About this home
Rare double lot in the heart of Carolina Beach, steps from the lake, ocean, and greenway trail. This oversized homesite is a blank canvas for renovation, teardown, or custom new construction in one of the area's most sought-after locations. The existing 2,110 sq ft home is sold as-is, but the real showstopper is the canopy of mature, majestic live oaks, a rarity this close to the beach. Opportunities like this don't come around often. Schedule your showing today.

Our take on 502 Fourth Street S
Written by the Buddy Blake Team from the listing photos and MLS data. Not part of the MLS listing or the listing broker's description.
This one-story single-family property in Carolina Beach offers 2,110 square feet on a 0.29-acre lot and was built in 1961. Everything is on one level, with the primary suite downstairs alongside the other two bedrooms and the property's two bathrooms. Carpet and laminate flooring run through the interior, and ceiling fans and blinds or shades are part of the setup.
Heating and cooling come from electric forced air with central air. A two-car garage provides parking, and the property is served by public utilities. It is not part of a subdivision, so the lot is not tied to any shared community amenities.
