Cozy cottage with hot tub, private yard and close to everything in Wilmington

Located in historic Sunset Park in beautiful Wilmington, North Carolina, the cottage started its life in the early 1940's as a single room fishing shack that was constructed on the north end of Carolina Beach, about 20 minutes away. Years later the house was moved to its current location and a small addition and bathroom were added making the house a grand total of 600 sq ft (tiny house living at it's best!). Eventually the house became home to WM Register, a tug boat captain that worked his days on the Cape Fear River, and his wife, Gladys, hence the name Capt.'s Cottage.

This little house has lots of character in a small space and it's the very last of the old fishing shacks that dotted the NC coast a hundred years ago when the only way to reach Carolina Beach was by train from the "mainland of Wilmington.
