Description

Rare find! Enjoy access to a boat ramp within half a mile from home at Harbour Village for a low annual fee, plus very low HOA fees. This home was a Southern Living Design Home when built in the '90s and was featured in Southern Living Magazine. Welcome home to this hidden gem in the desirable community of Olde Point. The curb appeal of this well-built, single-level, brick-and-cedar home is exceptional. It offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths with an impressive layout. Step into the foyer leading to a spacious family room with a cathedral ceiling, skylights, and a cozy gas fireplace that can also adapt for wood. The adjoining sunroom features windows overlooking the tree-lined backyard, adding to this home's charm. The formal dining room and open chef's kitchen are ideal for entertaining, featuring custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and a stove with a downdraft venting feature. An efficient layout makes meal preparation enjoyable, and a brightly lit breakfast nook offers a cozy gathering spot. Bamboo flooring runs through much of the living space, and a sprinkler system uses well water in addition to city water. The two guest rooms are spacious, and the master suite is designed for comfort with two large closets, a sitting area or office nook, and an en suite bath featuring his-and-her vanities, a tiled spa shower, jacuzzi tub, and a stained glass window. Outside, relax on the wide covered deck that wraps from the sunroom to the kitchen. The owners have created an outdoor oasis with hardwood trees, mature palms, and a gazebo with a metal roof and fireplace for the cooler months. A detached storage shed adds convenience. Centrally located near restaurants, shops, and beaches like Surf City and Topsail Island, this home is just 30 minutes from Historic Downtown Wilmington, the Riverwalk, and Wilmington Airport.
