BACK ON MARKET, no fault of the seller!
Welcome to 542 Brunswick Street in the charming waterfront community of Sunset Harbor, where coastal living meets versatility and opportunity.
INVESTORS take note, this home is priced BELOW a recent private appraisal amount, adding instant hard-to-find value! NOT in a HOA!
As you arrive at this inviting property, the first thing you'll notice is its warm Southern charm, highlighted by two spacious covered front porches that stretch across the front of the home. These porches create the perfect setting for slow coastal mornings with coffee, breezy afternoons with friends, or peaceful evenings listening to the sounds of nature drifting in from the nearby water.
Step inside and you'll immediately appreciate the thoughtful layout of this two-story home designed for flexibility.
The upper level provides a living space with a full kitchen, a bedroom, and a versatile office or den that could easily serve as a flex room, hobby space, or home workspace. The first floor is set-up as a family suite with a small kitchen, bedroom, and office/den, providing a fully functional second living area ideal for tenants, extended family, or visiting guests.
Currently, tenant-occupied, with renters who would love the opportunity to stay, making this property an appealing option for investors seeking immediate rental income.
Beyond the home itself, the location places you in the heart of Sunset Harbor's relaxed coastal lifestyle. Just minutes away, you'll find boat ramps, marinas, and easy access to the water, perfect for boating, fishing, and enjoying life along North Carolina's beautiful coast.
Nearby historic Southport offers charming waterfront streets, local restaurants, boutique shopping, and vibrant community events that make this area such a beloved coastal destination.
Whether you're searching for an income-producing investment property, a flexible multi-generational home, or a coastal retreat with room to grow, 542 Brunswick Street offers the rare combination of location, versatility, and relaxed coastal living.
