Located in Rodanthe, this charming house for $474 per night is a great choice for your next trip. OCEANFRONT Rodanthe — Featured in “Nights in Rodanthe” If a house could elicit 1,000 sighs, it would most certainly be INN AT RODANTHE, the iconic setting for the movie “Nights in Rodanthe” starring Richard Gere and Diane Lane, based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks. While most movie sets are elusive figments of a director’s imagination, this one is real — blue shutters and all — and ready to welcome guests to their own cinematic-like dreams. While the Atlantic’s pounding waves no longer lap at the home’s pilings (the house was physically moved to protect it from future storms), the six-bedroom/four-full and one-half-bath home still sits on a majestic oceanfront perch with gorgeous views to admire from multiple levels of outdoor decks. Staircases on two sides provide entry to the home’s first level where there is a cozy living room with a decorative fireplace, kitchen, and dining area. Movie fans will note some of the film’s set pieces like the artful swinging kitchen doors — the owners have added some original props and whimsical touches to replicate the movie house charm. The spacious kitchen is well-equipped to prepare meals that can be served at the eight-seat dining room table or more intimately at a smaller romantic table for two by the window. The first level also offers a wet bar, full bath, and laundry area. Four bedrooms occupy the second level, including the famous antique-filled blue bedroom where Paul Flanner (Gere’s character) slept and another with two twins where Adrienne (Ladd’s character) recalled memories of her dad. There’s also a master king overlooking the ocean and a garden room with a queen bed. One more king bedroom is on the third level and features a kitchenette and sitting area providing a secluded hideaway with ocean view. The final tower bedroom is a king featuring ocean views that seem to go on forever. While the home’s decks provide much of the film’s harrowing action, guests will find them a never-ending source of total relaxation and tranquil moments. Spot dolphins out at sea from Adirondack chairs or a swinging bench. Find a rocker and settle in with a good book, maybe another Nicholas Sparks novel? The lower deck sports a hot tub, perfect for a soothing soak as the waves roll ashore; a screened-in porch offers an outdoor respite, protected from the elements. Ardent fans of the film will discover there are other filming locations nearby to explore, but without a doubt, the stretch of private beach in front of the house will always be the main attraction. The idea of discovering second chances is what made “Nights in Rodanthe” a beautiful story. Make one of your own by booking INN AT RODANTHE. This property is managed by Surf or Sound Realty.
