About this home

Ideally located coastal retreat on an over-sized .65 acre lot in the highly coveted area of Scotts Hill. Enjoy the Wilmington zip code while having the advantages of living in Pender County. This home features mature landscaping, a beautifully updated kitchen and breakfast nook, cozy gas logs in the den and a bright and airy living/family room with vaulted ceilings. The multi-purpose detached building currently serves as a wired garage/workshop and a home office and tiki bar which are climate controlled by a mini-split. You can work or play without ever leaving your own property. The attached two car garage also contains a mini-split for climate control providing yet another area to use as a workshop, flex space, or an indoor gym-ideal during our very warm summers and chilly winter days. Marsh Creek at Scotts Hill Marina - a full service private Marina on the ICWW is less than a mile away.

The Shoppes at Blake Farms - just down the road will provide exceptionally convenient shopping amenities including the well-respected Publix Grocery store, restaurants, and other retail businesses which will serve the area's residents. Head onto the by-pass and reach downtown Wilmington in 25-30 minutes -the heart of the arts and historic districts as well as live concerts and theatre. Head north on HWY 17 to reach the pristine beaches of Topsail Island or head south to the beautiful and popular Wrightsville Beach.
