The Crows Nest Cottage by AnA Builders is the 2017 Summer Ideal Living Resort & Retirement home. Nestled on the Intracoastal Waterway this home features picturesque views of the water and of Topsail Island.

​The four-story Ideal Home is now completed on one of the premier waterfront homesites in the community. It’s named‘The Crow’s Nest’ because of the distinctive cupola on the fourth floor, with commanding views of Everett Bay, the Intracoastal Waterway, Topsail Island and the Atlantic Ocean. Built by Michael Afify of AnA Builders and designed by Wilmington architect Scott Sullivan, the home features four full bedrooms, an elevator and just over 3,000 square feet of heated space.
