Premier Neighborhoods and Enclaves

Porters Neck Plantation Country Club Sections

The gated sections surrounding the Porters Neck Country Club golf course represent the community's most coveted addresses. Fairway-fronting lots along Porters Neck Road offer direct views of the 18-hole Tom Fazio-designed course, and homes here rarely sit on fewer than half an acre. The privacy afforded by the club's controlled access creates a distinct residential character that serious luxury buyers recognize immediately.

Headwater Cove and Waterfront Lots

For buyers prioritizing water access, the waterfront enclaves within Porters Neck Plantation front tidal creeks and the Intracoastal Waterway. Headwater Cove is among the most sought-after streets, where deep-water lots allow private docking and direct boating access to the Atlantic via Masonboro Inlet. These properties command a meaningful premium over comparable inland homes within the same community.

Lifestyle and Amenities

Day-to-day life in Porters Neck Plantation centers on the country club, which offers golf, tennis, a fitness center, and dining within a private membership setting. Residents are approximately 15 minutes by car from Mayfaire Town Center, which supplies high-end retail and dining options, and roughly 20 minutes from historic downtown Wilmington. Wrightsville Beach sits within a 20-minute drive, making ocean access a routine convenience rather than an occasion. The community falls within the Laney High School district, part of New Hanover County Schools, which consistently draws positive attention from relocating families.

Beach days out front. Boat days out back. At 103 McLeod Avenue, you don't have to choose between the two. Positioned on the South End of Topsail Beach directly across from Public Beach Access 19 with a canal and dock just beyond the back deck, this rare dual-water home makes it easy to spend the day boating, fishing, or exploring the surrounding waterways -- then trade the boat for bare feet and head across the street to the beach. Fully renovated in 2018 and exceptionally maintained, the home is filled with natural light and water views from nearly every room. Six decks capture both ocean and canal views, with Atlantic sunrises on one side and Intracoastal sunsets on the other. The entire top floor is devoted to an impressive owner's retreat with a primary bedroom and bath, sitting room, study, lounge, and separate ocean- and canal-facing decks. An additional ensuite bedroom and second living room provide another comfortable space for guests, while gathering areas throughout the home make it equally suited for quiet weekends or a house full of family and friends. Offered fully furnished and turnkey, with an EV charger, outdoor shower, generous garage storage and workshop space. Whether you're looking for a primary residence, second home, or vacation rental, 103 McLeod offers something increasingly hard to find on Topsail: the boating lifestyle and the beach lifestyle, all in one address.
