Waterfront Neighborhoods - Just as the early settlers were drawn to our waters, the delights of waterfront living bring people to Wilmington today. The river, the Intracoastal Waterway, our sounds, inlets and creeks offer many opportunities to enjoy coastal living.

Greenville Sound and Masonboro Sound are south of Wrightsville Beach and part of the Intracoastal Waterway. This land along the sounds is home to many lovely neighborhoods where sweeping water views are framed by majestic live oaks. Some homes have direct water access and individual docks, and other homes are within neighborhoods with community docks and boat slips. Prices range from $250,000 (with shallow creek access at a neighborhood boat ramp) to $5,000,000 - and the quality of the water access affects the price as much as the home itself!

Middle Sound is north of Wrightsville Beach and also part of the Intracoastal Waterway. Middle Sound and its many creeks are home to other lovely waterfront neighborhoods. This area has developed more slowly than the areas to the south and has more homes with direct water access. Prices range from $300,000 to $4,000,000, again depending on the age and size of the house and on the quality of the water access.
