This updated ranch is ideally located just outside the Wilmington city limits, offering the added benefit of no city taxes while remaining just minutes from Carolina Beach, UNCW, and the popular Monkey Junction area. Major improvements have already been completed, including a new roof (2022), new HVAC system (2023), two updated bathrooms, an updated kitchen featuring new cabinetry, countertops, and plumbing fixtures, and newer flooring throughout much of the home. While many of the big-ticket updates have been addressed, the home still offers an excellent opportunity for a buyer to add their own finishing touches and build additional equity. The spacious utility room, enhanced with heating and air in 2023, provides abundant workspace and storage, while the massive enclosed porch fills the home with natural light and offers flexible space for relaxing, hobbies, or entertaining. Situated on a generously sized lot in a highly desirable location, this property combines recent improvements with outstanding potential. The expansive backyard provides plenty of room for boat trailers, campers, golf carts, and all your recreational toys, making it an ideal property for enjoying the coastal lifestyle while still having the space and flexibility that's increasingly difficult to find.
