The custom dock and walkway offer beautiful views toward Masonboro Island, while the docking facilities also feature a covered gazebo and stainless-steel swim ladder. The neighborhood provides kayak and paddleboard storage and convenient launching, making it easy to enjoy everything coastal living has to offer. The spacious living room is filled with character and designed to take full advantage of the gorgeous water views. A fireplace with gas logs creates a warm and inviting focal point, while extensive built-in bookshelves and a beautiful custom ceiling add architectural interest. A well-appointed wet bar with a wine refrigerator, ice maker, and attractive cabinetry for displaying glassware makes this space ideal for entertaining family and friends. The living room leads to an expansive covered deck with plenty of room for multiple outdoor seating and dining areas--the perfect place to relax, entertain, and enjoy the waterfront setting. Designed with entertaining in mind, the beautiful kitchen features custom cabinetry, a large center island with granite countertops, a six-burner Dacor gas range, an additional built-in oven, a large built-in microwave, a GE Monogram built-in refrigerator, and stainless-steel appliances throughout.

An additional separate room offers tremendous flexibility as a home office, hobby room, or storage area and includes even more interior storage located in the rear of this room. The lower level adds even more versatility to this exceptional home. A private fourth bedroom with its own full bathroom provides a comfortable retreat for family or overnight guests. A separate family room/den offers additional living space and creates endless possibilities for the way this level can be used. With a bedroom, private bath, and dedicated living area already in place, the lower level could easily be transformed into a wonderful in-law suite or private guest quarters while still remaining connected to the rest of the home. The oversized laundry room includes a utility sink along with plenty of cabinetry and storage space. A two-car garage provides additional storage and features an electric vehicle charging outlet, while the spacious driveway offers plenty of additional parking. Outdoor living is just as impressive, with a wraparound front porch, beautiful decks on both the second and third floors, a covered lower-level patio, and a spacious outdoor shower perfect after a day on the boat, at the beach, or on the water!
