Property Description

Amenity-rich and income-primed, 137 Fourth Avenue N is the kind of Kure Beach property that guests return to year after year and investors search for but rarely find. Just a few blocks from the ocean and the pier, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is loaded with the features that drive premium nightly rates and top-tier reviews: a private inground pool, a hot tub, a second living room upstairs, and a dedicated workshop that sets this property apart from every competing rental on the island. Solar panels slash operating costs and increase your net returns from day one. New HVAC unit and thermostats installed May 31, 2026. A tangible advantage in the STR market where utility expenses eat directly into cash flow. The flexible second floor living room creates natural separation for larger groups and multigenerational families, unlocking the extended-stay and large-group rental segments that command the highest nightly rates on platforms like Airbnb and VRBO. Step outside and the neighborhood delivers everything a guest could want. Kure Beach's local parks and recreation areas are close at hand, while Fort Fisher State Recreation Area -home to Civil War landmarks, pristine natural beaches, and the NC Aquarium is just a short drive away and a perennial guest favorite. The Fort Fisher-Southport Ferry offers a scenic, memorable crossing that adds a genuine adventure to any stay. Good Hops Brewing is close by for a cold craft beer after a beach day, and Carolina Beach is packed with restaurants, nightlife, the boardwalk, and Freeman Park just minutes away. Guests do not run out of things to do, and that translates directly into longer bookings and stronger reviews. Kure Beach STR inventory is looking to add properties with a pool, hot tub, and outdoor entertainment space at this proximity to the water. These are the first to book and the last to sit vacant. For the investor running the numbers or the buyer who wants a property that more that helps pay for itself, 137 Fourth Avenue N makes a compelling case. Projected rental income analysis available upon request. The adjacent property at 133 N 4th Avenue is also available for sale, presenting a unique opportunity for multi-generational living, expanded space, or an investment-focused coastal portfolio.
