Owner's Profile

Why the Owner Chose Kure Beach
Kure Beach and the Wilmington area is fantastic. Wilmington is such a cool city with tons of restaurants and so much to do. Kure Beach and Carolina Beach are lovely vacation spots, with just enough "touristy" stuff to keep you happy without the area feeling tacky and overbuilt. The beaches here are magnificent, the people are friendly, and there is lovely weather year-round. We hope to retire to our cute little cottage in the future.
The Unique Benefits of this House
This cottage is the essence of rest, relaxation, and happiness. When we were looking at properties to buy, we saw magnificent huge homes and condos. Yet the second we walked into the cottage, it was love at first sight. My son said, "This is it. We don't need to look any more." We hope you will feel as enamored of this restful little cottage as we are.
