This home is perfect as an easy to maintain primary home or a proven revenue generating Airbnb rental (2019 Gross Rental Income $38,062). Very well maintained over the years, this home was freshly updated in 2018 with tile floors throughout the living, kitchen, and hallway bath, including bamboo floors in all three bedrooms and the master bath. New interior paint and HVAC in 2019. Brand new decks in 2020. Front and back of the house includes generous size decks, plus a large 200 sq ft sunroom with wrap around insulated windows that make for enjoyable hang out area in all seasons. Outdoor shower, laundry room, and separate storage area can be found off carport. SSCA (Southern Shores Civic Association) owns the land directly behind the property with large open green area on a lake, perfect for outdoor activities. The property is located in a very private setting in the Town of Southern Shores which has numerous beach accesses, beach parking, marina with boat ramp, nearby parks, tennis courts, and much more.
