Updated 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with an in-ground saltwater pool, whole-house generator, and split-bedroom floor plan for additional privacy. There is so much to love about this home! The previous owners installed wainscoting, Mohawk LVP flooring (2021), Brazilian Bianco granite countertops (kitchen), stainless steel Whirlpool appliances, a new HVAC system (2017), and a new roof (2019). In 2019, they also updated the home's 2 bathrooms. The primary bathroom has a barn door entrance, large walk-in shower, and a Himalayan moon quartz countertop (the guest bathroom features an Intense White quartz countertop). The most recent owners have installed a custom floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a mantle and new 50'' electric fireplace; recessed lighting in the main living area and primary bedroom; and ceiling fans, door handles, and multiple other fixtures in trendy matte black. They've also made improvements to the plumbing and pool (see attached documents in MLS), and installed high-speed fiber optic internet. At the rear of the home is a four-seasons room with its own heating/cooling system. It overlooks a private fenced back yard with a wired workshop/shed and outlets around the perimeter. This is a 1.33 acre lot that extends beyond the fenced area. Washington Acres is located less than 1 mile from shopping and dining in Hampstead, and conveniently just 5 miles from additional options in the Porters Neck area of Wilmington.
