The main floor primary suite has been completely remodeled and functions as a true retreat. It features a freestanding soaking tub, a shower finished floor to ceiling in tile, and a layout that connects directly to the laundry room, removing one of the most common daily inconveniences in a two story home. A second bedroom on the main level adds valuable flexibility, whether for guests, a home office, or long term aging in place planning. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms give family and visitors their own private space without disrupting the single level rhythm of everyday living downstairs. Just a short walk or golf cart ride away, residents can enjoy the neighborhood's new restaurant and bar, along with the community pool, all without ever needing to get in the car. From the moment you enter, the open concept living area sets the tone.

The adjoining back porch comes equipped with a natural gas grill and outdoor speakers wired into the main level surround sound system, ready for effortless entertaining any time of year. The lot backs up to nature, delivering a level of privacy that is genuinely difficult to find this close to community amenities. This home was also built with coastal living in mind. It sits on a raised slab foundation, and a whole home generator, serviced bi-annually, means storm season is an inconvenience rather than an emergency. Recent capital updates take the guesswork out of buying: a 2026 water heater and cabinets freshly painted in 2025 mean the major to-do items are already checked off. Additional details throughout the home include a walk-in attic for extra storage, wood shelving in the closets, epoxy coated garage floors with wall cabinets for organization, updated light fixtures, and stylish peel and stick wallpaper at the entry. A golf cart is available for separate purchase, perfect for quick trips to the pool or dinner without ever pulling the car out of the garage.

Some people build a house because they need one. Others build because they're finally ready to live the way they've always wanted. This wooded 0.38-acre homesite sits near the end of a cul-de-sac in The Bluffs on the Cape Fear, backing to HOA-owned land for additional privacy. Bring your own plans and choose from some of the area's best custom builders to create a home that's designed for you--not a builder's inventory sheet. One of the things that makes The Bluffs different is that it doesn't feel like every house came from the same set of plans. The community encourages custom, coastal-inspired homes while preserving the mature trees and natural setting that drew people here in the first place. The result is a neighborhood with character, where quality architecture and thoughtful design help protect both the beauty of the community and your investment. Life here is less about checking off amenities and more about how you spend your weekends. Hop on your golf cart and head to the resort-style pool or clubhouse for lunch. Play a game of pickleball. Launch your kayak or boat from the community ramp onto the Cape Fear River. Fish from the stocked lake, stroll the marina boardwalk, or simply find a quiet spot by the water before heading home for dinner. When you want a beach day, you don't have to own a beach house to enjoy one. Residents have access to a private beach club on Oak Island with dedicated parking and direct beach access. You get all the fun of spending the day at the beach without another property to maintain, insure, furnish, or worry about every time a hurricane spins up. That's a pretty good trade. Need even more room? The adjoining homesite is also available, creating a rare opportunity to own nearly three-quarters of an acre in one of the community's most desirable locations. When you're building your forever home, don't just choose a lot. Choose the life that comes with it.
