Overview

Description

Positioned along one of the most coveted half-miles of coastal property in Wrightsville Beach, this exceptional ICWW residence offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the very best of waterfront living. Designed to take full advantage of its remarkable setting, the property features an expansive waterfront yard that was extended approximately 10 feet and thoughtfully elevated, along with a reinforced bulkhead and beautifully designed outdoor living spaces. A custom concrete saltwater pool with glass tile, travertine surround, and customizable lighting creates a stunning centerpiece, complemented by a covered deck and waterfront swing overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway. For the boating enthusiast, four private boat slips–including one with a lift–provide exceptional access to the water just steps from home.
