About this home
Seller offering $10,000 use as you choose credit! Welcome to 116 Cavalier Drive, where an exceptional Wilmington location, generous outdoor space, and years of thoughtful improvements come together to create a home designed for both everyday living and the coastal lifestyle. Situated on a spacious, private lot surrounded by mature landscaping, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home + FROG offers approximately 2,473 square feet, an attached two-car garage, flexible living spaces, and a backyard that feels like its own private retreat. Your new home offers a comfortable, character-filled floor plan with plenty of room to spread out. Multiple living areas provide flexibility for entertaining, relaxing, working from home, or accommodating guests, while the kitchen has been thoughtfully refreshed with a more open-concept design and clean, modern feel. The home has benefited from numerous improvements over the years, including replacement windows, HVAC updates, an updated garage door, and a combination of tile, carpet, and luxury vinyl plank flooring. Step outside and the appeal only grows. An expansive deck overlooks the private, fully fenced backyard, creating an ideal setting for entertaining friends, grilling after a day at the beach, gardening, or simply enjoying the privacy and space around you. An outdoor shower makes rinsing off after the beach effortless, while the hot tub provides the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day. The attached two-car garage and generous driveway offer valuable parking and storage for everything that comes with life near the coast (Surf, Sup, Bike, etc). And with no HOA, there's an added level of freedom and flexibility that's increasingly difficult to find in such a desirable location. Perhaps the greatest advantage of 116 Cavalier is its proximity to everything that makes this part of Wilmington so special. Located approximately a mile from Wrightsville Beach and convenient to marinas, Mayfaire, restaurants, shopping, and everyday necessities. This is where the Wrightsville Beach lifestyle meets the space and freedom of home--close enough for spontaneous beach days, bike rides toward the coast, evenings by the water, and weekends on the boat, while still coming home to a large private yard, two-car garage, ample parking, and room to breathe. At 116 Cavalier Drive, you don't have to choose between coastal convenience and everyday livability--you can have both.
