Built by Northway Homes, 824 Hanover is a from-the-studs new build in the Brooklyn Arts District — modern finishes, a real front porch, and downtown Wilmington’s restaurants, riverfront, and music venues just minutes away.
It is the rare home that reads two ways at once. As a residence, it is low-maintenance, light-filled, and finished in a calm modern palette. As an investment, its walkable downtown location and turnkey condition make it a standout short-term rental. Either way, the work is done — no renovation, no deferred maintenance, just move in.
Wilmington is one of the Southeast’s strongest coastal-tourism rental markets, and short-term rental is fully allowed here. A brand-new, professionally finished home a short walk from downtown is exactly the kind of property that performs — the projections below reflect the upper end of what a home like this can produce.
Short-term rental is allowed in Wilmington. Following the 2022 Schroeder ruling, the city no longer enforces a rental cap, lottery, distance rule, or registration requirement — a far friendlier backdrop than most coastal towns.
New construction means no renovation and no deferred maintenance — just the modern finishes guests expect. Furnish it, list it, and it’s earning, with builder warranties standing behind every system.
Figures are projections based on third-party market data for comparable Wilmington short-term rentals and represent a strong-performance scenario, not a guarantee of income. Actual results depend on furnishing, management, seasonality, and market conditions.
824 Hanover sits in the Brooklyn Arts District — a short walk or quick drive from the Cape Fear riverfront, the restaurants and live music of downtown, and everything that makes Wilmington one of the coast’s most-visited towns. Wrightsville Beach is about fifteen minutes east.
The first floor runs open from the front porch straight through to the back deck — living, dining, and kitchen in one bright volume under nine-foot ceilings, crown molding, and wide-plank LVP that wears like a rental should. Big double-hung windows on three sides keep it sun-filled all day.
Shaker cabinetry, quartz counters, a full subway-tile backsplash, and stainless appliances frame a center island with seating for three. Twin pantry closets and a dedicated dining zone under a statement chandelier mean it hosts as easily as it lives.
Upstairs, the primary suite carries a coffered tray ceiling and its own door onto the covered second-floor balcony. The en-suite bath is finished in the same modern palette — a double vanity, framed mirrors, and matte-black fixtures throughout.
