The ADU is being sold fully furnished, creating a true turn-key short-term rental opportunity for the next owner. These units have built an incredible reputation on Airbnb, earning over 1,150 five-star reviews and ranking in the top 5% of Airbnb properties globally, while generating over $56,000 in annual revenue.

The main bungalow offers classic charm with spacious living areas and timeless character, while the detached ADU provides modern convenience for guests or tenants. Located just minutes from Downtown Wilmington, ILM Airport, and a variety of local shopping and dining options, this property offers exceptional convenience for both residents and visitors. The Princess Place neighborhood also features a community park, adding to the appeal of this well-established and centrally located area.
