Architectural Caliber and Price Positioning

Waterstone homes are built to a standard that distinguishes them immediately from conventional Wilmington subdivisions. Buyers find custom and semi-custom construction featuring low-country influenced facades, brick and Hardie exterior detailing, open-concept interiors with coffered ceilings, and chef-grade kitchen appointments. Homes in Waterstone typically list between $550,000 and $950,000, with select larger estates reaching above $1 million depending on lot position and finish level. Floor plans generally range from 2,800 to 5,200 square feet, with generous lot sizes averaging between 0.3 and 0.6 acres. The community was developed primarily in the 2000s and 2010s, giving buyers newer construction with mature landscaping and established streetscapes.

Premier Neighborhoods and Enclaves Within Waterstone

Within the broader Waterstone community, certain streets and sections command consistent premium positioning. Homes along Waterstone Drive and within the Summerhouse section of the development draw particular interest for their larger lots, enhanced privacy buffers, and proximity to community amenities. Buyers who prioritize separation from neighboring homes often focus on the back sections of the community where wooded rear yards create a greater sense of seclusion. Waterstone is part of the Ogden area of northern Wilmington, placing residents within minutes of the Market Street corridor and easy access to I-140.

Lifestyle and Amenities for Discerning Buyers

Waterstone residents enjoy access to community amenities that reflect the neighborhood's upper-tier positioning, including a resort-style pool and clubhouse facilities. The community's location places it roughly 15 minutes from Wrightsville Beach, one of the most sought-after coastal destinations in the Southeast, and within 10 minutes of Mayfaire Town Center, Wilmington's premier outdoor retail and dining destination. For buyers who value both privacy at home and access to coastal lifestyle, this combination is difficult to match at any comparable price point in the Wilmington market. Airlie Gardens, a landmark coastal estate garden, is a short drive south, adding to the cultural texture of daily life here.

2295 Pine Mill Trl Ne, Leland
$5,100,000
Rare opportunity to acquire a fully leased well-located 20-townhome complex investment property in the rapidly growing Leland submarket, just minutes from Wilmington. This asset offers stable in-place income with significant upside potential in one of the fastest-growing coastal regions in the Southeast. The property consists of twenty 3 bedroom, 2 full bath individually parceled residential units with strong occupancy history and consistent rental demand driven by population growth, employment expansion, and continued migration to the coastal Carolina region. Leland has experienced substantial residential and commercial growth in recent years due to its proximity to Wilmington, access to major transportation corridors including US-17 and I-140, and its appeal as a more affordable alternative to nearby coastal markets. Brunswick County continues to see above-average population growth, supporting strong fundamentals for multifamily housing. The offering presents an attractive opportunity for private investors, owner-operators, and 1031 exchange buyers. With replacement costs continuing to rise and limited new supply in the immediate submarket, existing multifamily assets such as this property remain highly desirable among investors seeking long-term holds in high-growth coastal markets.
