Cabbage Inlet Lane off of Masonboro Sound Road is a treasured location about 20 minutes from Wrightsville Beach and 20 minutes from Carolina/Kure Beaches. Winding your way through centuries old live oaks, you will arrive at the crushed stone drive with dry stacked stone walls to arrive at the Cape Cod inspired cedar shake residence. The tasteful combination of classic lines and quality materials including brick, clapboard, standing seam metal with all the modern conveniences like trex exterior porch decking, wide plank white oak hardwood flooring throughout the 3 upper floors (24x24 ceramic tile on the ground floor) , granite counters in the kitchen and baths and an elevator all point to the thoughtful attention to detail and craftsmanship. As you approach the home, you will immediately be struck with curved eye brow dormer above sweeping covered porch and the one of a kind mahogany gothic design front door. As you step across the threshold you feel the welcoming warmth of the wood flooring and staircase detail. An open floor plan includes a chef's kitchen with center island and sunny breakfast /morning room, a large dining area and 24x18 great room anchored by a masonry fireplace. With oversized Andersen windows, you will be drawn to the back covered porch with broken views of Whiskey Creek. Additional bells and whistles on this floor include custom built-ins, raised panel wainscoting, stainless appliances including a gas 8 burner cooktop with dual ovens and warming drawers and Subzero refrigerator/freezer, 2 undermount sinks plus a third bar sink and wine cooler. The lower level ground floor features another open plan with 23x15 den and 15x14 flex space, an 18x17 bedroom with private bath and walk-in closet. The floor above the main floor includes a gracious master suite, lounge and 2 bedrooms each with bath ensuite. The top floor will be the envy of your family and friends as it is the most incredible home office/ flex space with custom built-ins. The perfect spot to let your inner artist out and be creative, host zoom calls or just relax in the top floor tree house! As if the main house were not enough, don't miss the detached guest suite with full bath over the 2 car garage. Total square footage including the detached suite/guest apartment is 5,553 (Main house is just over 5,000 sq ft and guest apartment is 549 sq ft.) This one of a kind residence will not disappoint. When only the best will do! Vance B. Young
