Located in coveted Porters Neck and just minutes to Wrightsville Beach, this Craftsman style home will surely impress! The expansive ''rocking chair'' porch welcomes you into the gracious living room, with built-in cabinets and gas log fireplace. Brilliantly designed, a wide arch creates a division between living space and the kitchen area, allowing you to be part of the conversation but keeping the kitchen out of sight. This maintains the feel of the open floor plan and is perfect for casual dining and entertaining. The white kitchen features plenty of cabinets with metal pullouts, subway tile, Granite counters and a large center island. Stainless steel appliances include a wall oven, microwave, refrigerator, and gas cooktop. The dining room is large enough to comfortably sit 8 and is appointed with three pendant lights. Enjoy access to the charming, screened porch, lovely garden and fenced, private backyard. This unique floor plan offers two bedrooms on the main floor. The owner's suite is tucked away from the main living area. Here you will immediately be taken with the gorgeous, coffered and bead board ceilings and generous size. The owner's bath provides a double vanity, soaking tub, walk in shower and a large closet. The secondary bedroom on the main floor has a private bathroom and is conveniently located to the back of the house, creating privacy that is perfect for multigenerational living. A laundry room with drop zone completes the first floor. Upstairs you will find two additional large bedrooms that share a third full bath, and spacious bonus room that lends itself well to a den, home office/school or home gym. Completed with a 2-car garage serviced by a private residents' alley, this home lives large! The neighborhood is centered around a large common area with gazebo, and offers a community pool and clubhouse, and natural gas. Just minutes to new restaurants, shopping, golf at Porters Neck Country Club and the ICWW; you will love the location!
