Description

This meticulously designed, positioned, and constructed home was built to capture the optimal coastal living experience for either full time living or a weekend get away. As it is situated on an elevated lot out of the flood zone, it offers one of the best, if not the best views of the ICWW and the ocean from the mainland. This home features sweeping views of Lee Island, the ICCW, New Topsail Inlet and on to the ocean! Ocean views........that's correct. Prepare to be amazed.
With the reversed and open floor plan nestled in the foliage and nearly an acre of space with mature Live Oaks, this house is positioned for an excellent blend of privacy as well as breath-taking views from both inside and outside on the expansive, top floor wrap around covered porch. Those porches also serve as quintessential living and entertainment space. Also located on this top floor are a spacious laundry room, guest half bath, and a home office with two built-in desks. Plus, the elevator makes access and living very easy.
The 2nd floor is composed of a second living/Television/game area with a wet bar, microwave and refrigerator. Also a half bath, & 3 bedrooms, each equipped with its own FULL Bath, and each with direct access to the covered porch rounds out a house with versatile living opportunities. The two porches, one on each level, together make up 1500 square feet of prime outdoor living space!
Here, coastal living is enriched by access to the private community boat ramp by continuing to pay HOA fees giving direct access to the ICWW, Topsail and Lea Islands and the Ocean via New Topsail Inlet. Or head south and be in Wrightsville for lunch in just a few minutes. The neighborhood is convenient to health care, shopping, Wilmington and interstate 40. This offering is very unique and will be appreciated by discerning buyers. (Buyers are able to continue to pay $579 annually to use the private Forest Sound Marina Boat Ramp)

  • 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."
