1 Beds ⋅ 1 Baths ⋅ 100603095 MLS ⋅ Banks Channel Condominiums BLDG.
A rare opportunity to enjoy the very best of Wrightsville Beach -- from the water. Located directly on Banks Channel, this waterfront property offers something increasingly difficult to find on Wrightsville Beach: an assigned boat slip, a private sound-front beach, unobstructed sunset views and the Atlantic Ocean just a short walk away. The sunsets here are truly special. With wide-open western views across Banks Channel, enjoy spectacular, unobstructed sunsets from both the property and the dock -- the same stretch of Wrightsville Beach where locals and visitors gather in the evenings simply to watch the sun go down. Boaters will appreciate the assigned inside slip accommodating up to a 26-foot vessel. From your dock, you're approximately five minutes by boat from Masonboro Island, the largest undisturbed barrier island on the southern North Carolina coast. Accessible only by boat, this remarkable 5,653-acre nature reserve offers miles of undeveloped beaches and an incredible place to spend the day swimming, surfing, fishing or simply enjoying one of the area's most beautiful natural destinations. Masonboro Inlet is also approximately five minutes away by boat, putting exceptional inshore and offshore fishing within easy reach. Whether heading out for a day on the water, fishing from the dock or taking the boat over to Masonboro Island, this location makes it remarkably easy to enjoy the coastal lifestyle. Prefer to stay closer to home? Spend the day relaxing on the community's private sound-front beach along Banks Channel, launch a kayak or paddleboard, or fish right from the dock. When you're ready for the ocean, it's only a short walk to the beach. Walk over for a swim, enjoy dinner and seasonal live music on Crystal Pier at Oceanic, or stop by SUNdays for coffee and a taste of the local Wrightsville Beach community. Banks Channel Condos is an intimate waterfront community of just 12 units, offering a quieter setting that feels worlds away while keeping some of the best of Wrightsville Beach within walking distance. The property also offers off-street parking and onsite laundry. Inside, the residence features wood and tile flooring and an easy, low-maintenance coastal lifestyle. Annual HOA dues are just $3,822 and cover nearly all routine property expenses, leaving owners responsible primarily for electricity and cable/Wi-Fi. Opportunities combining Banks Channel frontage, an assigned boat slip, private sound-front beach, unobstructed sunset views and walkability to the Atlantic Ocean are exceptionally hard to find on Wrightsville Beach. Come for the beach. Stay for the sunsets. And keep your boat just steps from your door.

One level, no stairs, and about as low maintenance as coastal living gets. This 3 bedroom, 2 bath all-brick townhome in Motts Forest at The Village at Motts Landing is the kind of home you can lock up, travel from, and come back to exactly as you left it. Built by Premier Homes, the 1,953 square foot floor plan lives large and easy. Every room sits on a single level, with wide, open living space and no steps between you and any part of the home. The primary suite occupies one side while the two guest bedrooms are tucked into their own private wing -- room for company when it comes, or a dedicated home office without giving up the guest room. The entry makes an impression: a soaring foyer ceiling and an edged glass front door with side panels and a transom that pulls light deep inside. The living room has a coffered beam ceiling, a built-in bookcase and a gas fireplace, and flows into the kitchen and formal dining room. The kitchen is finished with upgraded 42-inch cabinetry, extended granite countertops, brand new appliances and a custom glass tile backsplash lit by under-cabinet lighting. The home has just been refreshed top to bottom under the direction of a decorator. The home has been repainted in a current, move-in-ready palette, new lighting fixtures were chosen throughout as part of that same designer selection, and brand new carpet is in all bedrooms. Move in and enjoy it. The primary bedroom is generous enough for a seating area, with a tray ceiling, its own door to the sunroom, and two walk-in closets with custom wood shelving. A covered front porch greets you, and out back a glass-enclosed sunroom and patio extend the living space over mature landscaping, usable nearly year-round in Wilmington's mild coastal climate. The oversized two-car garage adds a heated storage room for climate-sensitive items, hobbies or seasonal decor. What sets Motts Landing apart is what you stop doing. The HOA covers exterior maintenance, lawn and grounds care, master insurance and management, so weekends belong to you, not the to-do list. Amenities are the kind that usually come with a resort: two clubhouses, two swimming pools, a fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, and an active social calendar for anyone who wants it. Sidewalks run throughout the neighborhood, and this part of south Wilmington is rich in green space. River Road Park, with river frontage and kayak and canoe access, is right up the road, and Veterans Park, Halyburton Park and its shaded nature preserve trail, the Cross City Trail and Carolina Beach State Park are all an easy drive. Day to day, everything is close. Grocery stores, pharmacies and banks sit minutes up Carolina Beach Road. For a better afternoon out, The Pointe at Barclay and Mayfaire Town Center offer boutique shopping, national retailers, movie theaters and a deep bench of restaurants. Downtown Wilmington adds riverfront dining, galleries, live theater and the Riverwalk, while Carolina Beach and Wrightsville Beach are both short drives for fresh seafood, sunsets and toes in the sand. Several golf courses are nearby, and Novant Health New Hanover Regional Medical Center puts world-class care and specialists within easy reach. The home sits outside Wilmington city limits in New Hanover County, which means no city property taxes. The Village at Motts Landing is one of south Wilmington's most recognizable communities, known for timeless brick homes, mature landscaping and thoughtfully designed streetscapes rather than rows of identical houses. Homes here seldom combine true one-story living, all-brick construction, a glass-enclosed sunroom, an oversized garage, and a full designer refresh already done. If you have been looking for a Wilmington townhome with a first-floor primary suite, an attached two-car garage, exterior upkeep handled for you and resort-style amenities, 327 Motts Forest Road deserves a look. Schedule your showing today.
