Situated in the heart of the storied Holden Beach, this charming coastal cottage offers a refreshing sea breeze for a genuine island living experience. Ideal for those seeking either a permanent home or a secondary residence with potential for short-term rental income, this property caters to both needs perfectly. The home features an inverted floor plan that maximizes living and kitchen space, ensuring ample room for relaxation and entertainment. Recreation opportunities abound with both the intracoastal waterway and the Atlantic Ocean beach strand just steps away. Not only does this home boast an enviable location, but it also demonstrates solid financial performance, having been part of a short-term rental program for the past three years. For those aiming for a higher return on investment, adding a pool to the spacious backyard could further elevate the rental income. Recent enhancements aimed at increasing the property’s value include the addition of two new HVAC systems, LVP flooring, composite decking on the rear stairs, a new hot water heater (all completed in 2020), a metal roof installed in 2017, and new carpeting in 2023. Completing this attractive package is the property’s proximity to Holden’s commercial district. Here, markets, restaurants, boat ramps, and parks are just a short stroll away.
