In the very heart of Wilmington you will discover Masonboro Forest, a name that perfectly describes a community characterized by towering trees and lush landscaping. The coveted Masonboro area puts you within easy reach of the best that the city has to offer: sought-after schools, ICWW & boating access, multiple beaches, historic downtown, and seemingly endless options for shopping, dining, and entertainment . All of this yet NO city taxes! 5120 Nicholas Creek Circle is a stately brick home perched proudly on over a third of an acre in this picturesque community. A rocking chair front porch invites you in as sleek hardwood floors stretch out to welcome you. A striking, open staircase is a fitting introduction to the sophisticated spaces that await. Natural light pours in to the living room through an impressive wall of windows. The soaring ceiling gives the room its grandeur, as the fireplace anchors the space, keeping it cozy and inviting. The home itself seems to exude warmth and gives you a sense of comfort. Although space is abundant, it is not intimidating or overwhelming. There is still a sense of intimacy and a beautiful balance of casual elegance. The luxurious kitchen renovation was meticulously planned and then masterfully crafted using carefully selected finishes. This is truly the heart of the home, featuring a Thermador 36'' gas stove as well as an additional wall oven, rich cabinetry, chic granite counters, under cabinet lighting to highlight the exquisite backsplash, and a convenient pantry. The keeping room currently serves as a home office, but it is a versatile space that can be utilized in a way that best meets the needs of your lifestyle. A second fireplace and vaulted ceiling give this space its charm and unique character. The primary suite is a haven, featuring a sitting area with private access to the backyard sanctuary.
