Description

Build your dream coastal home in Preservation Point, just a mile by car or boat from historic downtown Wilmington, and one of the area's most desirable gated waterfront communities! This beautiful .30-acre marshfront homesite offers an incredible view and a rare combination of privacy, space, and access to an amazing neighborhood lifestyle. The lot is partially cleared and tucked alongside a drainage easement, providing additional open space and separation from the neighboring homesite. This offers an added sense of privacy and breathing room that is especially appealing in a coastal community. Across the street, a landscaped community common area with bench seating provides an attractive open space directly across from the homesite. Even better, this homesite is just around the corner from the community pool and clubhouse. The main amenity area is designed for both relaxation and entertaining, featuring a resort-style swimming pool and beautifully appointed clubhouse with a pool table, fitness room, indoor and outdoor bars, dining and gathering spaces, and inviting outdoor areas for enjoying the coastal lifestyle. The community also features walking trails and a boardwalk leading toward the waterfront and island amenities. Just across the boardwalk, Sunset Island- the community's private approximately 7-acre island- takes the Preservation Point lifestyle to another level. Residents can enjoy pickleball/tennis, a putting green, disc golf, a dog park, kayak launch, swings, picnic tables, grills, a covered gathering structure with restrooms, dining and gathering areas, and an outdoor fireplace, all surrounded by beautiful natural scenery and water views. For those who love being on the water, boat ownership is completely optional- you do not have to purchase a boat slip with this homesite. Boat slips are located just off Sunset Island and are available for separate purchase at an affordable price, giving boat owners convenient access to the water while keeping this particular homesite free from the additional cost of a slip if one is not desired. And from this homesite, Sunset Island and the boat slips are just around the corner, making waterfront recreation incredibly convenient. With a reasonable HOA, stunning natural surroundings, marshfront views, extensive amenities, and a location just a mile from historic downtown Wilmington, Preservation Point offers a unique opportunity to build a home that fits your vision while enjoying an exceptional coastal lifestyle. The community is also conveniently located near shopping, dining, area beaches, and Wilmington International Airport. This lot is also just outside city limits, offering the benefit of lower taxes. Bring your plans and your vision to 1608 Herons View Drive and make Preservation Point home!
