About 501 E Spring St

Charming Downtown Fuquay-Varina Cottage with Proven Airbnb Income Potential! Ideally positioned on a corner lot in the heart of vibrant Downtown Fuquay-Varina, this charming 1940s cottage-style bungalow effortlessly blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Featuring three bedrooms and one full bath, the home showcases site-finished hardwood floors, tile in wet areas, updated windows, low-maintenance vinyl siding, and a newer roof. Over the years, the home has been carefully improved to enhance comfort and functionality — including an updated kitchen and bath, refinished hardwoods, a fenced yard, a full sewer line replacement from house to the main connection, and an impressive amount of closet space rarely found in homes of this era. The HVAC system has also been updated to ensure year-round efficiency and ease. Originally a personal residence and more recently operated as a high-performing Airbnb, this property offers exceptional flexibility for both investors and future homeowners. Whether you're looking for a turnkey short-term rental or a charming downtown home, the seller is open to selling fully furnished, making this a seamless option for move-in or income generation from day one. Listing agent has rental income history available upon request for interested buyers. All of this is just steps away from Fuquay-Varina's local parks, breweries, coffee shops, restaurants, and boutique shopping. With its walkable location, classic appeal, and strong rental track record, this is a rare opportunity in one of the Triangle's fastest-growing communities.
