This approximately 10-acre wooded property is located in a growing area of Brunswick County just west of Highway 87 in Boiling Spring Lakes. Its location provides convenient access to Southport, the beaches of Oak Island, and the city of Wilmington, placing it in the path of continued coastal growth and development. Zoned R-6 (Medium Density Residential), the property offers potential for future residential use or long-term investment in one of North Carolina's fastest-expanding coastal regions. At present, vehicle access has not been established. The roads leading toward the parcel have not been maintained, so a future owner would likely need to improve access through road work, easements, or permitting before construction or regular use. This should be considered during planning but may also present an opportunity for buyers willing to add value through improvements. The land is fully wooded with mature trees, offering natural privacy and a peaceful setting. It also falls within the green woodpecker zone, which can help streamline certain aspects of environmental planning and permitting. With land near the coast becoming increasingly limited, this tract represents a chance to secure substantial acreage in a desirable location with long-term upside potential. The property could appeal to investors, builders, or buyers seeking land in Brunswick County's expanding coastal market. For more information or to arrange a visit to the site, contact us today.
