A rare opportunity to enjoy the very best of Wrightsville Beach -- from the water. Located directly on Banks Channel, this waterfront property offers something increasingly difficult to find on Wrightsville Beach: an assigned boat slip, a private sound-front beach, unobstructed sunset views and the Atlantic Ocean just a short walk away. The sunsets here are truly special. With wide-open western views across Banks Channel, enjoy spectacular, unobstructed sunsets from both the property and the dock -- the same stretch of Wrightsville Beach where locals and visitors gather in the evenings simply to watch the sun go down. Boaters will appreciate the assigned inside slip accommodating up to a 26-foot vessel. From your dock, you're approximately five minutes by boat from Masonboro Island, the largest undisturbed barrier island on the southern North Carolina coast. Accessible only by boat, this remarkable 5,653-acre nature reserve offers miles of undeveloped beaches and an incredible place to spend the day swimming, surfing, fishing or simply enjoying one of the area's most beautiful natural destinations. Masonboro Inlet is also approximately five minutes away by boat, putting exceptional inshore and offshore fishing within easy reach. Whether heading out for a day on the water, fishing from the dock or taking the boat over to Masonboro Island, this location makes it remarkably easy to enjoy the coastal lifestyle. Prefer to stay closer to home? Spend the day relaxing on the community's private sound-front beach along Banks Channel, launch a kayak or paddleboard, or fish right from the dock. When you're ready for the ocean, it's only a short walk to the beach. Walk over for a swim, enjoy dinner and seasonal live music on Crystal Pier at Oceanic, or stop by SUNdays for coffee and a taste of the local Wrightsville Beach community. Banks Channel Condos is an intimate waterfront community of just 12 units, offering a quieter setting that feels worlds away while keeping some of the best of Wrightsville Beach within walking distance. The property also offers off-street parking and onsite laundry. Inside, the residence features wood and tile flooring and an easy, low-maintenance coastal lifestyle. Annual HOA dues are just $3,822 and cover nearly all routine property expenses, leaving owners responsible primarily for electricity and cable/Wi-Fi. Opportunities combining Banks Channel frontage, an assigned boat slip, private sound-front beach, unobstructed sunset views and walkability to the Atlantic Ocean are exceptionally hard to find on Wrightsville Beach. Come for the beach. Stay for the sunsets. And keep your boat just steps from your door.
