While Rocky Point offers seclusion, residents enjoy proximity to amenities. There are two public schools in the community, and it is less than 20 miles from Wilmington. “The appeal is that it sits on the edge of Wilmington, which is the main attraction in this part of the world,” says Cisco Cardoso of Cardoso & Company, who has been selling real estate for 25 years and has sold several homes in Rocky Point. “It’s a lot more rural, but it’s still convenient. It’s only a 15-minute ride to north Wilmington, and in 20 minutes, you’re right downtown, in the thick of everything.” Ranch-style homes are common among housing options that typically offer plenty of space. “The lots in Rocky Point are a little bigger. The half-acre to one-acre lots, those are the small ones,” Cardoso says. “For those looking for big yards and room for the kids, that’s a home run.” Many of the ranch-style homes are concentrated along U.S. Route 117, which runs through the heart of the community.
