About this property

OCEAN VIEWS, EXCEPTIONAL FLOOR PLAN & PROVEN RENTAL PERFORMANCE! Just one block from the beach and minutes from the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, marina, dining and shopping, this fully furnished five-bedroom, six-bath townhome offers exceptional space, views and versatility. Designed for large groups yet comfortable enough for intimate getaways, the home sleeps up to 16, balancing personal enjoyment for owners with established short-term rental performance. The reverse floor plan places three bedrooms and the laundry room on the first level, with the primary suite and fifth bedroom on the second and the main living spaces on the top floor. Private bedroom balconies and thoughtful touches, including ensuite bathrooms, bedroom alcoves with writing desks and a chaise lounge in the primary suite, create inviting spaces to relax. An elevator, durable LVP flooring, zoned HVAC and an efficient electric tankless water heater complement the home's thoughtful design. The top-floor living area captures expansive ocean views and gives large groups plenty of room to gather, with dining seating for 12, a spacious sectional and additional chairs. The sleek white kitchen features high-end stainless appliances, including an induction range. There's plenty of counter space and a large island with seating for five plus a pantry and a wet bar with wine chiller. The living room opens to a covered porch and connects to the secluded rooftop deck via an enclosed staircase, extending the living space outdoors for sunbathing, stargazing and taking in sunrises over the ocean or sunsets across the sound. Fully furnished and equipped for vacation rentals, the home is ready for 2027 bookings. Gross rental revenue totaled $76,000 from May through September 2026 for Unit 1, while Units 1 and 2 together generated approximately $150,000 during the same period. Parking accommodates up to seven vehicles. 404 Canal #2 is also available, creating the opportunity to purchase both units together. Whether you envision this as your family's Carolina Beach retreat, a high-performing vacation rental, or both, this property deserves a closer look. Come see the views, the space and the possibilities!
