Description

For buyers seeking the boating lifestyle without compromising on space or privacy, your home includes a deeded 24' boat slip and 10, 000-pound hydraulic lift--offering direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway just minutes from your door. Set within the private waterfront enclave of Avenel in Porters Neck, this fully renovated 4, 200-SF residence offers 4 beds, 3.5 baths, and a rare combination of land, light & coastal lifestyle on a beautifully landscaped, estate-sized .75-acre homesite framed by mature trees. Days begin with tranquil views over Laurel Lea Pond and end on the water, inviting a quick run to Masonboro Island. Designed for both entertaining and multi-generational flexibility, your home features expansive living areas, home office, and a 1st-level recreation space with covered patio access and a large bonus room. The open-concept main level is anchored by a chef's kitchen with a substantial quartz island, white cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, stainless appliances, built-in wall oven, French-door refrigerator, and designer pendant lighting. A bay window and direct access to the back porch enhance everyday living and outdoor entertaining. Inside, soaring ceilings and skylights fill the home with natural light, complemented by site-finished hardwood floors throughout the main living areas. Architectural details--including crown molding, substantial baseboards, arched openings, and transom windows--add depth and character. The living room features a fireplace with custom built-ins and flows seamlessly into dining spaces and a tiled sunroom. The owner's suite offers a refined retreat with a freestanding soaking tub beneath an arched window, glass-enclosed shower with subway tile and matte black fixtures, hex tile flooring, and a walk-in closet. Recent improvements include a new roof and fresh exterior paint on the cedar shake siding. An oversized 2-car garage provides additional storage for coastal gear and recreational needs. Avenel is known for its tree-lined streets, privacy, and strong sense of community--where boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding are part of everyday life. Ideally located just minutes to shopping and dining and approximately 10 miles to Wrightsville Beach, your home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy a tucked-away waterfront setting without sacrificing convenience.
