There's also a prep kitchen complete with sink, wine refrigerator, and ice maker. Real tongue-and-groove ceilings bring warmth and character overhead, while mahogany porch ceilings and heavy-timber columns crafted from Eastern North Carolina sourced wood add an unmistakable sense of craftsmanship.

The home is also pre-wired for a generator and pool, allowing future improvements to be seamlessly integrated. There's also a double bay garage and outdoor shower. Adding to the appeal is the highly sought-after Middle Sound Loop location, a part of Wilmington known for its convenient access to shopping, dining, beaches, and everyday amenities while retaining the established character and traditional coastal feel that makes this area so desirable. For those who love life on the water, opportunities may also exist to acquire a boat slip on the Loop at one of the local marinas near by, providing the possibility of keeping your boat close to home and making it easier to enjoy the waterways and locations that make this area so special.
