Property Description
5134 Prices Creek Drive is a beautiful marriage of superior craftsmanship and stunning southern vernacular design. This architectural triumph is nestled on the banks of Prices Creek, a location steeped in a rich and captivating past dating back to the Gentleman Pirate Stede Bonnet, who used it as a hide-out for his sixty-ton sloop, the Revenge. Just over one nautical mile downstream, where Prices Creek meets the Cape Fear River, stands North Carolina's oldest lighthouse, a modest 26' brick structure built in 1849 as a range light to guide ships from the mouth of the river to Wilmington. This oasis of luxury and sophistication sits on a sprawling 1.5 acres of pristine property surrounded by majestic hardwoods. Perched high above the creek, the home is perfectly situated to protect property and privacy while offering sweeping views of the serene surroundings. Every inch of this estate has been thoughtfully crafted with meticulous attention to detail. The modern yet timeless construction techniques match those of a time past when quality and craftsmanship had a greater importance. The bilateral proportions of the exterior and exquisite two-story porches are reminiscent of southern Greek revival mansions. Much like studying a piece of art, you will slowly begin to recognize the techniques and use of materials. This includes James Hardie fiber cement lap siding, #1 redried pressure treated lumber as trim to give the depth and shadow of that of historical trim, copper flashing, custom wood French entry doors, oversized Marvin windows designed to reduce the scale and 5V metal roofing, giving the home a refined and enduring elegance. Framing this piece of art is a curated landscape design that flows seamlessly from brick paver porches, that encourage alfresco dining, to poolside lounging perfect for the lazy days of summer.
