Property Description
NEW PRICE + FURNISHED + RENTAL HISTORY = EXCELLENT VALUE! Searching for an affordable beach cottage with a great rental track record? Don't miss this one-of-a-kind home just a block from the beach with beautiful water views. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath cottage blends vintage character with thoughtful modern updates and is sold fully furnished. Offering nearly 1,600 SF of living space, plus an additional 200 SF enclosed sunroom and two covered porches, this home provides room for families to spread out and unwind. Inside, you'll find LVP flooring, board-and-batten details and custom light fixtures that highlight the home's coastal charm. The kitchen features a gas range, concrete countertops with glass inlays, and a beach motif tile backsplash--a subtle nod to the maritime surroundings. The large dining room invites gatherings, while the primary suite includes a private study/sitting room with an electric fireplace. The three additional bedrooms are thoughtfully set up to accommodate larger families and guests. Step outside to the front porch to enjoy sunset views over Myrtle Grove Sound. There's also plenty of covered parking and a large fenced backyard that's dog- and kid-friendly, with room to add a pool. Recent improvements--cement siding, wind rated windows and a metal roof--bring lasting value and help manage insurance costs. This home, which the locals know as Myrtle's Place, isn't your typical cookie-cutter beach home--it's a thoughtfully updated Carolina Beach classic full of charm, craftsmanship and coastal character. Move-in ready, this home is an equally suited as a primary residence, vacation getaway, or proven rental investment. It's already booking up with rentals for the summer season, so don't miss your chance to see it before it's gone!
