Corolla Oceanfront 18BR | Pool, Hot Tub

THE MARK TWAIN — An Oceanfront Estate by LuxStayUSA



The Mark Twain sits oceanfront on Corolla's four-by-four beach: eighteen bedrooms, fifteen full baths and two half baths over three floors, joined by a private elevator. A boardwalk runs from the pool deck through the dunes to the public beach. The second floor is given over to gathering: a great room with a baby grand, a chef's kitchen with four refrigerators, a twelve-seat media room and a game room with pool table and foosball. It sleeps forty.



A 4WD or AWD vehicle is required to reach the house. Satellite parking and a shuttle are available if you arrive without one.

LOCATION & BEACH ACCESS



The Mark Twain occupies a rare position on Corolla’s 4x4 beach — a stretch of undeveloped Atlantic coastline accessible only by off-road vehicles, where the famous wild Corolla horses roam freely along the shore. There are no paved roads and no commercial development.



Direct Access to the Public Beach — Miles of public shoreline, reached directly from the estate’s own boardwalk. The estate sits on three private oceanfront acres, giving your group room to gather on the beach or watch the sunset without another party in sight.
