Tucked at the end of a quiet three-home cul-de-sac off Middle Sound Loop, this distinctive North Bend property offers something increasingly difficult to find in Wilmington: a private, country-like setting overlooking an approximately 15-acre horse pasture, yet just minutes from marinas, Pages Creek Park, Mayfaire and Wrightsville Beach. Horses, birds and wildlife become part of the view, while morning light, evening sunsets and coastal breezes create a setting that feels remarkably removed from the conveniences nearby. With 3,816 heated square feet, four bedrooms, three full baths and a full apartment suite, the home offers exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, extended family, guests, working from home or rental use. The suite is currently rented for $1,800 per month and blends architecturally with the main residence while providing its own living room, kitchen, dining area, full bath, spacious 15'x14' bedroom and private porch overlooking the pasture. Multiple access points allow the suite to function independently while remaining connected to the rest of the property. The three-bedroom, two-bath main residence is designed around both comfortable everyday living and its connection to the outdoors. The kitchen features generous counter space, a large pantry and a serving window to the screened porch. The adjoining dining and living areas flow toward the large screened porch and deck, extending the living space outside and providing multiple places to enjoy the pasture views. The home's 14-room floor plan provides spaces rarely found together in one property. Just seven steps up leads to an expansive 23'x12' private office filled with natural light--ideal for working from home, a studio, library or creative space. Seven steps down leads to a 24'x23' ground-level flex room, currently used as a fitness center and laundry area, with access from both the main residence and breezeway. Its size and location provide tremendous flexibility for recreation, hobbies, fitness or additional living space. Across the breezeway is an oversized 27'x25' two-car garage with workbench and utility sink. Outside, the backyard opens toward the adjoining fenced pasture setting, reinforcing the property's unusual sense of space and privacy. 4136 Glen Arbor Drive combines the flexibility of a large, adaptable home with a setting that is difficult to duplicate: horses beyond the backyard, room to live and work in multiple ways, and the feeling of being in the country while remaining close to the best of coastal Wilmington.
