Welcome to Myrtle's Place — A Lovingly Restored Carolina Beach Cottage! There are beach houses—and then there are lovingly restored beach cottages like Myrtle's Place. If you're searching for a coastal charmer with proven rental history, don't miss this one-of-a-kind home just a block from the beach with beautiful water views of Myrtle Grove Sound. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath cottage blends vintage character with thoughtful modern updates. Offering nearly 1,600 SF of heated and cooled living space, plus an additional 200 SF enclosed sunroom and two covered porches, this home provides plenty of room for family and friends to spread out and unwind. Inside, you'll find LVP flooring, board-and-batten details and custom light fixtures that highlight the home's coastal charm. The kitchen features a gas range, concrete countertops with glass inlays, and a beach motif tile backsplash—a subtle nod to the maritime surroundings. The spacious dining room invites gatherings, while the primary suite includes a private study/sitting room with an electric fireplace—perfect for morning coffee or quiet reading and TV time. Step outside to the front porch to enjoy sunset views over Myrtle Grove Sound. There's also a large fenced backyard that's dog- and kid-friendly, and abundant covered parking—a rare perk this close to the shore. Plus, recent improvements —cement siding, wind rated windows and a metal roof—bring lasting value, boosting resilience and helping manage insurance costs. Myrtle's Place isn't your typical cookie-cutter beach home—it's a thoughtfully updated classic full of charm, craftsmanship, and coastal character. Offered furnished and move-in ready, this home is equally suited as a primary residence, vacation getaway, or proven rental investment. This one of a kind Carolina Beach gem and won't last long— book your showing today!
