828 Santa Maria AVE Wilmington, NC 28411

You just found the hidden gem of Santa Maria! Properties here so rarely come on the market in this coastal hideaway, that most residents don't even know this paradise even exists. The moment you turn down the sandy road tunneling through the coastal forest, you'll know you're in a very special place. This oasis is the perfect blend of privacy, nature, custom construction, boating and sanctuary. When you tour this amazing property, be sure to walk down to the water's edge to see the 30 ft boat slip and enjoy a seat at the waterfront deck. Your discovery only gets better as you step inside this builder's custom home. No compromises were made in the construction of this home featuring soaring ceilings, 8 ft french doors, salvaged cypress wide plank flooring, 2x6 construction, geothermal HVAC system, tankless water heater, elevator, heated plunge pool, and so much more. The split bedroom floor plan features a large luxurious owner's suite on one side of the home with double walk-in closets, separate tub and frameless glass spa shower. The owner's suite also has a private entrance to the rear porch. Bedrooms, bathroom and laundry are located on the opposite side of the home. The center of the home features a wide open layout integrating the kitchen, causal dining, and large living room into one expanse filled with natural lighting. The current formal dining could also serve as an appropriate sitting room or office. Step out of any one of the 5 french doors on the back of this home and you find yourself on the back covered porch that runs the entire length of the house. This is one of three covered porches that combined offer almost 1,200 sq ft of porch and covered patio space. Let your imagination run wild when you explore the lower level garage that extends under the entire footprint of the house. This 2,300 sq ft space offers tremendous opportunity for storage or possible finished living/guest space expansion. Call today to schedule your tour of this rare opportunity.
