Welcome to this beautifully updated home in the highly desirable Monkey Junction area of Wilmington, tucked away in the quiet Laurel Ridge neighborhood--offering both comfort and convenience just minutes from area beaches. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features walk-in closets with custom shelving, a 1-car garage, and sits on a generous 1/3-acre lot with a spacious backyard that makes up the majority of the property. From the moment you arrive, you'll notice the fresh exterior updates, including Hardie board siding and a brand-new automatic garage door (scheduled for installation the week of May 4). Out back, the fully fenced yard is a true highlight--complete with mature hardwood trees, a decorative pond, storage shed, and a brand-new deck with new gutters installed along the rear of the home for added function and protection. Inside, vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light create an open, airy feel. The home has been refreshed throughout with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, updated lighting, and fresh Sherwin-Williams Frosty White paint. The main living area flows easily into the dining space, making it ideal for everyday living and gatherings. The kitchen has been upgraded with White Ice quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, brand-new stainless steel appliances--including a refrigerator--and a functional breakfast bar for casual dining. The primary suite offers a quiet retreat with a bay window, while both bathrooms feature new vanities. Both secondary bedrooms have walk in closets. Additional updates include HVAC service completed in April 2026 and professionally cleaned ductwork.
