This is the lower level, street facing unit of a brand new construction duplex. It is a completely separate unit with its own entrance and a comfortable yet luxury feel. The interior is modern with an open living space and a constructed-in electric fireplace. Less than a mile to the Live Oak Bank Pavilion and just a few blocks to all that downtown has to offer. The entire duplex was just constructed in 2024 and is ready to host you whether you're looking for adventure or relaxation!

This is a brand new home in Wilmington's Historic District--a rare find! The interior is modern with an open living space and a constructed-in electric fireplace. This unit can sleep a max. of 4, but unless there are kids or petite adults it is most cozy with 2 or 3. It is a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom unit with a pull out couch in the living area (slightly bigger than a twin) along with a convertible accent chair (slightly smaller than a twin). It has its own kitchen with a refrigerator/freezer, sink, dishwasher, stove, oven, microwave, & coffee maker. Essentials like plates, cups, cookware, silverware, & paper towels will be included for your use. Note that the bathroom is connected to the bedroom, so if guests sleeping on the pull out couch need to use the bathroom in the nighttime, they will need to access the bathroom by walking through the bedroom. This unit is one story and faces the street with its own private entrance. The other unit is two stories and has a separate entrance on the side of the home, however the walkway runs from the very front of the home down the whole south side and you may hear or see other guests walking to their entrance.

ADDITIONAL INFO:
We welcome guests of all backgrounds! However, due to prior disrespectful renters and property damage, we will only be accepting booking requests from:
--Users who are "verified" and who already have positive reviews from other hosts.
--Renters that are above the age of 21.
--Renters who are not bringing family pets.


***There is no dedicated parking. There is complimentary street parking that is available on a first come, first served basis. We know it looks like there's a driveway for parking, but please keep us on the Historical District's good side and refrain from parking there and park in the street only. Please lock your cars and take any valuables with you.

***The bedroom shares the back wall and the ceiling with the other unit in the duplex, which means you may hear guests above you and behind you if it is occupied during your stay. We’ve supplied sound makers in the bedroom in case this is bothersome. We kindly ask that guests in both units are mindful of peaceful hours as not to disturb others. If guests in the other unit are being far too loud, please let us know and we will address that with them immediately.

***The fireplace color and heat settings can be controlled via remote or on the touch panel of the fireplace itself. Instructions are in the welcome binder. Feel complimentary to take advantage of all it has to offer and create the ambiance that suits you best! Please remember to turn it off when not in use or if it's not being monitored to conserve energy and for safety reasons.

***If you are bringing infants/babies, the units are NOT infant-proofed. (Furnishings is NOT secured to walls, outlet blockers are NOT supplied, cabinets/drawers are NOT locked, etc.) You assume responsibilities for all guests.

***There are many fashionable eateries and attractions within a mile, including the Live Oak Bank Pavilion and all that the Riverwalk and Front Street have to offer. If you have any specific questions or concerns, please feel complimentary to reach out prior to booking.

Rental property booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, shift your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many rental management companies supply Southport area travel guides which often include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose your dates and budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Downtown Bliss, Walk Everywhere! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking websites. If not, call the property manager before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine what is suitable for your family.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Does your family require specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your visit, record any problem areas during check in. Speak to the rental manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• At departure, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
