Sea breezes and sun in historic old town Beaufort, a block from the water!

Bright, cozy, and convenient cottage on a quiet street just a block away from Taylor Creek in the Beaufort historic district, with off-street parking. A short walk from shopping and great bars/restaurants on Front St., or take a stroll to the end of the street for swimming and fishing at the public dock! Very convenient to ferries that will take you to the beaches of Cape Lookout, Shackleford Banks, or Carrot Island.

Enjoy the sea breeze on the front porch swing or bask in the sunshine of the spacious fenced back yard. The house boasts an airy, open floor plan with reclaimed pine floors, a freshly renovated (2020) bathroom, well-appointed kitchen, spacious dining and living spaces with a wood-burning stove, and a sunny & quiet office space in the back of the house. Each of the three bedrooms features a queen-sized bed.

Cozy coastal getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the picturesque seaside town of Beaufort, North Carolina. We enjoyed easy access to Atlantic Beach and Fort Macon. We appreciated the great restaurant recommendations from our host. The house was so quiet at night and the beds were very comfortable.

Loved our stay in Beaufort!

Lee's home is awesome. Our youngest fondly called it the Blue House :) It's super spacious and had everything we needed to enjoy our time in Beaufort. This was our first time visiting and the location is perfect for walking to the water, restaurants, and shopping. We definitely want to return!

Wonderful long weekend!

Property was clean, close to everything we wanted to do, and owners were great to work with. Would highly recommend for a getaway weekend.

Great stay & super host!

This well equipped and tastefully appointed bungalow was the perfect stay for us in Beaufort. Great location within walking distance to Front St. shopping and eating. Comfortable beds, a well stocked kitchen, a modern bathroom and modern conveniences allowed me to work remotely in an emergency situation. Lee was very accommodating in making some adjustments to our stay on short notice. Highly recommend and plan on returning.

Fantastic location!

Very clean, cute cottage! Communication with Lee was excellent and they accommodated a quick booking which was appreciated. It’s a lovely walk to the water and downtown for meals/coffee. We did see the horses across the creek! Two suggestions are additional fans in each bedroom and bedside/bedroom lamps. Great spot!

Lovely home

This home is the perfect base for a trip to Beaufort. All the necessities were there plus the comforts of home. The front porch is perfect for morning coffee and afternoon leisure time. It is an easy walk to the nearby shops and restaurants of Beaufort, as well as nearby attractions such as Atlantic Beach, Ft. Macon State Park and other activities. Lee is the perfect host, promptly responding to our questions and accommodating all of our needs. We plan to return to this home in the fall on our next trip to Beaufort.

Love this home

This was our second stay at this charming Beaufort home and it did not disappoint. Mornings and evenings relaxing on the front porch with our drink of choice and a good book or great conversation. Several afternoons included an easy walk to the Gordon Street dock to enjoy a peaceful swim. The house is the perfect location to walk to the many activities the town offers or just to enjoy an afternoon stroll viewing the many surrounding historic homes. The kitchen was very well stocked with numerous high quality pots & pans, many spices and other essentials. Beds were very comfortable. In general, any supplies necessary were at our disposal. Lee was very accommodating and we will definitely reserve this home for any future Beaufort, NC trips.

Relaxing getaway

Well equipped comfortable cottage around the corner from everything. Beaufort is a very interesting historic town. We began our time visiting the Old Burying Ground. Restaurants were nice. We saw dolphins out of the window from our seat at Front Street Grill. Spent a lot of time walking up and down the historic streets looking at the beautiful old homes. Cru Coffee in the morning is a great way to start and less than 10 minutes walking. There are boats that are easily chartered to the scenic spots. We enjoyed the wild horses right there on Carrot Island. Lee was very attentive to our arrival and departure. There were no issues with the well kept home. Quiet street! Friendly neighbors all around. My favorite moments were morning coffee on the porch. Watched Netflix on big screen at night. Super place to get away and relax. Affordable and accessible
