Tucked within the Cottages at Hewletts Creek, this custom-built residence (offered by its original owners) presents a rare opportunity to own in a quaint community where homes seldom become available. Set on an expansive, beautifully manicured lot, the property makes a striking first impression with a circular driveway, extended drive for additional parking, and classic Cape Cod architecture that exudes timeless appeal. Inside, the home has nearly 3,300 square feet and showcases quality craftsmanship and an ideal layout. Gorgeous white oak hardwoods span the main living areas, complemented by upgraded blinds and a welcoming foyer that sets the tone for the home. Just off the entry, a versatile flex room (easily functioning as a bedroom, office, or playroom) offers direct access to a full bath that is also conveniently positioned for guests. The spacious laundry room features counters and cabinet space, while a dedicated office with custom built-ins provides the perfect work-from-home setup. The living room is centered around a gas log fireplace with a marble surround and built-ins on either side, along with a wall of windows that flood the space with natural light and frame views of the backyard. The kitchen offers generous counter space, ample cabinetry, bar seating, and an attached dining area. The main-level primary suite is complete with a huge walk-in closet, an ensuite bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower, as well as private access to the screened-in porch. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms each enjoy their own en-suite baths, accompanied by a spacious bonus room. Storage is abundant, with expansive under-stair storage (perfect for seasonal decor) and a large walk-in attic on the second floor offering even more flexibility. Outdoor living is just as exceptional, with a screened-in porch for year-round enjoyment, an additional covered porch, and a patio area that seamlessly connects to the detached garage via a concrete pathway. The detached garage offers incredible potential, with a second-floor space already floored and ready to be finished to suit your needs, whether as a guest suite, studio, or additional living area. Ideally located off Greenville Loop Road, this home offers quick access to shopping, dining, and the beaches of Wrightsville.
