Property Description
Space, privacy, flexibility, and an incredible location come together at 5516 Ashlyn Drive! Set on almost a full acre in an established Castle Hayne neighborhood with low HOA dues, this beautifully updated home offers approximately 1,956 square feet on the main level plus an exciting opportunity to expand upstairs with another 1,500+ square feet of potential living space. The second floor is already pre-plumbed for an additional full bath, creating possibilities for future bedrooms, a bonus space, home office, hobby area, or whatever best fits your needs. Extensive renovations completed in 2019-2020 include a redesigned main-floor layout, an all-new kitchen, new HVAC and ductwork, a new roof, and replaced insulation. The home also features an encapsulated crawl space with dehumidifier, whole-house water softener, and reverse osmosis water filtration in the kitchen. A fully heated and cooled attached two-car garage adds valuable year-round space for vehicles, hobbies, projects, storage, or entertaining. Outside, the nearly one-acre lot gives you room to spread out and enjoy your own private retreat. The 33-foot above-ground saltwater pool, installed in 2025, is ready for summer fun and outdoor gatherings, while the privacy fence helps create a comfortable setting for relaxing or entertaining. A 30-amp generator plug adds convenience, and a 500-pound above-ground propane tank services the gas-log fireplace as well as the stove and oven. Inside and out, there is room to live, work, entertain, create, and grow. And when it's time to explore beyond home, the location is hard to beat--approximately 15 minutes to ILM Airport, 5 minutes to the Castle Hayne public boat ramp, 20 minutes to UNCW, and about 20 minutes to the heart of downtown Wilmington. Offered at $520,000, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy substantial living space, an expansive lot, meaningful updates, outdoor amenities, and future expansion potential--all in one property. Come see the possibilities at 5516 Ashlyn Drive!
