Set along the shimmering edge of the Intracoastal Waterway, this is one of the rare opportunities to secure a true luxury home site in one of Hampstead's most established coastal communities. Offering panoramic ICW views and a deeded deep-water boat slip, this property captures the essence of coastal North Carolina living, where mornings begin on the water and evenings end with unobstructed sunset views. Situated on approximately one acre in Sloop Point Plantation, this buildable lot is ideally positioned for a custom waterfront residence. The property includes a deeded boat slip with a 10,000 lb lift and access to a private community dock, creating seamless entry to the Intracoastal Waterway for boating, fishing, and coastal cruising. The lot's size and configuration provide flexibility for new construction, allowing for a thoughtfully designed custom home that maximizes both privacy and water views. Located within an estate-style community, the setting is defined by mature, majestic live oak trees and a sense of quiet refinement that is increasingly difficult to find in Hampstead, NC. The lifestyle here is what sets it apart. Just minutes from Topsail Island's pristine beaches and a short drive to Wilmington, NC, this location offers the perfect balance of coastal tranquility and everyday convenience. Spend your days boating the ICW, teeing off at nearby golf courses, or enjoying local dining and waterfront experiences. Whether you envision a primary residence or a second home, this property places you at the center of one of the fastest-growing and most desirable regions in coastal North Carolina real estate. From a strategic perspective, opportunities like this are limited. Intracoastal Waterway frontage combined with a deeded boat slip and lift is increasingly scarce, especially within established communities like Sloop Point Plantation. With continued growth throughout Hampstead and the surrounding Wilmington market, this property represents both a lifestyle upgrade and a compelling investment opportunity. The ability to build a luxury custom home in a high-growth coastal market, while securing direct water access, positions this lot as a long-term asset with strong upside. What truly makes this offering unique is the combination of scale, setting, and access. Expansive ICW views, a full acre of land, mature coastal landscape, and immediate boating capability create a level of convenience and exclusivity that is rarely matched. This is not just land, it is a foundation for a legacy property designed around the coastal lifestyle. Opportunities for waterfront Hampstead, NC land with ICW access and a deeded boat slip are becoming increasingly rare. Private inquiries are encouraged for those looking to secure a premier luxury home site in one of coastal North Carolina's most sought-after locations.
