RENOVATED, MOVE-IN READY AND BEAUTIFULLY UPDATED! Set on a very private corner lot with a fully fenced backyard, this easy living one level residence checks all the boxes with an open floor plan, soaring ceilings, a stunning new luxury kitchen, beautifully renovated upscale bathrooms and an incredible oversized screened porch that extends the living space outdoors. Inside, real hardwood flooring flows through the main living area, dining room, kitchen and primary bedroom, while the inviting corner fireplace creates a warm focal point in the spacious living room. Thoughtful improvements continue well beyond the finishes, including a newer roof, insulated hurricane-rated garage door and a fully encapsulated crawl space with a commercial-grade dehumidifier plus temperature and moisture monitoring system. Best of all, the home is not located in a flood zone. Enjoy all the amenities and lifestyle St. James is known for, including championship golf, multiple clubhouses and restaurants, indoor and outdoor pools, fitness facilities, tennis and pickleball, walking and biking trails, parks, a full-service marina on the Intracoastal Waterway and the private St. James Beach Club on Oak Island. Whether you're headed to the beach, boating for the day, meeting friends for dinner or simply enjoying your own private backyard, this location makes coastal living easy, just minutes from historic downtown Southport and Oak Island, with Wilmington and its international airport an easy drive away. Beautifully renovated, meticulously maintained and truly ready to enjoy from day one!
