Room details
You'll never regret moving to the beach house... But you WILL regret it if you don't.
Here is your home just steps from the Atlantic ocean and only 20 minutes from Wilmington, NC! We're leasing out individual bedrooms/suites within our single family home starting August 1, 2025. It is currently on the active airbnb short term rental market, but we will be changing this house from short term to longer term rental starting August 1, 2025. We can offer month to month options (for slightly higher rates than listed below), or up to 3 or 6 month leases at a time (3 months would be a slightly higher rental fee than listed below), though we prefer a 6 month lease to start with. After the 6 months is up, you can either move out, we can move to month-to-month (at a slightly higher monthly rate) or renew the 6 month lease.
This is a RARE single-family rental on the island of Carolina Beach. It's a 4 Bedroom, 3.5 bath house with a 5 minute walk to the ocean, right on Ocean Blvd. It could be ideal for a travel nurse, a local college student (MUST BE RESPONSIBLE -- SO MAYBE A GRAD STUDENT), a young person just completing college, who has a job.
Our 24 year old senior in college is moving back from Utah and will be moving in to the upstairs Master suite. He needs 3 Housemates! This house is very special to us. We lived here for the last 2.5 years, and living in Carolina Beach, aka Pleasure Island, is truly a privilege. We loved walking down to the water each day and watching the early bird surfers, getting up all winter long! Our son even donned a wetsuit and tried it out for himself several times! This house would be perfect for someone who loves to surf. Or just laid back people who wanna be by the sea and are good with living with a 24 year old senior in college (studying computer science and artificial intelligence engineering) at Indiana University...
ACCOMODATIONS:
There are 2 smaller single-Queen guest bedrooms upstairs (1 of which is already spoken for by another tenant), which share a Jack and Jill bathroom with shared full shower and bath, separate sinks and shared toilet with privacy door that locks. We are looking for a female tenant to rent out the still-available smaller bedroom.
There is also a large downstairs Master Bedroom that is available. This room actually has 2 Queen beds, and a large closet and en suite bathroom that is only a shower, but we can remove 1 of the beds to make more room. It is a very private space and only requires 1 set of stairs, as the kitchen is on the same floor as this suite.
All rooms including shared public space (downstairs shower, kitchen, living room, laundry room, screened porch, front and back porches) are furnished and decorated in beachy themes. Each bedroom has a smart-TV with options to sign into all of the media apps. Furniture in the bedrooms have the option of being removed if tenants want to bring their own, however, furniture in common areas must remain. The living room has gas logs which keep the house nice and toasty all winter. All kitchenware is provided and twice a month we even send a cleaning crew in to get the place spic and span (included in rent)!!
This is truly a "show up with your suitcase and maybe a laptop computer and move in" situation. Rent will be all-inclusive, as long as the utilities bills remain reasonable.
FEES (for a 6 month lease):
Security Deposit: (Subject to change depending on circumstances) 1 month's rent.
* Smaller upstairs bedroom which shares a Jack and Jill bathroom with other small bedroom: $1,100 per month, not including security deposit (this price is for a 6 month lease. Shorter term leases are a little more per month).
* Downstairs Master Double Queen with en suite bathroom and shower: $1,250 per month, not including security deposit (this price is for a 6 month lease. Shorter term leases are a little more per month).
These prices are ALL INCLUSIVE OF EVERYTHING, FROM RENT TO UTILITIES TO INTERNET, AND EVEN A CLEANING CREW TWICE A MONTH!
We have a fenced in backyard with a big grassy area, a large gas grill, a fire pit and a giant generator in case the power goes out. Each tenant will have 1 parking space and there is enough room on the front lawn for 2 or 3 additional cars (so guests can come visit).
