Property Description

Set along the storied Cape Fear River in Wilmington's coveted Shipwatch community, this Mediterranean-inspired retreat captures the timeless beauty of coastal Carolina living. Every detail of this home is designed for ease, elegance, and a deep connection to the water.

Step inside and you're welcomed by a sun-filled interior where sweeping river views steal the show. The open-concept living and dining areas flow effortlessly into the kitchen, creating a space that feels as natural for quiet mornings as it does for gatherings with friends. A central fireplace lends warmth and character, balancing the home's graceful architecture with everyday comfort.

Beyond the doors, the lifestyle continues outdoors—where a private in-ground pool overlooks the river, and a shared pier with deeded boat slip invites you to spend evenings on the water, watching the sun melt into the horizon. Set on nearly three-quarters of an acre, this homesite sits on one of the highest elevations in Shipwatch, offering both beauty and peace of mind.

Just minutes from Carolina Beach and downtown Wilmington, 8912 Shipwatch Drive offers a rare blend of refined design, riverfront serenity, and coastal convenience—a place where every sunset feels like coming home.
