You can stop looking--this is the one! This 3-bedroom, 3 full-bath quintessential beach cottage is a rare find. It showcases the perfect combination of modern upgrades/amenities while retaining its historic beach cottage charm. ''The Croom Cottage'' is a historically recognized property, located in the 500 block of Canal Drive, close to the Carolina Beach Boardwalk and downtown restaurants and amenities, and only one block from 2 public beach accesses! This beach cottage has been lovingly maintained and boasts many impressive upgrades/features including a new (2023) fortified architectural shingle roof; steel beams, piers and pier stabilizers added under the home to support/upgrade the foundation (2024); a new condensate pump and sump pump installed in the crawlspace (2024); and reflective foil radiant barrier and blown fiberglass insulation added in the attic (2022). Stunning historic pine flooring and plantation shutters add to the charming ambiance of this home. The beautifully updated kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, custom cabinetry (incl. a coffee/wine bar area), a pantry/laundry closet, and a bay-window dining area. The living room provides plenty of space to spread out and flows out to the full-width covered front porch, where you can relax with an evening cocktail and enjoy a beautiful sunset over the canal. Out back is a large deck with abundant entertaining space, including a built-in bar area. Two large guest bedrooms (one with an en-suite bath and walk-in closet) and a full guest bath complete the downstairs. Upstairs is a wonderful surprise: a private Master Suite with a fabulous en-suite bath with custom tile shower and dual-sink vanity--the perfect place to relax and unwind after a day at the beach. Being sold fully furnished, this classic cottage would make a perfect full-time beach home, 2nd home/beach getaway, or investment/rental. Start building your beach memories today.
