Amenities include a swimming pool, tennis and a clubhouse. Prices for lots begin at $100,000 and completed homes start at $400,000. An architectural committee ensures harmony of homes and landscaping. Marsh Oaks is less than thirty minutes from downtown Wilmington and about 15 minutes from the ocean.
A bit further north on Market Street is Porters Neck Plantation and Country Club, on the Intracoastal Waterway about four miles north of Wilmington. Porters Neck is one of New Hanover County’s more venerable, upscale developments.
The 18-hole golf course at Porters Neck was designed by Tom Fazio and has been named “the #1 coastal course” in North Carolina by Golf Digest. Among the amenties at Porters Neck are a clubhouse, two large pools, seven lighted hydro-clay tennis courts, fitness complex and a boat ramp on the Intracoastal Waterway. Lots in Porters Neck range from $75,000 to more than $200,000, and homes are priced from the low $400,000 to $1 million or more.
