Located in the desirable Carleton Place community, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath brick townhome offers comfortable, low-maintenance living on one level, within walking distance of anywhere on the UNCW campus (about 1 mile to Randall Library). Vaulted ceilings and two skylights make the living room bright and spacious, and a secluded, fenced backyard is made for entertaining or relaxing. The townhome also features a two car parking pad and a one car garage; great for a workshop or storage. Behind the townhome, walking & biking paths wind through a maintained pine forest and the Gary Shell Cross-City Trail is close by. A new HVAC unit was installed in October of 2024. The Carleton Place HOA maintains the roof, exterior and front lawn and covers trash and recycling (master insurance included). Residents enjoy the community pool and clubhouse, just minutes away from Wrightsville Beach, Mayfaire shopping, restaurants and downtown Wilmington. The location delivers a rare mix of campus, recreation and beach making this an excellent primary residence or investment property.
