An elevated view, a quiet morning on the screened porch, and room to settle into a slower pace—welcome to Pierre's Bay by Kent Homes in Sunset Reach. Currently under construction, this home enjoys a distinctive homesite overlooking ponds and greenspace, with a raised Trex deck and screened porch that make the setting part of everyday life. From coffee outdoors to dinner with friends, there's a place to enjoy every part of the day. With approximately 2,641 heated square feet, three bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, a dedicated study, and a spacious bonus room, the layout balances comfortable main-level living with room for guests and hobbies. The great room brings everyone together around a gas fireplace and built-ins, while a wide, bi-parting door opens to the screened porch, extending gatherings outdoors. The adjoining kitchen and dining area keep conversation flowing, with a generous island, quartz countertops, gas cooktop, wall oven, and a glass tile backsplash adding style to the spaces you'll use most. Tray ceilings, crown molding, and wainscoting give the interiors a polished, welcoming feel. Privately positioned at the rear, the main-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with 2 spacious walk-in closets and a fully tiled, zero-entry shower with a rain showerhead. A second bedroom and French-door study provide everyday flexibility downstairs, while an upstairs bedroom, full bath, and bonus room give visitors space to settle in or create the perfect spot for movie nights. Beyond your porch, Sunset Reach offers a gated riverfront setting along the Northeast Cape Fear River, with walking and biking trails, a 12-acre lake for kayaking and paddleboarding, pickleball, and a riverfront boardwalk and gazebo. A community marina offers boat slips available for purchase, while a lakeside pool and clubhouse with fitness facilities are under construction. Approximately 10 minutes from downtown Wilmington by car or boat, this is a place to enjoy peaceful surroundings while staying close to waterfront dining, shopping, and entertainment.
