Located 32 miles off North Carolina’s coast is a very secluded bed-and-breakfast. The Frying Pan Tower, an old coast guard tower, is now up for grabs at the starting price of $10,000.
The platform was installed by the Coast Guard in the 1960s as a light station, a more permanent structure to replace a ship and buoy that reminded boaters to move carefully through the hazardous area of Cape Fear.
It was retired in 2004, and the current owner, Richard Neal, bought the property from the U.S. government in 2010. He then made it into a bed-and-breakfast that contains eight rooms. It is not necessarily easy to get to since you have to either reserve a seat on a helicopter or charter a boat, but if you are looking for some alone time, this might be the perfect spot for you to buy.
