About this property

Historic Condo in the Heart of Downtown Elizabeth City

Enjoy the vibes of city living in a quaint, historic town, also known as the “Harbor of Hospitality”! This building was built in the 1920's & boasts original hardwood floors & exposed brick walls. You cannot beat the location of this VRBO—it’s in the heart of downtown Elizabeth City & just steps away from great restaurants, shops, & bars. It’s also one block from the waterfront! Enjoy your stay in this rare 2BR/1BA condo that was decorated by a local design company. 45 min drive to OBX & VA!

This is 2BR/1BA condo that has been decorated beautifully. It is has a fully-stocked kitchen as well as a laundry room with a washer and dryer. There is a separate area in the main living space that has an L-shaped desk, perfect for guests who are traveling for work and need a place for their laptop. The wifi code will be provided to guests during check-in. The living room is decorated beautifully, with a large couch, accent chair, and ottomans. Enjoy the 55' smart TV with YouTube TV that is accessible to all guests. If guests have their own login for other apps such as Netflix or Hulu, they can login with their own credentials . The dining area boasts an 8 foot table with benches. It can comfortably fit 6 but can seat up to 8 with two additional accent chairs that are used in the condo for additional seating. Enjoy the custom bar that was made for this space as well! The master bedroom has a king bed and the guest bedroom has a queen bed. Both also have dressers for storage and access to the closets. Enjoy the sunset view out of the windows that overlook Poindexter Street in downtown Elizabeth City. The bathroom has two separate vanities and a large shower/tub.

Make sure to check out the newest excursion in the Albemarle Area—“Harbor Towns Cruises”! There are currently 2 ferry boats that can transport you to other charming towns via the local waterways. A dinner boat is coming later this year (2024). Check out their website for additional information!

This is a private condominium, with several other residential units. There are no shared amenities for the building, only shared common areas that include the lobby and the stairwells. Our lovely historic building was also built in the 1920’s and has many original features—with that, it lacks some of the insulation that we are used to today. This means that you may hear neighbors above or beside you occasionally. You might also hear cars drive by outside. To reduce any noises for lighter sleepers, we have an industrial fan and also provide ear plugs/eye masks during your stay.

Excellent Downtown Condo with Character

We really enjoyed our stay at this Elizabeth City condo. Excellent location. Easy walk to downtown restaurants and shops. The host provided clear directions for parking and accessing the property. The condo was very clean, comfortable, and well furnished. We usually stay at hotels when we are in the area, and this condo was a welcome change! We hope we can stay there again on our next visit.

Great space. Will stay again.

We needed a place within an hour of Norfolk, VA airport due to early morning flight out. Was less than an hour to get to the north end of Outer Banks with plenty to see along the way. There’s a restaurant and bar right across the street and coffeehouse two blocks away.

A True Harbor of Hospitality

Elizabeth City's motto is "The Harbor of Hospitality", which you will truly experience staying here. Mrs. Bradbury is prompt and clear with her communication with you through the entire process from booking to your stay to checking out. The condo is inviting and chic. Its location is optimal for exploring the Waterfront experience, through its local shops, restaurants, parks, and breweries. I will certainly be seeking to rent from Mrs. Bradbury again on my next trip through the Harbor of Hospitality.

Visiting Family

We have visited Elizabeth City over the past 3 years or so to see family.Staying downtown is a favorite.This unit was spacious,and unique.We loved the location in proximity to everything! There are some street noise as you should expect staying downtown.It did not bother us,because we anticipated it. The property manager could not have been better.Reaching out to make sure we had all of the information we needed.It was a perfect experience!

About the host

Hosted by Taylor Bradbury

Host profile image
I am from this lovely area! I am not local now, but have local assistance, should you need anything. Although I am a few hours away, my heart loves this part of the state because of its rich history and beautiful scenery. There is nothing quite like a northeastern North Carolina sunset!

Why they chose this property

There are so many incredible small business owners in downtown Elizabeth City. This neighborhood allows you to experience their many talents—whether it be culinary, arts, or a creative shopping experience!

What makes this property unique

The location and historic nature set this VRBO apart from others. You cannot beat the walkability to restaurants, shops, entertainment, and the waterfront! Accommodations have been modernized and tastefully done, but still allow you to take a step back in time with original hardwood floors and exposed brick walls, circa 1920!
