This one-of-a-kind floating villa sits directly on the Cape Fear River in the heart of downtown Wilmington. You get impressive water vistas, peaceful mornings, and painless walking access to eateries, bars, live music, and events.
This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom houseboat comfortably sleeps up to 4 guests and is designed for both relaxation and convenience. Inside, you will find a bright, open layout, a full kitchen with everything you need, and comfortable living spaces across two levels.
Upstairs, savor a second living area and step out onto your private waterfront patio with an outdoor bar. It is the ideal spot for morning coffee, sunset drinks, or simply watching boats pass by.
The location is hard to beat. You are steps from the Wilmington Riverwalk, Port City Marina, the Convention Center, and Live Oak Bank Pavilion. Many of the best eateries, breweries, and attractions are within walking distance, so you can park once and appreciate your stay anxiety-complimentary.
Whether you are visiting for a weekend hideaway, a concert, or a longer stay, this property offers a really memorable experience on the water.
