Tiny Living, Big Potential

Cozy Cottage – 40175 Kiddy Lane Avon

40175 Kiddy Lane Avon

If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a cozy canal front getaway on Hatteras Island, this one’s going to steal your heart. Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this adorable one-bedroom, one-bath cottage in Avon offers the perfect mix of privacy and island convenience.

At just 378 square feet, it’s tiny-home living done right — simple, bright, and full of character. The vaulted ceilings and tile floors make the space feel open and airy, while the cheerful kitchen and natural light keep things relaxed and beachy. Step outside to the large deck and outdoor shower, where you’ll be surrounded by mature trees and peaceful canal views. It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee or rinsing off after a paddleboard session

Coastal Cottage, Endless Possibilities

But what really makes this property special is the potential. The cottage sits on a rare 18,000-square-foot canalfront lot, offering plenty of space to grow. There’s room to build your dream home while keeping the existing cottage as a guest house or ADU — a great setup for family, friends, or future rental income.

The location couldn’t be better. You’re right in the heart of Avon — just a short hop to the Avon Pier, local restaurants, and shopping. Off-road beach access is nearby too, so you can easily spend your days on the sand or exploring by water.

Whether you’re looking for a simple island escape, a smart investment, or a chance to create your own coastal compound, this tiny treasure has all the ingredients for your Hatteras dream.
