THE TOP Wrightsville
sale of $4.25 million,
513 S. Lumina Ave., was
the No. 4 sale in all of
New Hanover County.
This was a cash purchase of a second
home by a multigenerational Georgia
family businessman.
513 S. Lumina Ave. is an old
South-styled luxury home on which
painstakingly detailed construction
began in 2014. Amenities include
oceanfront heated pool and hot tub,
breathtaking ocean, inlet and sunrise
and sunset views, Carrara gold marble
and Via Lactea black granite in 5
bedrooms, 6 baths. Randall Williams
says the sale set the bar for construc-tion
on Wrightsville, selling at a cost
of $1,005.59 per square foot.
The buyer is a Tar Heel fan.
“That’s a common theme: he has
roots in North Carolina by way of
going to school here, and the guy
that bought the big house on Ocean
Point in Landfall had roots in North
Carolina and went to N.C. State. A
lot of these folks have gone out and
done well and are coming back to
their roots,” Vance Young says.
Another top sale was a $2.85 mil-lion
cash sale at 813 S. Lumina Ave.,
the 15th top sale for New Hanover
County. This 1982 south end ocean-front
4,219sf home boasts a special
sawtooth design and porches to capture
maximum views and outdoor living.
“Every price range increased,”
Bobby Brandon says.
Condominium sales caught on
fire. This long, sluggish sector of the
market took off with units selling in
buildings great and small that have
not seen a sale in years.
A stunning total of 84 out of the
town’s 149 sales were condominiums,
77 percent. Ten of these sold for
over $1 million, with two selling at
$2.3 million.
