7200 Airlie Pl, Wilmington, NC, 28403

This is a Low-Country cottage reimagined for contemporary coastal living—completed with the kind of thoughtful craftsmanship you notice the moment you walk through the door. Substantially remodeled in 2010 by local builder Ralph Konrady, the home pairs classic coastal proportions with modern systems: hurricane-rated impact windows and doors, new wiring, plumbing and durable siding. Hardwood floors run through the main living areas, and built-ins create purposeful zones for everyday life.

French doors open the living area to an expansive screened porch framed by exposed rafters and a vaulted ceiling—an outdoors room large enough for dining and lounging regardless of season. The kitchen is practical and warm: granite counters, abundant custom cabinetry, a farmhouse sink and a stainless steel appliance package centered on a gas range. A compact office nook adjacent to the kitchen, plus a practical backpack/shoe drop next to the laundry, reveal clever planning for coastal family life.

The primary suite on the main level offers a modern ensuite and transom windows, plus a private screened porch overlooking the community pond where a fountain aerator adds subtle movement to the view. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath accommodate guests and family; a nautical ship’s ladder provides access to roughly 150 square feet of bonus interior space not included in the stated heated footage—ideal as a play loft, creative studio, or storage.

Airlie Place is an intimate nine-home enclave with a community pool and a landscaped pond, and the property includes practical coastal additions: a two-car garage and an outdoor shower. Boatslip lease or purchase options are available in the nearby marina district, and sound-side restaurants and marinas are within easy walking distance. Located inside the Wrightsville Beach Elementary School district, this home offers a rare combination of upgraded systems, attractive finishes, and immediate access to Wilmington’s waterfront lifestyle.

Airlie Place sits just off historic Airlie Road, offering a rare pocket of calm within easy reach of Wilmington’s waterfront amenities.

Days here are balanced between boating or dining at the marina district and quick trips to the beaches and downtown Wilmington attractions.
