ON A MODERN BEACH HOUSE

Homes for sale with separate guest house wilmington nc

 408 Birmingham Avenue Carolina Beach

PRICE LOWERED $25,000

The homes up and down Birmingham Avenue in Carolina Beach are all different styles. This is not a cookie-cutter neighborhood. But in our opinion, there is one that is more unique than all the others- 408 Birmingham is a contemporary  four bedroom, two-and-half bath, custom-built home. This is a place for those who like clear, crisp, uncluttered lines. The house features an open floor plan in the main living area. The kitchen includes lacquer cabinets, Corian countertops, double ovens, and a beer and wine cooler. Other highlights include a balcony that runs along the back and side of the home, an outdoor shower, and hurricane resistant windows. The home could easily be adapted for an elevator with a shaft already in place. In all, there’s a total of 3100 square feet with an asking price of $725,000.

ON A LUXURY HOME IN NEW HANOVER COUNTY

Homes for sale with separate guest house wilmington nc

7319 Carolina Beach Rd. Wilmington

This home was on our list year until the owners decided to temporary cancel its listing. It’s now back on the market and our list. Even though this house is off of one of the busiest streets in town, we’re betting you probably never knew it existed. It sits on nearly 11 acres that fronts to the Intracoastal Waterway. This elegant estate includes a 6200 square foot main house, a two-bedroom carriage house, a three-bedroom guest house, and a pool house. The large indoor heated pool has a 50-foot extension for swimming laps; an expansive retractable movie screen for watching your favorite media while floating in the pool; his and her changing rooms; and an elevated area for all your professional exercise equipment. Inside the main house, even the most discriminating buyer will be impressed by all the custom features and details. A few examples: red onyx around the two-sided fireplace; bamboo floors with black walnut inlay; hand-woven carpeting up the main staircase and around the rotunda area; English Beech and eucalyptus wood in the great room; custom wrought iron banisters fashioned to look like sea grass; gravity glass sinks; and the list goes on and on. Did we mention the putting green, the 195 feet of Intracoastal Waterway frontage and 450’ pier with a gazebo? And the spectacular sunrises? Asking price: $7,400,000.

ON A 100 YEAR-OLD VICTORIAN

Homes for sale with separate guest house wilmington nc

229 N Caswell Avenue, Southport

Do you remember the old song “You ought to be in pictures?” Well, this Southport home was featured in a movie. It was the setting for the 1987 film Crimes of the Heart (starring Diane Keaton, Jessica Lange, Sissy Spacek and Sam Shepard.)  That is just part of the history of the classic Victorian house built in 1910. It has been completely modernized with updated electrical, plumbing and energy saving double paned windows. It is located in the heart of downtown Southport, and has three bedrooms and three baths.  The intricate architectural details make this a one-of-a kind deal. Features include a post-card-worthy gazebo, original pressed tin ceilings, and an extra-large cast iron bathtub. Meanwhile the modern kitchen offers four Wolf brand ovens, a gourmet range, pot filler, Wolf vent hood, and a commercial grade dishwasher. On top of all that, the price was lowered this month by more than $70,000. It now stands at $897,000.

Homes for sale with separate guest house wilmington nc

4630 Mockingbird Lane

Three acres in the middle of Wilmington, that in and off itself makes this a very unique property. But there is so much more to this Long Leaf Hills home: a basement, a pool, a pond view, Palm trees, and one of a kind shape and layout you can see from the outside and experience inside. The home was designed with a wing floor plan, which gives each room its own identity and yet still feels very open. There’s tons of natural light that comes in through all the windows and sky lights. If you like a downstairs master suite, this home has two. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms, plus a large second living area. The basement is 1,900 square feet with sliding glass doors that lead to the pool. The home also comes with two electric car charges in the garage. Asking price $494,000

ON A MODERN HOME ON FIGURE EIGHT ISLAND

Homes for sale with separate guest house wilmington nc

521 Beach Road North, Figure Eight Island

This is a modern style home, but its story actually starts two centuries ago. In 1877 a lumber ship was lost at sea. It wasn’t found until 2015, on the very grounds that this house now stands. The wreckage served as inspiration for this home in Wilmington’s most exclusive neighborhood.  The architect calls this style  “Yacht Modern.”  The house is built with mahogany wood, stainless steel, aluminum and impact resistant glass and has a boat theme throughout.  It has four bedrooms, four full baths and two half baths in just over 4,000 square feet. In all, there are four levels each connected by floating stairs . Our favorite part is the roof top swimming pool which provides 360 degree views of Figure Eight Island. Asking price $4,850,000

