Overview
This truly one-of-a-kind property is tucked away on an incredibly rare 1.69-acre home site in Wilmington's sought-after Old Chimney community. Surrounded by mature trees and lush landscaping, this beautifully remodeled single-story home offers the perfect blend of privacy, functionality, and coastal lifestyle. Old Chimney is one of Wilmington's hidden gems featuring only 47 homes, each with a deeded boat slip on the Intracoastal Waterway, plus access to a community pool and tennis courts. Featuring low HOA dues and a prime location only minutes from Carolina Beach, shopping, dining, and downtown Wilmington, this neighborhood provides an exceptional and distinctive lifestyle opportunity. Inside, the home feels custom, warm, and thoughtfully designed with a highly versatile floor plan that adapts beautifully to various living needs. Multiple living spaces offer flexibility for entertaining, working from home, hobbies, or multi-generational living. Built-in shelving, custom finishes, and abundant storage throughout make the home both functional and inviting. The remodeled kitchen opens seamlessly into the living areas and overlooks the peaceful backyard setting. One of the home's standout features is the incredible year-round sunroom, flooded with natural light and surrounded by walls of windows that bring the outdoors in. This expansive space creates the perfect second living area, or relaxing retreat overlooking the private grounds. The spacious primary suite features a stunning custom bath with a spa-like wet room and a beautifully designed closet system complete with built-in drawers and shelving. Two additional full baths have been beautifully remodeled. One is handicapped-accessible, adding flexibility and convenience for guests or multi-generational living. This home has also been extensively improved for long-term peace of mind, including an encapsulated crawlspace, whole-house generator, reverse osmosis filtration system for kitchen sink, heated workshop with built-in cabinetry, reinforced poured concrete vault/safe room with ventilation, and an 18-zone irrigation system with dedicated watering stations. Step outside and enjoy a backyard that feels like a private retreat complete with mature palms, a pond, garden pathways, pergola seating areas, and a custom stone fire feature. Properties like this rarely become available in Wilmington--offering acreage, boat access, custom upgrades, and privacy all in one exceptional package.
