302 Canal Dr

A low-rise beachfront condominium built in 1983, the four-story complex contains primarily two-bedroom units laid out for seasonal or year-round living. Architecture is plain coastal vernacular with balconies and end-unit corner exposures that maximize cross-views to the ocean and adjacent canal. Interiors commonly include furnished turnkey packages, open living/dining areas, two full baths, stacked washer/dryer hookups, ceiling fans, and modernized kitchens and baths in many units following recent renovations. Shared facilities are modest: a communal swimming pool, cluster mailboxes, outdoor showers, assigned covered parking (typically two spaces for select units) and individual storage closets. The property’s exterior maintenance has seen periodic upgrades such as fiber cement siding and refreshed paint; there is no elevator. Pet policies and professional on-site management vary by unit; condo fees cover routine maintenance and many utilities. Located on the central Carolina Beach strip, the building sits directly across from public beach access, adjacent to the municipal marina and within easy walking distance of the boardwalk, restaurants, entertainment, and shopping, creating a compact seaside lifestyle focused on convenience and rental potential.
