A substantial investment in real estate involves some degree of consideration concerning matters of geography. Location does matter. North Carolina has a little over 300 miles of barrier island shoreline. Wrightsville Beach constitutes 5 miles of that, about one and a half percent. It's not a coincidence that 28480 is the most expensive zip code zone in the state. The myriad reasons for this are beyond the scope of this narrative. Let it suffice to say, people want to be here. There are only 130 single-family oceanfront lots on the island. 317 South Lumina Avenue is one of them. This contemporary coastal masterpiece redefines oceanfront living. Developed by the island's premier residential developer, this work of art leaves little to be desired. Start with 7 bedrooms, each enjoying a private bath boasting unique vanity and tile selections. The kitchen is built for a Chef: 72-inch side-by-side Gaggenau refrigeration, double islands, quartzite countertops with marble backsplash. An adjacent Wolf-equipped Scullery provides an additional Cove dishwasher, wall oven, built in coffee system, and Elkay bottle filling station. Captain's Quarters includes an in-room bar with Wolf coffee maker, Sub-Zero beverage center, exquisite custom closet with jewelry safe, and an en suite bath featuring European sourced porcelain. Other designer features include: floating staircase in the foyer, Murano chandeliers, McBowery hardware, ¾ inch French Oak hardwood flooring, Monte Carlo fans, and Buster & Punch light switches. Other amenities include a heated saltwater pool, frameless glass home gym, LG steam closet, triple stacked Electrolux washer/dryer set, and a 400+ bottle wine cellar. Astounding ocean views are showcased from every room in this 6000 square foot residence. The home is constructed to exceed Wrightsville Beach's stringent building codes. Design features include closed cell insulation, standing seam metal roof, and impact rated windows. 317 South Lumina Avenue is more than new construction - it is the culmination of disciplined craftsmanship, global perspective, and a deep respect for one of the island's most timeless and quintessential settings. Furnishings included with acceptable offer.
