This is an unusual opportunity. My property is 5-star rated on Airbnb. The best place to read and look at the house is a Google search for The Lighthouse Cottage, Albemarle Beach. If you send me an email or text message, I will send you all the information from Airbnb about the property. The house was updated last year to be an Airbnb/VRBO. Numerous updates and improvements were made to the house at that time. Look at the house location on the map. Also, look at the photographs. If you have thought about downsizing, are just starting out, or just need a furnished space, this home might be your perfect choice. Available early September 2025. It may be seen now. Pet-Friendly, fully furnished 4-bedroom 3-bath 2148 square foot Home. Quiet and Peaceful Getaway is available for long-term rentals. If you need less than 12 months, ask me about it.
It has a 55-inch Smart TV. The home has 2 working fireplaces inside. One of the working fireplaces has a Hatteras wood-burning stove. It also has a glass room with a grill and an outside fireplace. The glass room square footage is not included in the 2148 heated and cooled square footage. The house is located in Washington County, NC, close to Edenton, Plymouth, Windsor, Columbia, the original Washington, and the Outer Banks of North Carolina. It has a fenced-in yard for pets. I have water views, but I do not have water access at the house. There are many places for water access within 1-2 miles. Excellent neighbors. The area is great for hunting, fishing, paddle sports, and wildlife viewing. The home has everything that you would need to move in with just the clothes on your back and your personal items. My wife and I love this home. We live 400 miles away in the NC mountains and would like to give someone else the opportunity to love it.
The tenant is responsible for all utilities and mowing. I can provide contract mowing for an additional $50 per mowing.
