your own pool, Franklin’s Tower is the perfect center of gravity for your OBX getaway. Just a short way off NC12 in the southern part of Corolla, Franklin’s Tower is easy to reach. With an expansive corner lot, there is lots of space on the exterior of the property. The large driveway and two carports provide more than ample parking for your group’s vehicles. A basketball goal is ready for a friendly game of pickup or for someone to hone their free throw skills.
The open floor plan of the upper level is welcome and inviting with natural light flooding in from the many windows. It is anchored by a great room area, with plenty of seating in front of the fireplace and large screen HDTV and other entertainment components. A separate four-seat table in this area is perfect for whatever card or board games you enjoy playing. From here, step up into the focal point of this space, the octagonal “tower” sitting room. As if being in your own world, ease into the comfortable chairs to scan the neighborhood, read a book, or partake in that indulgent afternoon nap. A perfect place to relax at any time of day, this space makes Franklin’s Tower truly unique.
Step outside and you will see uniqueness goes beyond the tower. The arc-shaped pool is the center of attention of the fenced-in back yard. There are plenty of lounge chairs to let you bask in the sun. Outside in the yard, a park-style barbecue grill is ready for your grill masters and horseshoes await you for some healthy competition amongst your group. Adjoining the property is a formally constructed walkway that gets you to the beach with a short walk that is less than 200 yards.
This home is right off NC12 and offers close proximity to dining and shopping, including a Harris Teeter for any provisions you need. You are also just a short drive from the Currituck Lighthouse, Maritime Museum, or the Currituck Banks Nature Preserve.

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was very clean, kitchen very well stocked. Everything well maintained. Lovely saltwater pool and hot tub. Walkway to beach is conveniently next to house. The home felt very private without close neighbors on each side. Highly recommend!

This property was perfect for a beach vacation with extended family. We especially enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The location was easily walkable to get to the beach. There was also a place to park your bikes at the beach access. Lots of shops and food places nearby that we were able to ride bikes to. The house was spotless and well maintained. The rental agent quickly responded to my texts. We would definitely rent this house again in the future!

Fabulous house in a fabulous location! Plenty of space for the whole family, perfect beach access, and awesome outdoor decks/amenities. Beautiful saltwater pool, and the separate under counter ice machine was clutch!! It’s near several seafood/meat markets and the kitchen was stocked for us to easily cook every meal for a week, except one afternoon when we ran down to Kitty Hawk. The owner was very responsive and gracious enough to let us in the house about an hour early, since travel was unpredictable and the house was ready. I hope to return to OBX soon and would love the chance to stay here again!

Reacation
Overall we were very pleased with the house . The location ( which we knew ) was a bit too much for our oldest family members to make it over to the ocean . The heat was also a factor in that. It would be really helpful if there was some type of shade down at the pool in a corner . Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!!

The house was great. We could have used a second refrigerator in the house. With 6 bedrooms and only having 1 refrigerator was tuff. My mistake I should have look better at the property details. My grandson twisted his ankle in the pool drain hole at the bottom of the pool, that had no grate over it. It is a 6 inch hole, which should have a grate over it, so that you don't fall in it. I did contact the rental company to report it on Saturday and I was told that it couldn't be replaced until Monday June 29th, but it was never replace during our stay. It is definitely a liability for the home owner and or the rental company. The one bedroom with the queen size bed was a little hotter than the other ones probably because it didn't have a celling fan. I did purchase a fan at Ace Hardware to use during the week. Other wise the place was great we all had a great time and enjoyed the house very much. Kitchen was well equipped, much better than most I have stay at. Loved that it was located right beside the pathway to the beach. Thanks for sharing your beach house with us. The Carroll Family

Location was great.Disappointed as hot tub and separate ice maker wasn’t working. Also surprised there were no puzzles or games available since in all the years we’ve been vacationing at OBX- there’s been a plethora of puzzles and games to enjoy at the houses we’ve stayed in. There were a couple of lightbulbs that were out and the cleaning was just okay. (Cobwebs in corners, dust in surfaces & lamps, sticky shelves in pantry) our feet also turned black after walking around bare feet in 20 minutes. Overal, the location really saved this house from being a completely bad experience.

We enjoyed our stay very much. We loved the pool, the hot tub and all the space we had. The area between the back door and pool was very messy and the grill was dirty. All the toys and beach paraphernalia were strewn on the ground and dirty and we did not use them. Maybe a box for these things would help. There were some bottles and cans on the grass outside the pool which I picked up. Also, The top bunk bed had no sheets. Inside was pretty clean and quite attractive. We would like to return next year.

We had a great week at Franklin Towers. We have vacationed here before and it is our happy place. We love the new flooring and kitchen. Such great upgrades, but the master bath shower is beautiful! Well done to Dan and Betsy!!
