Inside, the open-concept layout creates an easy flow for gathering, dining, and everyday living. The kitchen anchors the main living area with a spacious center island, walk-in pantry, and seamless connection to the dining area and living room. The main level includes three bedrooms and two and a half baths, offering flexible space for guests, family, or working from home. Upstairs, a generous bonus room with a full bath provides even more versatility as a guest suite, media room, home office, or private retreat. Thoughtful details throughout the home include 10-foot ceilings in the bedrooms, 8-foot doors, expansive 6-foot windows, and a covered screened porch that invites you to slow down and enjoy the peaceful setting. A two-car garage offers excellent storage, while energy-efficient features such as a Trane 18 SEER XV high-efficiency HVAC system and spray foam insulation in the attic, exterior walls, and garage ceiling help support year-round comfort, cooler storage options and lower energy costs. Beyond the home, Sunset Reach offers a lifestyle centered around the outdoors. Start the morning with a walk or bike ride along the community trails, launch a kayak or paddleboard from the 12-acre interior lake, enjoy time at the riverfront marina where boat slips are available for purchase, or play a round of pickleball close to home. With a planned lakeside pool, clubhouse, and fitness room still to come, Sunset Reach continues to grow as one of the Wilmington area's most distinctive riverfront communities.
