Welcome to this enchanted cottage nestled in a cul-de-sac of the highly desirable subdivision of Belvedere and surrounded by breath-taking private gardens. You will be amazed from the moment of arrival. A lovely southern porch with a swing invites you to sit down and enjoy this little piece of paradise.
As you enter, you will immediately admire gorgeous wooden Southern Yellow Pines floors. A spacious living room with nice built-ins welcomes you and feels as though it was made for cozy evenings with a nice glass of wine, reading your favorite author, playing family games, conducting deep conversations or just watching movies around the gas fireplace. A gourmet kitchen offers a new gas stove, a custom backsplash which matches the new cabinet hardware, a farm sink with a large arched window, a working island with a quartz countertop, solid wood custom cabinets with glistening granite composite counter tops, a spacious pantry, and a dining area that will make every chef happy. A deep laundry room with pocket doors has a lot of shelving for additional storage.
A private Master Suite with a lovely designer's walk-in closet offers gorgeous views of your pool and private backyard through a set of quadruple sliding glass doors which allows you to watch wildlife passing by - an abundance of birds, butterflies, fox, deer, owls, turtles, bunnies and opossums right from your bed.
The Master bathroom with spacious double vanities, a custom tiled shower with glass door, linen closet and heated floors will please every Bougee Lady. Treat yourself to a spa in the new self-standing cast iron porcelain tub with herbal teas from your own herbal garden. Two spare bedrooms with walk-in closets share a full bathroom. Enjoy the hot Carolina weather on a large trex deck or cool down on a screened-in and shaded patio, take a dip in your salt-water above ground pool, roast marshmallows at an already established fire pit, do some handy work at an extended shed or get wild with your gardening skills at this private piece of paradise loaded with evergreens and perennial plants. This is Southern Living at its finest!
In the detached garage the owners installed a loft for convenience of additional storage. A textured metal roof was installed in 2015, the home is on public water and the well supplies the landscaping needs, two rain barrels with rain gutters wirh leaf guards come handy as well. Take advantage of the instant hot water thanks to tankless water heaters, a full house water filtration system, encapsulated crawl space with a dehumidifier, a four-year-old Trane heating system, new carpet in the spare bedrooms, and a designated line from the garage for a generator. This property has it all.
The absolutely amazing location of this property is another attractive feature to consider. Situated in the coastal town of Hampstead, with a short commute to fabulous Kiwanis Park, highly rated schools, shopping, restaurants, many golf courses, ICWW access, Topsail Island and Wrightsville beaches, a University, and the city of Wilmington with a world class university, a tremendously growing network of businesses, and a historic river district.
