NOT ALL NEW CONSTRUCTION IS CREATED EQUAL! Welcome to 634 Pelican Circle SE, an extraordinary 3BR/2BA custom-designed home offering 1,768 heated SF in gated River Run Plantation! Thoughtfully envisioned and personally curated by its owners, every architectural detail, material, fixture, and finish was intentionally selected to create a home that truly stands apart. Beautifully brought to life by Brandon Construction Group, a 2025 Parade of Homes Diamond Award winner and WECT Best of the Cape Fear 2025 Best Home Builder, this home showcases an exceptional combination of thoughtful design, quality materials, and outstanding craftsmanship. From the architectural details to the carefully selected finishes, this home offers a level of individuality and attention to detail that sets it apart from typical new construction. An impressive 8' front door opens to 10' ceilings throughout the main living areas, gorgeous 9'' wide LVP flooring, designer lighting, and exceptional architectural details. The living room showcases an 11' coffered ceiling with accent lighting and a 60'' electric fireplace with custom shiplap surround. An elegant 11' tray ceiling elevates the dining area. THE KITCHEN IS A SHOWSTOPPER! Solid wood cabinetry, quartz countertops with full-height quartz backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, and a 10' island with touchless Delta faucet create a space that's as functional as it is beautiful. Enjoy a GE slide-in double-oven range, dishwasher, under-counter touch-drawer microwave, pantry, and a dedicated beverage station with wine/beverage cooler, solid wood shelving, and accent lighting. The primary suite feels like a private retreat, featuring a spa-inspired bath with abundant cabinetry, dual vanities, quartz countertops, and a zero-entry tiled shower with rain head, handheld shower, and built-in bench. The walk-in closet features wood shelving. Two spacious guest bedrooms include one with a vaulted ceiling; the guest bath offers a deep tub with tile surround. A dedicated laundry room and TWO convenient drop zones add practical storage and organization. Delta plumbing fixtures and carefully chosen finishes continue throughout. OUTDOOR LIVING IS JUST AS IMPRESSIVE! Carefully situated on an approximately quarter-acre lot to maximize privacy, the home backs to privately owned wooded land. Relax or entertain on the expansive wraparound screened porch with 10' ceilings, tongue-and-groove wood ceilings, and ceiling fans. The welcoming front porch also features tongue-and-groove ceilings. Beautiful landscaping and irrigation complete the setting. STORAGE YOU HAVE TO SEE! The approximately 581 SF two-car garage offers space for a workshop or storage, plus access to an exceptionally spacious, FULLY FLOORED attic storage area. The roof trusses were designed with framing provisions for a FUTURE cargo lift (lift not installed). Concrete slab foundation and onsite septic. What truly sets this home apart is the attention given to both beauty and everyday living. From the impressive ceiling heights and architectural details to the carefully planned storage, functional layout, and inviting outdoor spaces, every element was thoughtfully considered. The result is a home that feels far more expansive than its square footage suggests, with the character and finishes of a much larger custom residence. River Run Plantation residents enjoy a gated entrance, pool, clubhouse, tennis/pickleball and basketball courts, gated boat/RV storage, a 400' fishing pier on the Lockwood Folly River, and canoe/kayak launch, with POA dues of approximately $815/year. Just 13 miles to Oak Island beaches, 16 miles to historic Southport, 17 miles to Holden Beach, and 2.6 miles to the Sunset Harbor public boat ramp. QUALITY YOU CAN SEE. CRAFTSMANSHIP YOU CAN FEEL. Come experience the difference at 634 Pelican Circle SE!

A rare opportunity to put down roots in the heart of Midtown Wilmington--with an in-ground pool, separate apartment, and possibilities that extend well beyond the typical single-family home. The main residence offers three bedrooms and two baths with a comfortable mix of character and functionality. At the center of the home is a chef's kitchen featuring granite countertops, rich wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a center island, and plenty of room to gather. Two distinct living spaces provide flexibility for both everyday life and entertaining--a more formal living area alongside a relaxed family room with a fireplace and built-in cabinetry. Outside, the private in-ground pool creates an unexpected retreat right in the middle of Wilmington. Whether it's a quiet afternoon at home or a weekend spent entertaining friends, having your own pool adds a lifestyle element that's especially appealing in this convenient Midtown location. Adding another dimension to the property is a separate one-bedroom, one-bath apartment above the detached garage, complete with its own kitchen, living space, and private entrance. This setup creates possibilities for rental income, extended family, guests, a private workspace, or simply having a completely separate space from the main residence. And for someone with a bigger vision, there is more to explore. The adjoining properties are also being offered for sale, creating a rare opportunity to assemble multiple connecting tracts in one of Wilmington's growing central locations. Purchase this property independently or explore the potential for a larger investment, multigenerational property, or long-term legacy holding. Located in the established Winter Park area of Midtown Wilmington, you're minutes from UNCW, Long Leaf Park, Oleander Drive and College Road, with convenient access to downtown Wilmington and Wrightsville Beach. It's a property that works as a home today while offering flexibility for how you may want to use it in the future.
