INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY WITH DETACHED INCOME-PRODUCING ADU! 5050 Wrightsville Avenue offers a unique opportunity, with O&I zoning for home or business, featuring a renovated 3-bedroom, 1-bath main residence PLUS a separate detached ADU that is already tenant-occupied and producing $900 per month in rental income.
The main residence has undergone substantial renovations, including new LVP flooring throughout, fresh interior paint, new HVAC, new appliances, new countertops, and a renovated bathroom. Both the main residence and detached ADU received new roofs in 2022.
The detached ADU is a major feature of this property, providing existing rental income from day one. The ADU has its own water and sewer connections and is currently leased at $900 per month, creating an attractive opportunity for an investor or an owner-occupant looking to offset housing expenses with rental income.
Situated on approximately 0.44 acres with O&I zoning, the property also offers a large yard and ample off-street parking. Documentation regarding the ADU's legal nonconforming residential status is available.
Whether purchased as an investment property or as a primary residence with supplemental rental income, or as a place for your business, the separate income-producing ADU provides flexibility that is difficult to find in this Wilmington location.
Convenient access to UNCW, Wrightsville Beach, shopping, restaurants, and downtown Wilmington.
MAIN HOUSE + DETACHED ADU + EXISTING $900/MONTH ADU RENTAL INCOME.
