Considering that Wilmington is frequently referred to as the city that spans from “the river to the sea”, it should come as no surprise that there are quite a few communities centered around water. From the majestic banks of the Cape Fear River to the sparkling Intracoastal Waterway, salt marsh creeks and picturesque sounds to the mighty Atlantic, there are plenty of options for homebuyers seeking the unique lifestyle that only a waterfront location provides.
Properties with water access provide an amazing array of built-in amenities.
