Welcome to a stunning semi-custom Logan-built home nestled in the prestigious gated waterfront community of Helms Port. Ideally located on the Intracoastal Waterway, this peaceful neighborhood offers private marina access and a luxurious coastal lifestyle about 15 minutes to Carolina Beach and 20 to Wrightsville Beach. This impeccably maintained, one-owner home backs to UNCW marine property, providing a serene and private backyard oasis beautifully landscaped with an irrigation system. Inside, the home offers 10+ foot ceilings, custom wainscoting, and hand-crafted Rose Hill plantation shutters made from North Carolina-sourced wood. Rich bamboo flooring flows throughout the main living areas, complemented by a natural gas fireplace and a sunlit sitting room. The home's layout is thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring an open flow between the living room, kitchen, eat-in dining area, formal dining room, and adjoining sitting room. This seamless connection of spaces creates a warm, welcoming environment ideal for gatherings or simply relaxing at home. The chef's kitchen features quiet Bosch appliances, a natural gas stove, a large center island, granite countertops, and an eat-in breakfast area, perfect for casual meals or morning coffee. The spacious primary suite includes a tiled walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a generous walk-in closet. Storage is abundant with large closets and a walk-in attic. The 2.5-car garage offers room for vehicles, a golf cart, or hobby space. Upstairs, the FROG includes a full bathroom—ideal for guests or a home office. One of the owners' favorite features is the backyard patio—a peaceful space for dining al fresco and sipping drinks at sunset. They enjoy the sense of community, with friendships and neighborly gatherings enriching daily life. This rare opportunity offers both luxury and lifestyle in one of Wilmington's most sought-after waterfront communities.
