THE TOP CONDO SALE was 618 Waynick Blvd.
100
WBM
Both sides A and B sold to one buyer for $2.3 mil-lion.
He is local, living in one unit and his family
uses the other, Carla Lewis says. The seller also
stayed local, moving into another property.
Closely following at $2.296 million was oceanfront 205B S.
Lumina Ave., 5 bedrooms, 6 baths in 4,215sf.
“The property was purchased by a family from Raleigh. The
same buyer purchased a home on the north end of the beach 15
years ago and then I sold it for him about 12 years ago. They had
continued interest over the years in buying another second home
on the beach. This property really fit their needs. Great ocean
and sound views with all one-level living. Beautifully decorated
and came fully furnished,” Keith Beatty of Intracoastal Realty
says.
In the top four condo sales at the beach was 119B S. Lumina
Ave., 6 bedrooms 8 baths, on four levels with a total of 4,839sf,
which sold for $1.685 million.
212B S. Lumina sold for $1.610 million.
“It was a beautifully decorated property, nicely renovated, with
a boat slip and a little beach area,” says Laura Betz, who co-listed
the unit with Sarah Kober of RE/MAX Essentials.
The listing agents had a lot of interest in the condo, which,
Betz says, was atypical of what was on the market.
“It was not an isolated buyer. I believe if we had had it longer,
we’d have had multiple offers,” she says.
Carla Lewis understands.
“One example I had on a beach property, he was waiting on
the market to rebound. And on a single weekend in the spring, I
ended up with multiple offers and that house went for more than
asking price,” she explains.
