1856 Healing Water Lane SW

With a blend of traditional southern and coastal chic style , this storybook retreat invites you in with timeless charm and easy, breezy coastal hues. From the interior trim details to recent updates and the 10' ceilings, this is a haven where southern charm meets salt air and sunshine. Entering this home, you'll immediately notice the 10' ceilings and the open, airy feeling. On the left of the entry is a room full of details, from the beautiful wainscot to the crown molding and large windows - this room could serve many purposes, from formal dining to study to a den. At the heart of the home is a spacious living area featuring a corner fireplace and seamless transitions to both the kitchen and a dreamy screened in porch. This porch is truly a showstopper—vaulted ceilings, fans and speakers, a skylight, and tranquil views of a fenced backyard and zen garden. The perfect place to sip your morning coffee, enjoy an evening breeze, or use the roll-down shades for comfort when the sun is at its brightest. The 10' ceilings continue into the kitchen and dining nook. The kitchen has been updated with painted gray cabinets, a stylish backsplash, new GE range with air fryer and convection, and new built in microwave and dishwasher. There is an abundance of cabinetry and storage as well as a pantry. The dining nook also provides easy access to the back patio and zen garden. On the right side of the main floor, the primary suite is striking with a tray ceiling and plenty of natural light. The ensuite bath is serene, featuring dual sinks, self-closing mirrored medicine cabinets, a tiled shower with a barn-style sliding door, and a soaking tub for end-of-day unwinding. Up the hardwood stairs, you'll find two guest bedrooms and a hall bath, along with plenty of storage and walk-in attic access for all your tucked-away treasures. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated, this home includes a host of extras: a 220 outlet in the garage for your EV, updated light fixtures indoors and out, a refreshed powder room vanity, wifi compatible thermostats, extensive garage cabinetry, and a roof just four years old. Located in the gated community of Oyster Harbour, there are numerous amenities to take advantage of to live the coastal lifestyle: boat ramp and day dock into the Intracoastal Waterway, clubhouse with gathering spaces, tennis and pickleball courts, kayak launch in the Shallotte River, bocce ball, a putting green as well as storage space for your boat or RV. Located in the middle of Wilmington, NC and Myrtle Beach, SC, this home is convenient to both large cities and only a ten minute ride to Holden Beach!
