The Cape neighborhood in Wilmington, NC area, offers residents the opportunity to enjoy coastal living. On the southern Cape Fear peninsula, this thriving hamlet is conveniently positioned just across from the Cape Fear River and less than a mile from Snow’s Cut Bridge, which provides access to miles of magnificent beaches that make up Pleasure Island.

The Cape Cod real estate market offers a diverse selection of architectural styles and property types, including condominiums, townhomes, patio homes, golf course villas, single-family homes, and custom estate homes. Traditional, brick, colonial, transitional, cottage, low-country, coastal, and contemporary architectural styles are represented, resulting in a distinctive streetscape that appeals to a wide variety of interests.

It is a great place for both active families and retirees to spend their time. The community is semi-private, with just River Road providing entry through a gate. Driving through the magnificent gate on Carolina Beach Road, you will quickly see why The Cape is such a beautiful location to live.

Over seven miles of private streets provide residents with opportunities for walking and biking. For golfers, there is nothing like the comfort and convenience of a world-class, premium, semi-private golf course that has been developed by architect Bob Moore of the JMP Golf Design Group.

The Masonboro Country Club, formerly known as The Cape Golf and Racquet Club, reopened its doors in 2009 after a lengthy renovation. They spared no expense when it came to building the 7,000-yard course with Mini-Verde Bermuda greens, which includes over 80 acres of newly sodded turf, practice areas, including a 7-acre driving range, a Pro Shop, and a restaurant that offers both indoor and outdoor dining options, among other amenities. Each course contains five sets of tees, which increases the degree of difficulty and playability for players of all abilities.

Across the course, as well as throughout the community, lush indigenous plants, grasses, and palms were planted, resulting in an updated coastal sanctuary that is painstakingly maintained by the homeowner’s association Because the Cape is located outside of the city borders, inhabitants of the Cape are entitled to cheaper property taxes. The amount of HOA dues varies from community to community.

Residents of single-family houses pay roughly $45.00 per month in property taxes. Condominium and patio houses have greater HOA fees than townhomes and condominiums; however, these fees often include lawn maintenance and may also include a master insurance policy.

Located near shopping, restaurants, the Carolina Beaches and Fort Fisher, state parks, and public boat launches, the Cape is a short drive from medical institutions, the Wilmington International Airport, the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, and historic downtown Wilmington.
