153 Brookhaven Trail

Welcome to Brookhaven — one of Leland's best-kept secrets. This private riverfront community, nestled among mature hardwoods and set against the peaceful backdrop of the Brunswick River, offers a rare blend of nature, space, and connection. Here, neighbors gather at the pool overlooking the marsh, launch kayaks at sunrise, and enjoy frequent get-togethers that make the neighborhood feel like an extended family. Just ten minutes from downtown Wilmington—or about a five-minute boat ride across the river—Brookhaven feels worlds away, tucked into a serene setting where the trees still stand tall and the lots are generous, like this one (just over a third of an acre). Here, residents have access to a private community day dock, and boat slips may be available for rent or purchase, offering an easy path to life on the water. The home itself is spacious and welcoming, with five bedrooms and three full baths—ideal for anyone who loves to host or needs room to grow. Inside, you'll find beautiful natural light, an open-concept layout, a two-story family room, and a sunny flex space that could serve as an office or reading nook. The kitchen features an eat-in bar, and there's a formal dining room ready for gatherings. The downstairs bedroom with a full bath is perfect for guests, while the backyard and back deck create seamless indoor-outdoor living. With a new roof 2023, abundant storage, and timeless curb appeal—including a rocking-chair front porch—this home is move-in ready. If you've been searching for something with more space, more trees, and more personality than the typical new construction—paired with a strong sense of community—Brookhaven is calling.
