Every week, RealtyWire publishes the five largest home sales in Hampton Roads and the Currituck beaches, a market that runs from Williamsburg and Newport News down to the northern Outer Banks. For the week of September 28 to October 4, 2026, two of the top three sales were Spencer Team sales: No. 1 and No. 3, both in Corolla.
The Corolla homes on the list were up against a Williamsburg country club home and a restored 1891 lighthouse in the middle of Hampton Roads.

The week's top sale was a six-bedroom Corolla home that closed at $1,320,000. Built in 2000, it has 2,874 square feet of living space and 5.5 bathrooms. That's the most bedrooms and the most bathrooms of any home on the list, and the sort of layout that keeps a big Outer Banks rental booked all summer.
No. 3: 1285 Lost Lake Ln, Corolla, $989,000
Sarah Spencer and The Spencer Team listed this 2021 home in the Villages at Ocean Hill. It sits on a cul-de-sac next to the Currituck Banks Reserve, 965 acres of maritime forest, marsh and shoreline, and has semi-soundfront views of the sound, the salt marsh and the preserve.

It last sold for $729,900 in 2022. This time it went under contract eight days after we listed it and sold for its full asking price of $989,000.

What this says about Corolla right now
Three of the week's five largest sales were in Corolla. Even with 30-year mortgage rates above 7%, well-priced, well-presented Corolla homes are still getting full price, and some are under contract within days. Pricing, presentation and getting in front of the right buyers make that difference. You can read more about how we market a listing and how we work with Corolla sellers.
Thank you to our sellers for trusting us with their homes, and congratulations to the buyers. You can read RealtyWire's full Top 5 for the week ending October 4, 2026.
