About this property

Mid-town family home 5mi to Beach, river walk 1mi to UNCW, golf course and parks

Family memories made together last a lifetime at our centrally-located, updated 4 bedroom home with room for everyone. One mile from municipal golf course, long leaf park and UNCW. 6 mins from Airlie Gardens, 12 mins from Wrightsville beach with its warm gentle waves, and soft sand, or explore downtown Wilmington 15 minutes away with many breweries, shops, cafes, and restaurants. Return home and enjoy Foosball, games, puzzles, books, toys for the kids, and a large fenced backyard with charcoal BBQ, outdoor dining table and chairs under the shade of large oak trees. Plenty of room for the family to relax after a day at the beach, or sightseeing.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This place is perfectly appointed for a large family or group of friends on an adult getaway. Loaner beach chairs are a nice touch. Communications were easy and prompt. Proximity to both the beach and Wilmington make this a great spot.
