Introducing 2533 Shandy Lane, an extraordinary custom residence on nearly an acre in Wilmington's coveted Shandy Point enclave, distinguished by its thoughtful architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and rare combination of privacy, space, and access to the Intracoastal Waterway. Designed by architect Chip Hemingway and built by Stone Montgomery Construction in 2023, the home represents the rare opportunity to step directly into a thoughtfully conceived custom residence without the time, expense, and uncertainty of an 18 month building process. The vision is complete. The craftsmanship is finished. All that remains is to arrive and enjoy it. From the moment you enter, the quality is unmistakable. White oak herringbone floors flow throughout the main level, complemented by custom millwork, cabinetry, built ins, and carefully considered architectural details. Tongue and groove cypress brings warmth and texture throughout the interior and exterior living spaces, while custom mahogany doors and Andersen windows create a sense of permanence and understated elegance. A beautifully appointed home office with a white oak coffered ceiling provides a quiet space to work, retreat, or simply close the door on the rest of the world. The interiors, designed by Jennifer Kraner with Big Sky Design, strike a balance between sophistication and comfort. The aesthetic is refined without being formal, allowing the home to feel equally appropriate for a quiet morning at home or an evening entertaining family and friends. The grounds, designed by Shep Butler and installed by Trey Hughes, create a private landscape that captures the timeless Southern sensibility of Shandy. At the heart of the outdoor experience is a 75 foot lap pool with heated spa and automatic cover, framed by a custom stone terrace that invites long afternoons in the sun, quiet morning swims, and evenings gathered outdoors. A full putting green and sand bunker bring another dimension of recreation to the property, creating an experience that feels more like a private retreat than a backyard. A protected 26 foot deep water boat slip directly on Bradley Creek places boating at the center of daily life. No marina commute. No trailering. Just a short walk from home to the community dock, where your boat is ready whenever the mood strikes. It is the kind of effortless access to the water that makes boating feel less like an activity and more like part of the rhythm of everyday life. The outdoor living spaces extend naturally from the architecture, with a full porch and patio outfitted with infrared ceiling heaters for year round enjoyment. The grounds are fully fenced with an automatic gate, creating an added layer of privacy and allowing the property to function as a true personal retreat. A detached garage provides additional flexibility, with separate living quarters above and custom cabinetry and built ins continuing the level of craftsmanship found throughout the main residence. Behind the scenes, the home is equally well considered, with a sealed crawlspace and attic, tankless water heaters with recirculating system, buried propane service, architectural shingle roofing with aluminum accents, Hardie fiber cement siding, and generator ready infrastructure. But ultimately, 2533 Shandy Lane is about more than architecture, finishes, or amenities. It is about a particular way of living. It is the luxury of having nearly an acre of privacy in one of Wilmington's most desirable enclaves. It is an early morning swim followed by coffee on the porch. A short walk to the community dock and gazebo, and an afternoon spent on the water. A few rounds on the putting green before dinner. And an evening spent with friends as the sun fades over Bradley Creek. 2533 Shandy Lane is a finished vision in one of Wilmington's most distinctive settings. A custom home without the wait. A private retreat without sacrificing access to the water. This is Shandy living at its finest.

The Addie P. McClammy House, c. 1881. Built as one of a pair of twin Victorian cottages on South Front Street, this bracketed vernacular cottage was moved to this property in 1983, restored, and honored with a Historic Wilmington Foundation plaque. It was later moved forward from the back of the lot to its current spot facing 2nd Street. Today it sits on one of the most sought-after residential blocks in Wilmington's Historic District, south of Market and west of 3rd, just two blocks from the Riverwalk. Inside, the character is authentic: heart pine floors, tall ceilings in the main rooms, decorative spindle fretwork over the doorways, classic trim, a dining room with built-in hutch cabinetry and French doors, and arched built-in bookshelves in the living room. The home offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bath in 816 heated square feet. The kitchen and bath are functional but dated, giving the next owner the opportunity to update them to their own taste. Relax on the covered front porch overlooking 2nd Street, or on the back porch facing the garden, with brick walkways and mature landscaping. The lot is what sets this property apart. The home sits on an L-shaped parcel of approximately 5,195 square feet, made up of the house lot and a second rear lot that convey together. Accessed from Craig's Alley, the rear lot provides ample off-street parking, a rare find this close to the river, along with room to explore an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or an addition, subject to City of Wilmington and Historic Preservation approval. Roof (2017), HVAC (2012), and water heater (2023). No hazardous flood zone. No HOA. From your front door, stroll to the Riverwalk, Front Street's restaurants and shops, and the Castle Street district. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a downtown second home, or an investment with room to grow, this is a rare chance to own a piece of Wilmington history.

Location, location, location! Tucked into a lovely, established neighborhood, this 3-bedroom home puts you minutes from historic downtown Wilmington, the Riverwalk, Wrightsville Beach, UNCW, Mayfaire Town Center and a wide range of shopping, dining and everyday conveniences. It's the kind of central spot that makes getting around town easy, whether you're headed to the beach for the afternoon, downtown for dinner or across town for work. The curb appeal starts with a lovely sidewalk approach, mature trees and off-street parking. The home sits on a nice-sized lot with something you don't find very often: alley access along the back of the property. A drive-thru garage adds even more flexibility, making it easy to pull through, store equipment or set up a workshop. A separate tool shed and an exterior storage room give you extra space for yard tools, bikes and beach gear. With a lot this size, there may even be room to expand or add a future accessory dwelling, subject to city approval. Step inside and you'll find real hardwood floors that carry through the living areas and bedrooms, along with crown molding and ceiling fans. The spacious living room is anchored by a handsome fireplace with gas logs, framed by a classic mantel and paired with charming built-in shelving. The living room opens into the dining area, creating a nice flow for gatherings and holidays. The galley-style kitchen has been updated over the years with solid-surface countertops, a double sink, plenty of oak cabinetry including glass-front uppers, a tile backsplash and white appliances. At the end of the kitchen, a bright breakfast nook with corner windows looks out to the front yard and makes a great spot for morning coffee. Each of the three bedrooms has hardwood flooring, a ceiling fan, a closet and good natural light, with corner windows in two of the rooms. The bathroom features a vanity with storage, a tub/shower combination and plantation shutters. The utility room off the kitchen is lined with windows and offers laundry space plus room for a freezer, storage, hobbies or a future sunroom. It adds extra heated space that was not counted in the square footage due to its concrete flooring, so there's more room here than the numbers suggest. You'll also appreciate several features that bring peace of mind. A whole-house generator keeps the home running when the power goes out, a real plus during storm season. The crawl space has been sealed, and the low-maintenance vinyl siding means less time spent on exterior upkeep and more time enjoying your weekends at the beach or downtown. Across the street sits a large community church, adding to the friendly, neighborhood feel. The surrounding streets are lined with established homes and mature trees, and it's an area where people enjoy walking, visiting with neighbors and being close to everything Wilmington has to offer. Here's the opportunity: this is a fixer-upper, and it's priced accordingly. The home is priced incredibly well to allow you to create instant equity by bringing your own vision and ideas, whether that means refinishing the floors, updating the kitchen and bath, adding your own finishes or reimagining the outdoor spaces. First-time buyers looking to build value, buyers who have wanted to get into this part of town, and investors alike will want to take a close look. Good locations like this one are hard to come by, and the bones are here for you to make it your own. To make your decision easier, a just-completed home inspection and pest inspection are available for review, so you can go in with your eyes open and plan your updates with confidence. The home is being sold as-is. Bring your ideas, your tool belt and your imagination, and schedule your showing today!
