About this home
A rare opportunity to own a 2-unit building WALKIG DISTANCE to Live Oak amphitheater & all the best downtown attractions. The property next door at 810 N 5th just SOLD for $1,042,000....808 N 5th has same number of bedrooms & bathrooms. 808 N 5th also has much more off-street parking, big backyard & Unit # 1 is already fully furnished! Yet, we are priced significantly lower than the sale price for property next door! Great 1031 opportunity! Huge cash flow opportunities. Many options: Live in one unit & Airbnb one. Or rent both. Many beautiful renovations were just completed at 808 N 5th including: A completely NEW KITCHEN with HUGH QUARTZ ISLAND, new cabinets, backsplash, pendant lighting, new appliances, all freshly refinished hardwood floors, new bathrooms with new vanities, lighting, fixtures , floors, & many more renovations. Unit #1 is fully furnished! It's a ''TURKEY AIRBNB'' ready to go. It's nicely furnished & has everything you need. Easy to show... Come see all the new renovation...
OUTSTANDING LOCATION in the Brooklyn Arts District, walking distance to all great downtown amenities: restaurants, concert venues, Riverwalk, Cape Fear Community College, parks marinas, breweries , the social district, etc... Built in the early 2000s these units have all the modern features that newer properties offer like open floor plans & suites w/ baths. Unlike many other downtown homes that are over 100 years old, & have many ''old house'' problems, this one was built in the 2000s to modern building codes & standards. VERY LOW MAINTENANCE 2-unit property. Each unit has 3 bedrooms & 2 baths. Some highlights include new kitchen, quartz countertops, new vanities, refinished hardwoods, new lighting, tons of off-street parking, a giant Charleston-Style Porch, suites w/ baths/ walk-in closets, tons of off-street parking, hardwood & LVP flooring, no carpet, full laundry room, an opportunity to build a detached garage, an amazing porch that looks down beautiful tree-lined 5th Ave & a big backyard! This property was designed & built as a modern 2-unit building. This is NOT like many other homes downtown that were single-family homes, an ''cut-up / converted'' into 2 awkward units. This was built as a 2-unit building. As mentioned, the home next door sold for $1,042,000. Many options are available with this 2-unit building. Unit #1 fully ready to go Airbnb! A similar, actively managed Airbnb single unit on the street grossed over $48,000 in a prior year! Just for one unit. Current owner had a medium-term rental in Unit #1 for $3500 per month before all the recent renovations. So, it has even more potential now! Unit #2 has active cash flow.
