Welcome to this beautifully maintained home in Leland, offering a thoughtful layout, extensive updates, and exceptional privacy. Set on an oversized homesite in a wooded community just minutes from downtown Wilmington, this property combines comfort, convenience, and versatile living spaces. Recent improvements include finishing the fifth bedroom, adding a second-floor kitchenette, installing a built-in bookshelf in the living room, screening the rear porch, adding garage shelving, replacing the internal components of the gas fireplace, and installing a new roof. A large generator provides uninterrupted power following a storm. The spacious kitchen is designed for gathering and entertaining, while soaring 12-foot ceilings create an open and airy atmosphere throughout the main living areas. The primary suite is thoughtfully positioned on the main level, separated from the additional first-floor bedrooms for added privacy. Upstairs, flexible living space and the kitchenette provide options for guests, hobbies, or everyday convenience. Step outside to enjoy the screened porch overlooking a remarkably private backyard. Mature trees behind the property and additional landscaping and fencing along the sides create a peaceful outdoor setting. Community amenities include a pool, fitness center, and access to docks along the Brunswick River. Everyday conveniences are close by, including shopping, dining, banking, pharmacies, a library, and a hardware store.
