Wilmington has more ways to live on the water than almost anywhere on the North Carolina coast: deep-water lots on the Intracoastal Waterway, creekfront homes off Masonboro and Middle Sound, condos on the Cape Fear River downtown and a handful of oceanfront homes on private Figure Eight Island. Below you will find every Wilmington home listed in the MLS as waterfront, updated throughout the day.
Wilmington has the largest selection of waterfront homes, condos and townhomes in the area, from river and marsh-front condos to deep-water estates. Single-family homes on navigable water with a dock sit at the top of the market.

Yes. Docks, piers, boat lifts and bulkheads in North Carolina coastal waters need a CAMA permit from the NC Division of Coastal Management, and many HOAs have their own approval process as well.
Only on Figure Eight Island, a private barrier island. Most Wilmington buyers who want the ocean look at Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach or Kure Beach, all within about 20 to 30 minutes.
