Description

Welcome home to this truly one-of-a-kind, custom-built home in the heart of sought-after Hampstead. Located in a friendly neighborhood with deeded access to a gated boat ramp, this property is perfectly positioned on a large, private lot framed by mature landscaping. From the moment you arrive, it feels like a retreat. The wraparound front porch sets the tone, inviting morning coffee, porch-sitting, and easy Southern living. Inside, refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout, and a beautifully renovated kitchen with a spacious center island create an inviting, move-in-ready experience. With 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, the floor plan offers comfort and flexibility, while the cozy fireplace and screened-in porch make everyday living feel effortless in every season. The primary suite features a renovated shower, dual vanities, and a walk-in closet with a custom closet system, along with access to a private deck overlooking the backyard. Upstairs, you'll also find additional easy-access storage tucked neatly under the eaves—always a welcome bonus. The detached 23x23 two-car garage offers excellent walk-up attic storage and includes a whole-house generator for added peace of mind. Thoughtful upgrades and meticulous care shine throughout, blending classic craftsmanship with modern comfort. All of this is just minutes from top-rated Hampstead schools and an easy drive to Wilmington and our beautiful local beaches. And don't forget—neighborhood boat ramp access is right there when you want it. If you've been waiting for a well-cared-for home with character, convenience, and room to breathe—this is the one.

  • Patnystrom
    "Living in Hampstead feels like living in a small friendly town of 60 years ago; people wave and speak, even to strangers, and help each other in times of need. The weather is influenced by the Gulf Stream, so it's always cooler (or warmer) than in nearby inland communities. While it is quiet here, there is plenty to do, especially if you like water activities, and both Wilmington and Raleigh have a lot to offer in terms of culture, concerts, and night life."
  • Leo U.
    "I have no idea what this post is referring too. I have lived in Hampstead Pines since the beginning. No through streets lots of Cul-de-sac streets for the kids to ride bikes, play basketball safely! Great location to Wilmington and Jacksonville and Topsail Schools is one of the best in NC."
