Owner's Map of Kure Beach
I had a desk job in Milwaukee for 25 years, retired at age 48, and moved to Wilmington. I bought my first oceanfront lot in 1992 for $75,000, and designed a duplex especially for the weekly rental market, and built it. Demand was terrific, and the renters were terrific. It was the start of a career. I built Beachlady in the last half of 2003 and first half of 2004.... it is the fourth oceanfront rental property I built, and its the best.
