Boutique Historic Inn in the Heart of Carolina Beach. Rare opportunity to acquire a 12-unit historic inn just a short walk from the beach, restaurants, shops, and the Carolina Beach Boardwalk. This two-story property features fully furnished, pet-friendly guest rooms, each with a private bathroom, and includes all operational assets along with the established business. Recent improvements include a 2025 central HVAC system, a 2025 water heater, two 2025 Speed Queen stackable washer and dryer units, 2024 interior and exterior paint, and 2024 property signage throughout. The ground floor offers four one-bedroom suites, three with full kitchens and one with a kitchenette. Each suite includes comfortable living and dining areas, along with a private rear deck overlooking the partially fenced backyard. The second floor features eight efficiency rooms, four with access to the front porch. A shared hallway includes a guest refreshment station, while all upper-level rooms are equipped with mini refrigerators, microwaves, and Keurig coffee makers. The inn is marketed through major booking platforms, including Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, and its own direct-booking website. With no on-site office, the property operates as a self-check-in inn utilizing smart locks, providing owners with flexibility and streamlined day-to-day operations. While the property has undergone significant improvements, there remains additional potential for increased revenue through further upgrades and operational enhancements. All viewing parties must sign an NDA to access financial information. Visit the Carolina Beach Inn website to explore the property, then schedule a private showing to experience it in person.
