The estate features 134 feet of creek frontage, a private pier, and a floating dock. From here, you can reach Wrightsville Beach or Masonboro Island by boat in minutes.

Whether you want to restore the existing home or hold the land as a long-term investment, the lot’s dimensions allow for flexibility while preserving the privacy and charm that made it perfect for a TV set.
This property is famous for its role in the hit series Dawson’s Creek. Fans can instantly recognize two key features:


The Dock: The heart of Capeside drama, where characters confessed, confronted, and fell in love. From a real estate perspective, the dock provides direct water access to the Intracoastal Waterway.


The Ladder Window: Symbolizing youthful rebellion and friendship, this spot became one of the show’s most iconic visuals.



The home was originally built in the Wilmington Plain style, and over its 140-year history, it remained in the same family, earning the name “The Pines.” Its simple yet elegant construction has survived hurricanes and decades of coastal exposure.

Inside, the home offers 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms across 2,465 square feet, with spaces designed for cross-ventilation and natural light.

Tucked at the end of a quiet lane, the estate offers rare seclusion amid a neighborhood of long-established homes. Waterfront lots with direct Intracoastal access are scarce, and this property’s combination of land, location, and TV legacy makes it truly unique.
