Description
When you want it all, you must accept that it’ll take a visit to 8824 Shipwatch Dr. Welcome to one of the finest coastal homes that Wilmington, NC currently has to offer. Located in the quaint gated community of Shipwatch, this lovely raised low country overlooks the Cape Fear River and is blessed with million dollar sunsets. The colors experienced vary greatly and the palette that nature provides seems endless. Come on through the remote gated entry and take a short drive to this almost 1-acre lot with a deep set-back, dressed with actual greenery and an approach that is set along a slightly winding driveway. Notable features around the grounds include a fenced yard, dedicated garden area, inground pool, pier/dock, boat lift, huge ez-breeze porch with cable rails, plenty of covered patio area and open pool decking for endless entertainment and/or personal enjoyment. Step inside to a understated yet thoughtfully raised two story foyer, open living, dining, and kitchen layout with built-ins and floor to ceiling fireplace. Sweeping waterviews can be found from every room along the back of the house. The Master Suite is located on the main living with a walk-in shower, plenty of closet space and corner tub. There is also and actual laundry room, .5 bath and, most likely, HIS office located on this same floor. Upstairs you’ll find a catwalk overlooking the main living area, 3 additional bedrooms, flex room/bonus room and storage areas here and there. Extras include a 2021 roof, remodeled second floor and guest baths, carpeting, indoor/outdoor fixtures and fans, KINETICO WHOLE house carbon filtration system, R/O system for drinking water in the kitchen (warranty), and a large ground floor workshop. Park your boat in your slip, hop in the pool or just lounge about.
