Welcome to 9652 Sweet Apple Lane NE, located in the gated riverfront community of The Bluffs on the Cape Fear. This stately 5-bedroom, 3-bath home with an oversized side-entry two-car garage sits on a private half-acre lot backing to peaceful green space.
First impressions matter, and this home delivers. A welcoming front porch opens to an inviting foyer leading to a spacious living room featuring a natural gas fireplace with a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone surround and double sliding glass doors to a large screened porch overlooking tranquil backyard. A home office with French doors, a well-appointed kitchen with a large granite island, abundant cabinetry, and a new gas stove, along with an adjacent dining area, complete the main living space.
Quality craftsmanship is evident throughout, from crown molding and coffered ceilings to wainscoting, built-ins, and stone accents; every detail has been thoughtfully designed. The main-level primary suite offers a tray ceiling and a spacious ensuite bath with dual vanities, a large walk-in closet, and a zero-entry tiled shower. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath provide an ideal split floor-plan layout. A large laundry room includes a convenient laundry chute from the primary closet.
Wainscoting-lined garage entry access leads to two additional bedrooms and a full bath upstairs, along with extensive attic storage. The fenced and private backyard backs to a wooded area. The storage shed conveys and is grandfathered in. Additional highlights include a whole-house generator, transferable termite bond, LeafGuard gutters, new fireplace insert, RV storage, fresh interior paint, and turnkey condition.
The Bluffs on the Cape Fear is an amenity-rich community featuring a clubhouse, gym, pool, tennis courts, playground, community lake, private gated entrance, riverfront park with boat and kayak launch, gazebo, and a private Oak Island beach house available to residents. Conveniently located near I-40 with easy access to shopping, dining, downtown Wilmington, and area beaches.
