Located on a spacious corner lot in Laurel Ridge, this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers 1,180 heated square-feet of comfortable, low-maintenance living. Inside, luxury vinyl plank flooring (installed in 2022) runs throughout, and the vaulted ceiling in the living room adds to the open, airy feel. The updated kitchen features plenty of cabinet space, an attached breakfast nook, and an adjacent dining area for more formal meals. Step outside to a private patio in the fenced back yard–perfect for grilling, gardening, or relaxing. A storage room at the back of the home provides space for tools, gear, or seasonal items. Both bedrooms include walk-in closets, and the bathrooms have been updated with modern vanities, tile flooring, new faucets, and toilets. The fenced yard includes a sprinkler system connected to a well (pump not currently working), offering great potential for future landscaping. Additional updates include a roof replacement in 2016 and exterior painting completed within the last 2-3 years. Laurel Ridge allows short-term rentals, making this a smart option for buyers seeking flexibility–whether you’re looking for a primary residence, vacation home, or investment opportunity. The neighborhood offers quick access to Carolina Beach, Downtown Wilmington, Veteran’s Park, and area schools including Anderson Elementary, Murray Middle, and Ashley High. With a practical layout, modern updates, and a desirable location, this home is a move-in-ready opportunity in one of the region’s most convenient coastal communities.
