The Casita has a darling compact and complete kitchen. It comes equipped with an open window bar featuring a striking bar top crafted from River Cypress, that was reclaimed from the bottom of the Cape Fear River and lovingly restored. I appreciate the secret pocket door that separates the kitchen from the hall way .
In the hallway area, you will find beach equipment (towels, chairs, umbrella and sunblock ).
There is a living room area with a appreciate seat, coffee table, media shelving and a " fold out to a twin bed" ottoman. The Casita has Intelligent TV. The Casita has a big storage closet and an armoire, to help organize your "new" home.
The bathroom is designed to showcase the rustic Southwestern ambiance and features a bespoke glass shower wall .
The Bedroom area features a Nectar Mattress the Guests rave above and fresh duvets and sheets to ensure a restful experience. A black out curtain pulls out from behind the armoire. Historic wooden beams from the Architectural Salvage Store 'Legacy' divide the living area from the bedroom area.
Guests can savor the mild beach town climate al fresco on the front patio at the bistro table for breakfast or coffee or on the screened back deck patio with festive string lighting, perhaps while appreciating a glass of wine.
This ground floor apartment is all yours with no shared spaces. You enter on the side of the Casita with a key coded lock entry. My backyard garden is open to you for your enjoyment. Right outside the entry door in the adjacent garden, a four man hot tub is available to guests of the Casita and the Carriage House. A fire table and screen deck are right behind the Casita for open air enjoyment of all 4 seasons.
The Casita is a ground floor apartment and the Carriage House is located above the Casita. Between the two apartments there is a noise diffusing floor underlayment and there is a noise machine and 2 fans, as well as a dehumidifier to ensure that noise does not interfere with your calming environment.
The Casita is located in the Princess Place neighborhood along side Burnt Mill Creek. The coastal creek side walk can be accessed off of Princess Place Road behind the Photography Studio. Coastal birds and wildlife abound. Alligators and turtles bask on the opposite bank on warm days. Egrets, Herons, Owls and Anhingas delight bird watchers.
It is a mile and 3/4 to the downtown board walk and Market Street, Chestnut or Princess Street offer a breathtaking walking opportunity to those inclined to tour the city on foot. Wrightsville Beach is 7 miles away and is particularly nice off season. Watersport's and land adventures make Wilmington an adventure destination. The weather is rather mild in the winter with the weather falling in the 60's (F) on most days.
Wilmington has a plethora of dining opportunities from local seafood to ethnic cuisine. Wilmington has also become well known for its coffee stores and breweries. I appreciate the Ghost tours downtown, so much history in addition to digging up the past ! Antiques shoppers adore Castle Street. If you can work from home or are happily retired there is no reason to suffer through ice and snow when you an appreciate all Wilmington has to offer and the Casita warmly welcomes you.
The Casita was designed in 2022 and reclaimed materials were used predominantly. The host has over 8 years experience and has 1000 +reviews with a 4.99 star rating on another trendy short term rental website, that some are boycotting. Interested in a long term rental? I am retired from a medical research career and live with my 5 cats and French Bull Dog Gomez in the main home, on the property, and happily assist the guests with recommendations and any questions . I happy to discuss prices that would be cost effective and mutually beneficial.