LARGEST HOME IN NEW HANOVER COUNTY

Homes for sale with separate guest house wilmington nc

100 South 3rd Street, Wilmington

The largest home for sale in the tri-county area is one you’ve probably already noticed. Maybe you’ve attended a wedding at the Greystone Inn or perhaps, even spent a night here.  At the very least, maybe you’ve walked or driven by it.  At 15,000 square feet the home is huge, but its appeal is also about its history.  It was built at the turn of the last century for the daughter-in-law of the President of the Atlantic Coast Line Railway. No expense was spared with Indiana limestone exterior and white Italian Carrara marble in the entrance way.  There are twelve bedrooms and twelve and a half baths. While the current owners have gone to great lengths to preserve the past, there are also modern conveniences, especially in the kitchen. From top to bottom, this home is filled with wow factors. Our favorites are the 14 foot Corinthian columns, the original brass wall sconces, and the grand staircase. A side note, since it has been operating as a B&B, notable guests have included Alan Alda, Dennis Hopper, Jay Leno and Tom Cruise. Asking price $2,250,000.For more information.

LARGEST HOME ON THE CAPE FEAR RIVER

Homes for sale with separate guest house wilmington nc

8660 River Road, Wilmington

Here’s a chance to own a large house with a lot of property.  This 6,300 square foot home with five bedrooms and five and a half baths is located on nearly 8 acres. Even though it’s conveniently located between Wilmington and the beaches of Pleasure Island, when you’re on this property you get the feeling of being totally secluded. The plantation style home offers tons of southern charm with an amazing wrap-around porch that hugs the entire house, and a grand foyer that provides views of the river the moment you walk through the front door. The gourmet kitchen features a walnut raised bar, a punched tin back splash, a warming drawer and four dishwasher drawers. Other highlights include a temperature controlled wine cellar, three fire places, a morning bar in the master bedroom, plus floor to ceiling shoe storage in the master closets. Outside, you will find a 200 foot dock with 2 (12,000 and 18,000 lb) boat lifts and a gazebo, as well as a superior detached workshop with car/boat port. Asking price $2,950,000.

ON THE LARGEST HOME IN PENDER COUNTY

Homes for sale with separate guest house wilmington nc

122 North Shore Drive, Surf City

Many people don’t think of a large home as investment property, but this one has a proven record as an income producer. In 2019 alone, it brought in roughly $230,000 in rental fees from vacationers from all over the country. When people travel to the beach, they want to be on the ocean and it would be hard to find a home that gets closer to the water than this one. At just over 6,000 square feet, this home offers 10 bedrooms, each with its own en suite bath. There’s also an open floor plan on the main level that combines a large kitchen and dining area with an ample sized living room. Other features include a billiards room, 18 seat movie theater, and an elevator.  The main attraction, of course, is found outside. The multiple level decks offer an ocean facing grill, a splash pool and a hot-tub at roof level. Asking price is $2,400,000.

Homes for sale with separate guest house wilmington nc

1130 Pembroke Jones

If you’re one for celebrity name dropping, then you will like this fact: both Emeril Lagasse and Giada De Laurentiis  have prepared meals in this home’s kitchen. You don’t have to be a celebrity chef to appreciate the Wolf six-burner gas cook-top, a Sub Zero Refrigerator and all the bells and whistles of a top of the line gourmet kitchen. The rest of the house is equally impressive. At 9,719 square feet, it is the third largest property currently on the market in  New Hanover County.  The house features five bedrooms and seven and a half baths spread out over four floors, with elevator service to each level. In our opinion, the best part is the incredible  views of the Intracoastal Waterway, Wrightsville Beach and Figure Eight Island. The house is being sold with a 28′ boat slip on the ICWW.  It also offers a three-car garage, a game room, home theater and 3,000 square feet of deck space.
