About this House

Welcome to this Southern Living Dream Home! Just one minute drive to the ICW with a public ramp and Sloop Point Marina, situated on almost a half-acre lot without an HOA, this charmer has a lot of to offer.
As you enter the foyer, you can admire beautiful LVP floors. A large and bright living room welcomes you and feels as though it was made for cozy evenings around the fireplace with a nice glass of wine, reading your favorite author, playing family games, conducting deep conversations or just watching movies. The open concept connects the living room with a kitchen. The gourmet kitchen offers cabinets with ample storage, glistening granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a working island, a pantry and a breakfast nook with a bay window that will please every chef. A formal dining room is waiting for you to host your next holiday dinner. The laundry room has a washer and a dryer ready for its new owners. A coat closet and a half bathroom complete the main level. Upstairs you can explore a private Master Suite with a vaulted ceiling, a double vanity, a tiled shower, a garden tub and a walk-in closet. Two spare bedrooms share a full bathroom. A spacious bonus room has a large closet and a private deck overlooking the backyard.
During the long Carolina summers, you can spend time with gardening or doing some handy work in your storage shed or relax on your large deck while being kissed by the sun and overlooking your backyard and watching wildlife passing by - an abundance of birds, butterflies, fox, deer, owls, turtles, bunnies and opossums.
Looking for more fun and activities? Take a short walk to Sloop Point Marina and the public ramp where you can access the ICW. This is Southern Living at its finest!
The amazing location of this property is another attractive feature to consider. Situated in the coastal town of Hampstead and within a short commute to the fabulous Kiwanis Park, highly rated schools, shopping, restaurants, many golf courses, highly rated Topsail Island and Wrightsville beaches, and the city of Wilmington with a world class university, a tremendously growing network of businesses, and a historic river district.
The owners are also offering one-year home warranty.

  • 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."
  • Melanie b.
