This exceptional 2023-built riverfront estate at 9102 River Rd pairs purposeful luxury with real waterfront functionality. Set behind gates on 3.29 acres, the property’s circular drive announces a serious level of privacy and presence. Inside, the main living plane (recorded at 4,369 SF) showcases custom millwork, wide-plank flooring, coffered ceilings, and a modern gas fireplace oriented for both daily living and entertaining. A chef’s-grade kitchen centers on a marble waterfall island and top-tier appliances — all conveyed with the sale — plus substantial prep space and a layout that feeds naturally to the covered rear terraces.
The home was designed for full-family living and car/boat enthusiasm: an elevator serves every floor, the lower level adds a heated flex room with full bath (approx. 439 SF), and an extraordinary 8-car garage offers room for vehicles, toys, and workshop space. Outside amenities include a private saltwater pool, an outdoor fireplace on the patio with direct river views, fully irrigated grounds, and professional landscaping that balances manicured lawn with natural river buffers.
Boating is effortless here: the listing includes use of a neighborhood marina slip sized for a 30-foot boat with a 10,000 lb lift — a rare convenience that differentiates this offering in Wilmington. Practical systems include a whole-home generator and covered porches front and rear to enjoy the waterway and sunsets. The primary suite is a retreat with a private balcony and spa bath with premium finishes and thoughtful storage.
Minutes from downtown Wilmington’s restaurants and cultural offerings and within reasonable reach of area beaches, this property provides a lifestyle combination—privacy and secure storage for vehicles and boats, plus easy access to city conveniences. Prepare for boat days without the trailer and host gatherings that move seamlessly from an expansive kitchen to pool, patio, and riverfront views.
