Orchard is an all-ages community in Moyock, North Carolina, a small town in Currituck County positioned between the Outer Banks and the Virginia border. The location offers a quieter alternative to coastal tourism while remaining within reasonable driving distance of beach access, shopping, and dining in nearby communities.
Lot rent ranges from $450 to $725 monthly and includes trash pickup, water, and sewer - all provided by the city. The community features paved streets of average width with off-street parking throughout.
Moyock itself is a rural area with a growing presence along the US 158 corridor. Residents here tend to value a slower pace and lower cost of living compared to the Outer Banks proper, while still being close enough for weekend trips or seasonal activities. The mixed-humid climate typical of northeastern North Carolina means warm summers and mild winters, with occasional hurricane-season weather considerations common to the region.
The community’s all-ages designation means families, working professionals, and retirees all live side by side - no age restrictions apply.
Orchard is located in Climate Zone 4. A MIXED-HUMID climate is defined as a region that receives more than 20 inches (50 cm) of annual precipitation, and has approximately 5,400 heating degree days (65°F basis) or fewer, and where the average monthly outdoor temperature drops below 45°F (7°C) during the winter months.
Knowing your area’s climate zone (as assigned by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Building America Program into one of eight zones), can help you predict your heating and cooling needs. Humidity and temperature can of course vary, even by county.
The Building America MIXED-HUMID climate zone corresponds to the portions of IECC zones 3 and 4.
