New construction. Local craftsmanship.
Your next chapter on the Outer Banks.
Explore House #12, 505 Soundside Road in Nags Head, built by Smith Contracting. Coastside Properties is welcoming visitors during this year’s Parade—and helping you explore what buying or building here could look like.

505 Soundside Drive, Nags Head, NC
Built by Smith Contracting
Set on the historic sound side, this home offers a fresh take on the classic Nags Head cottage - built within a historic district that carries multiple layers of regulation, requiring a design that honored both the site’s character and its restrictions.
A few details to notice:
• Natural Materials
• Unexpected Architectural Moments
• Easy Living
Brian Smith and the Smith Contracting team build and remodel on the Outer Banks with the same intention every time - to honor what’s already special about a place and make it better.
Whether it’s a new custom home, a commercial space, or a home that’s been in your family for decades, the approach doesn’t change: steady, straightforward, and built to fit right into the Outer Banks.

Maybe you’re ready for a completed home. Maybe you want to choose finishes while construction is underway. Or perhaps you’re gathering ideas for a home you’ll build yourself.
We help buyers explore move-in-ready homes, properties under construction, homesites, and planned communities throughout the Outer Banks.
We’ve personally purchased new construction, too. We bring that experience, local builder relationships, and knowledge of the buying process to help you decide where to start.
A completed spec home, a home still under construction, or a custom build—each offers different possibilities and comes with its own questions. At Coastside Properties, we help you explore those options with your goals, budget, and timeline in mind.
Our team brings experience working with new construction buyers, firsthand experience purchasing new construction, and relationships with local builders. Lauren Hayes Palmer, our Lead Buyer’s Agent, has also completed NAR’s New Home Construction and Buyer Representation course, adding focused training to the guidance we provide.
For you, that means help understanding what’s included, what decisions may still be yours to make, and what to ask before moving forward. From comparing homes and locations to exploring homesites and connecting with builders and lenders, we help you put the pieces together and navigate the purchase through closing.
Whether you have a clear vision or are just beginning to consider buying new, we’re here to help you figure out where to start.
