118 Jamaica Dr, Wilmington, NC 28401

This classic brick ranch at 118 Jamaica Drive stands out for its combination of solid mid-century construction and thoughtful, recent updates. The single-story floor plan spans approximately 1,480 square feet and opens immediately to warm hardwood floors that run through the main living areas. The kitchen has been refreshed with new cabinetry and stainless steel appliances that bring contemporary function to a timeless layout, while renovated bathrooms reflect clean lines and modern fixtures.

Living space extends naturally outdoors via a screened-in porch that adds a usable, insect-free room for reading, casual meals, or an evening with friends. The home sits on a generous 0.45-acre, level lot—one of the largest parcels in the immediate Sedgefield block—offering room for gardening, play areas, or future additions without HOA restrictions. A long driveway provides ample off-street parking for family and guests.

Practical systems include central air conditioning and forced-air heating, and the roof is architectural shingle construction. The brick veneer exterior minimizes near-term exterior maintenance and gives the house a grounded presence on Jamaica Drive. Interior updates paired with the large yard create flexibility—move in as-is and enjoy, or expand and tailor the property to suit evolving needs.

Location is a major asset: Wilmington International Airport is just about 2 miles away, downtown Wilmington’s dining and waterfront attractions are roughly 5 miles, and Wrightsville Beach is approximately 10 miles—perfect for weekend escapes. Sedgefield’s mix of mature yards and nearby shopping along Castle Hayne Road makes daily life convenient. Note: the property was acquired in 2022 and has appreciated with local market momentum; buyers should verify major systems and permits as part of standard due diligence.

Whether you’re seeking a comfortable primary residence, a long-term rental with strong demand (estimated rent roughly $2,200/month), or a home with expansion potential on a large lot, 118 Jamaica Drive offers a rare blend of location, recent renovations, and outdoor opportunity in one of Wilmington’s established neighborhoods.

Sedgefield is an established Wilmington neighborhood characterized by mature yards, brick ranches, and easy access to regional destinations.

The local school district is New Hanover County Schools, and the area attracts buyers who prioritize lot size and single-level living within reach of city amenities.
