About this property

Small private water front community on a tidal creek.

Welcome to your private oasis in Wilmington! Our fully remodeled home offers everything you need for a comfortable and memorable stay. Nestled on a secluded lot, this modern retreat features an expansive screened porch, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and a gas fireplace. Enjoy stylish, newer furniture that adds to the home's relaxed vibe.

Outdoors, you'll find multiple spaces designed for relaxation and entertainment. Unwind on the deck, screened porch, or in the custom gazebo overlooking a scenic tidal creek. Paddle your kayak or stand-up paddleboard directly from the property to the beautiful Intracoastal Waterway and Masonboro Island for a true coastal experience.

Indoors, the spacious family room is perfect for gathering, with the gas fireplace providing extra warmth on cooler evenings. When it’s time to explore, you’re in the ideal location: walk to nearby pubs, restaurants, a mini-mart, playground, and a public boat launch all within a mile. Coming in 2025, a multi-use city trail along Masonboro Loop Road will be just a half-mile from the house.

Our home is also centrally located for all Wilmington has to offer:

8 miles to Wrightsville Beach
9 miles to Carolina Beach
8 miles to historic downtown Wilmington
1 mile to Trails End Park / public boat launch

Whether you're looking for relaxation, adventure, or a bit of both, our home offers an exceptional blend of privacy, comfort, and convenience.

We truly enjoyed our stay here. The kitchen and house were well stocked with anything we could need. The rooms were nicely decorated and there was plenty of space. We loved the deck and gazebo and particularly enjoyed the screened in porch. We'd stay here again and highly recommend it.

This home is an absolute sanctuary full of lush greenery, and sunlight. It is immediately clear how much love and care has been poured into every inch of the property. We enjoyed exploring all the little sitting nooks inside and out. We especially enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch, sipping wine and listening to the bird calls. Thank you, Jeff and Ellen for your hospitality. We hope to visit again in the future.

This house is perfect in all ways. Location is great - close to UNCW and Wrightsville. The screened porch was an added bonus when raining. Comfortable beds, sofas and kitchen well stocked. We will definitely rent again if we have the need.

About the host

Hosted by Jeff

Host profile image
My wife and I have traveled extensively and understand what makes a great vacation experience. We have hosted vacation properties for seven years and this is our newest addition. We purchased and have lived in this home for several years. The house was selected because of its location within Wilmington as well as its private backyard and coastal/tropical feel. We enjoy working with our guests and get great satisfaction from the positive feedback from our guests.

Why they chose this property

We selected this home several years ago as a down-sizing opportunity. The central coastal location within Wilmington provides access to everything popular in 10 - 15 minutes. There are two restaurants within walking distance (approximately 1/3 mile) Whiskey Trail Restaurant & The Keg and Egg as well as a convenience store. We especially fell in love with the small friendly neighborhood and covered gazebo on the community dock. The location of the house in the neighborhood also provided a lot of backyard privacy, vacant lot next to our house.

What makes this property unique

Coastal experience without the noise and crowds. The property location is central to downtown, Wrightsville Beach, and Carolina Beach. The community dock with gazebo / picnic table provides a spot to launch kayaks, SUP boards or just enjoy relaxing sunsets and waterfowl.
