Our firm has been busy this year with our waterfront buyers and sellers. The market is hotter than ever and demand is high for unique properties with stunning views.
Last week, Mandy Mattox, listing agent on 116 Parmele Boulevard in Wrightsville Beach, celebrated a successful closing with her seller. This stunning property closed for $2,552,687!
What made this property so special was the unique location, which was waterfront on Big Lollipop Bay allowing for stunning sunsets and sunrises. The sales price was a testament to the value added by the boat ramp that was grandfathered in as well as 4 deep water boat slips. This closing set an all time record for highest sales price at Lanier Property Group and puts Mandy in the company of top producing agents in our area.
In March, Stephanie Lanier helped buyers close on 6320 Head Road, a $1,335,000 dollar waterfront property with sweeping views of Hewlett’s Creek on 3.2 acres, and four deep water boat slips, including a brand new dock and a two bedroom guest cottage on the property.
Right down the creek Stephanie currently is marketing Osprey Landing, a waterfront community with half acre lots and proposed boat slips. Lot prices and final details are expected soon and demand is high for water access and views in the heart of Wilmington. Click on the link for more details or to sign up for email updates.
