Description
**Timeless Southern Charm Meets Modern Luxury in the Heart of Wilmington!** Set on nearly an acre, this picturesque Southern estate seamlessly blends classic character with modern conveniences. Thoughtfully remodeled and extensively updated, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of historic charm, modern amenities, and outdoor living. Interior highlights include a bright sunroom overlooking the expansive backyard, a traditional wood-paneled study, a pass-through butler's pantry, and a spacious bonus room off the kitchen. The renovated kitchen features a professional Wolf range, while the living room's gas fireplace creates a warm and inviting gathering space. Upstairs, the owner's suite offers two walk-in closets, along with two additional bedrooms. Outdoor living takes center stage in the beautifully landscaped, fully fenced backyard, where mature oak and magnolia trees frame a garden-inspired retreat with fountains, a large brick patio, fire pit, and a heated gunite saltwater pool. A newly added pool room and a detached, oversized two-car garage with alley access enhance the property's versatility and entertaining potential. Extensive improvements in 2023-2024 include new sewer and water lines, buried electric and internet cables, two new HVAC systems, basement ductwork and moisture barrier, upgraded electrical service, a tankless water heater, whole-house generator, lawn stormwater drainage and irrigation, landscape lighting, extensive landscaping, new split-system units in the pool room and craft room, and an ADT alarm system with Ring cameras. A gas line serves the stove, living room fireplace, tankless water heater, and generator. Additional improvements in 2025-2026 include a replacement sunroom roof, fresh exterior paint, repaired and replaced exterior woodwork, and the installation of the living room gas fireplace. Ideally located near Cape Fear Country Club and the hospital, approximately 10 minutes from Historic Downtown Wilmington and 15 minutes from Wrightsville Beach, this remarkable estate offers an exceptional opportunity to enjoy space, privacy, and convenience in one of Wilmington's most desirable settings.
