Welcome to this magnificent southern charmer situated along the shores of Virginia Creek which connects directly to the Intracoastal Waterway and surrounded by breath-taking landscaping offering complete privacy. The property is tucked in and nicely secluded, allowing the owners to enjoy peace and quiet while sitting on their front porch. You will be blown away with the craftsmanship and detailed trim work with each step. As you enter the foyer, you will immediately notice white pine wooden floors installed throughout the entire main living area. A grand staircase is located in front of you and a formal dining room shielded by a crafted half wall and columns on your left. The gourmet kitchen offers solid wood custom cabinetry with a soft closing system which provides a wealth of storage space, a large working island with a gas cook-top and a glistening granite counter-top, stainless-steel appliances to include a double oven and two-drawer dishwasher and seam-less Corian counter-tops . This kitchen will please every chef and make any cooking experience much more enjoyable. The open concept connects the kitchen with the dining room and the living room. The large and bright living room welcomes you and feels as though it was made for cozy evenings around a fireplace with a nice glass of wine, reading your favorite author, playing family games, conducting deep conversations or just watching movies. The private Master Suite features a double vanity with additional storage, an oversized custom-tiled walk-in shower and multiple shower heads, a Jacuzzi tub, a linen closet and two walk-in closets. A laundry room with a shelf and storage cabinet also has a washer and a dryer ready for its new owners. A powder room with a coat closet complete the main level. Upstairs you can explore a nice loft, a large spare bedroom with a sitting area leading to a private balcony overlooking the water, a second spare bedroom with access to the attic and a full bathroom. Enjoy your Southern tea on your 300 sq.ft. screened-in porch while overlooking your backyard loaded with evergreens and perennial plants and watching wildlife passing by - an abundance of birds, butterflies, owls, turtles, bunnies and opossums. Get wild with your gardening skills, do some handy work in the oversized detached garage with a storage space or just simply grab a fishing pole, jump in a kayak at the end of your dock and get to some rip'n & grip'n. This property has it all! This home also features a brand-new roof (May 2026), freshly installed carpet, fresh paint, brand-new light fixtures, plantation shutters and the seller is offering a one-year home warranty. Looking for more fun and activities? Enjoy the community pool with a club house and tennis courts or take a short drive to the fabulous Kiwanis park. This property is Southern Living at its finest! The absolutely amazing location of this property is another attractive feature to consider. Situated near the sparkling Intracoastal Waterway with a public ramp, highly rated schools, shopping, restaurants, many golf courses, Topsail Island and Wrightsville beaches, and the city of Wilmington with a world class university, an international airport, a tremendously growing network of businesses, and a historic river district.
