Built in 2024 on a gated, fully fenced 2.23-acre homesite, the property includes a private 30-ft boat slip with a new 13,000-lb boat lift at the community dock, with the Intracoastal Waterway and Fort Fisher Recreation Area just minutes away by boat. Offering 2,589 sq ft, the home features LVP flooring throughout, 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, a dedicated office, & an open floor plan designed to capture water views. A soaring foyer welcomes you into a light-filled interior with 10-ft ceilings, 8-ft solid wood doors, shiplap accents, cable railing staircases, sliding barn doors, and Andersen black-framed windows & doors for energy efficiency. The living room flows into a designer kitchen with Samsung stainless appliances, a concrete island, butcher block countertops, ceramic tile backsplash, gas range with pot filler, custom vent hood, slow-close cabinetry, & a spacious butler's pantry. A well-appointed laundry room with utility sink, guest bedroom, and full bath complete the main level. An expansive deck offers the perfect setting for outdoor dining and unforgettable Cape Fear River sunsets. Upstairs, the waterfront primary suite features a sliding barn door leading to a spa-inspired bath with a pebble-floor walk-in shower, dual vanities with backlit LED mirrors, and a custom walk-in closet. An additional bedroom, full bath, and dedicated office provide flexibility for guests or remote work. Additional highlights include a framed and wired future elevator shaft, standing seam metal roof, Rinnai tankless water heater, fiber cement siding, enclosed outdoor shower, covered parking with room for multiple vehicles, and a manual gate at the driveway. Launch from your private boat slip, spend the day on the Intracoastal Waterway, and return home to some of the best sunset views along the Cape Fear River.
