Overview

Over 2 acres with an In-ground pool, Three en-suites, and privately owned natural space behind the home, all complemented by a new FORTIFIED roof for added peace of mind.

Set on more than 2 acres with an inground pool, pond frontage, and protected natural space behind the home owned by Orton Plantation, this private retreat offers a rare combination of freedom, flexibility, and peaceful surroundings. With over 2,600 square feet, three bedrooms, and 3.5 bathrooms, the layout includes three en suites, making it well suited for multigenerational living, guests, or rental opportunities. Located in the county with no HOA and no rental restrictions, the property offers the option for short-term or long-term rental use.

The setting is one of the standout features. The fenced backyard, pool, pond, screened porch, and rear deck all come together to create an inviting outdoor space designed for relaxing, entertaining, and enjoying the natural beauty around you. Because Orton Plantation owns the land behind the home, the backyard privacy is a lasting and exceptional advantage. Ownership also includes half of the pond, adding to the serene atmosphere of this one-of-a-kind property.

Inside, the first floor features tile flooring throughout, along with a kitchen offering granite countertops and solid wood cabinetry. The full basement is used as a recreational area, providing additional flexible space for hobbies, gatherings, or everyday enjoyment. The primary bath received a new shower in 2019, and the home also includes a Culligan water softener system, three automatic storm shutters in the kitchen, and Ecobee Wi-Fi thermostats installed in 2024.

Major updates include a FORTIFIED roof in 2025, rebuilt retaining wall in 2025, new pool pump and salt generator in 2025, pool bottom repair in 2025, new irrigation pump in 2025, backyard sod in 2025, tankless propane Rinnai water heater installed by Mansfield in 2019, and replacement windows installed by the current owners in 2005.

The back deck is approximately three years old. There is also 220-amp service with a 50-amp RV plug on the far side of the driveway, controlled at the breaker box. A $700 home warranty is being offered due to the age of the HVAC systems.

Boiling Spring Lakes is approximately 7 miles from historic downtown Southport, where you will enjoy restaurants, galleries, shopping, and grocery stores, and just about 10 minutes from the public beaches of Oak Island.

Conveniently located between Wilmington, North Carolina and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, this property delivers privacy, space, and versatility in a location that keeps the coast close at hand. Call today to schedule your showing !
