Tucked away near the end of Shinn Point Road in coveted Marywood, this classic 4-
bedroom, 3.5-bath brick residence offers an exceptional opportunity in one of
Wilmington's most established and desirable neighborhoods. Surrounded by mature
hardwoods and lush landscaping, the property enjoys a wonderfully private setting just
moments from the Intracoastal Waterway and minutes from Wrightsville Beach. There is
something particularly appealing about this part of Shinn Point Road. While the home
does not have water views, its proximity to the Intracoastal is unmistakable--you can
feel the coastal setting in the mature landscape, quiet streets and relaxed atmosphere
of the neighborhood. Inside, the home offers a gracious traditional floor plan that feels
especially relevant today. As homeowners rediscover the value of dedicated spaces,
this layout provides rooms for entertaining, working, reading, watching television and
gathering together without asking one room to serve every purpose. At the heart of the
first floor, the spacious kitchen and breakfast area flow naturally into the family room,
creating an inviting everyday living space. A formal dining room provides a beautiful
setting for dinners and celebrations, while a separate study offers the privacy and
flexibility increasingly sought after for a home office, library or quiet retreat. Two
staircases provide convenient access to the second floor. The main staircase leads to
three guest bedrooms and the primary suite, complete with a walk-in closet and en suite
bath. A rear staircase provides direct access to the generous bonus room, which also
connects to the bedroom wing and offers tremendous flexibility as a media room,
playroom, second office or additional gathering space. Outdoor living is a highlight of
the property. A spacious screened porch opens to a large deck overlooking the private
backyard, creating an ideal setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining or evenings with
friends. Towering hardwoods and established landscaping give the property a sense of
permanence and privacy that simply cannot be recreated overnight. An oversized
garage provides abundant space for vehicles, storage and a substantial workshop area,
while the crawlspace has recently undergone professional improvements by
Crawlspace Concepts. With its timeless brick exterior, generous proportions, mature
grounds and highly desirable Marywood location, this is a home with excellent bones
and tremendous potential. Thoughtful updates will allow the next owner to make it their
own while preserving the character and quality that make established homes like this
increasingly difficult to find. Close to the Intracoastal Waterway, Wrightsville Beach,
Mayfaire and the best of Wilmington, this is an opportunity to create something special
in a location that has long been one of the area's most sought-after places to call home.
