The Cottages at Riverlights

Wilmington, NC

The Cottages at Riverlights is a coastal community located in Wilmington, NC along the Cape Fear River. This beautiful community offers various residential choices, homes for active adults, single-family, luxury homes, townhomes, and rental options. The energetic town square, aptly named Marina Village, houses a nail salon, restaurants, and many local retail shops. This walkable and bike friendly community is one that invites leisurely rides, dining, and stunning sunsets!

The Riverlights cottages range from one bedroom to three bedrooms. Future residents can select from seven different floor plans. Amenities include a resort-style pool, pool house with outdoor grills, fitness center, dog walk, quaint courtyards, and pocket parks.

All buildings are wood framing construction with several having exterior horizontal lap siding and others board and batten siding. All Cottage roofs have architectural dimensional asphalt shingles, and the Clubhouse roof has a metal standing seam roof.
