Welcome to this lovely home with amazing finishes and custom trim work which will follow you with each step. Situated in the heart of the coastal town of Hampstead, close to schools, shopping, restaurants and all the fun that coastal living is about! On your arrival you can admire the manicured landscaping which further highlights the aesthetic appeal of the property, as well as an extended driveway for additional parking. As you walk in, you will notice brand-new light fixtures installed throughout the entire home and a grand wooden staircase in front of you and an office shielded by glass French doors on your right. A formal dining room with colossal columns, a coffered ceiling and wainscoting awaits the new owners to host their next holiday meal. A spacious and bright living room welcomes you and feels as though it was made for cozy evenings around a fireplace with a nice glass of wine, listening to music, reading your favorite author, playing family games, conducting deep conversations or just watching movies. The open concept connects the living room with the kitchen. The gourmet kitchen offers cabinets with ample storage, glistening granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances that are 2 years old, a working island, an eat-in bar, a pantry, a coffee/bar station and a breakfast nook. One of the spare bedrooms with a walk-in closet is conveniently located on the main level next to the full bathroom and a linen closet. A mudroom with a hall tree and a bench has cabinets for additional storage. A utility closet completes the main level and let's not forget about a built-in cubby with an organizer for all your keys, cords and manuals which is also located in the mudroom. Upstairs you can admire the engineered hardwood floor installed 3 years ago and brand-new carpet in the bedrooms. Let's explore the loft for entertainment which also has a TV connection. The private and oversized Master Suite offers a tray ceiling, a double vanity with additional storage drawers, a custom tiled shower, a garden tub, two walk-in closets and two linen closets. Two spare bedrooms each have a walk-in closet and share a Jack and Jill bathroom. A fifth bedroom with a large walk-in closet is situated on the opposite side with its own full bathroom. The current owners use a spacious bonus room as an entertainment movie room. The laundry room with storage cabinets and a folding table has both washer and dryer ready for its new owners. The home also features 2 years old high efficiency Trane heat pumps. Enjoy your Southern tea on your extended patio while overlooking this private piece of paradise and allow yourself to watch wildlife passing by - an abundance of birds, butterflies, fox, deer, owls, turtles, bunnies and opossums. Looking for more fun and activities? Gather with your friends and neighbors at the community playground with a swing set or a picnic area and roast some marshmallows at a firepit or take a nice bike ride on the community trail leading to a pond where you can do some rip'n & grip'n for catch and release. The absolutely amazing location of this property is another attractive feature to consider. Situated along the sparkling Intracoastal Waterway, with a short commute to highly rated schools, shopping, restaurants, fabulous Kiwanis Park, many golf courses, ICW access, 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.
