## Description

### Agent Description
If you've ever walked The Loop on Wrightsville Beach, you already know this cottage. Perched on its iconic corner lot, 2 W Henderson Street is one of those properties that makes people slow down, look twice, and wonder what it would be like to call it home. Known locally as ''Sand Crab Cottage,'' this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom coastal retreat has a presence that few beach properties can claim. The generous front porch practically commands you to sit down, breathe in the salt air, and let the island do what it does best. Inside, a vaulted great room with exposed ceiling beams sets a tone that is at once relaxed and refined. A large communal dining table anchors the space, flanked by comfortable seating and cheerful coastal details that give the home a warmth no staging could replicate. The main level features two king bedrooms sharing a full bath with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. Upstairs, a flexible guest room with two queen beds and its own full bath offers space for family, friends, or future rental guests. The kitchen is built for real cooking: gas range, generous prep space, and seamless flow to a shaded outdoor dining area made for long summer evenings. And then there's the location. A short walk to the beach. A short walk to Johnny Mercer's Pier. An easy stroll to shops and restaurants. Head to the far west end of Henderson Street and you'll find a landing with direct access to Banks Channel. The beloved Little Free Library on the corner has become a neighborhood landmark in its own right. This is not just a house on Wrightsville Beach. This is the one people remember.
