Introducing The Cypress House—a modern architectural triumph nestled within Wilmington’s prestigious gated community of Landfall. Designed by acclaimed architect Kevin Pfirman, developed by former NFL Kicker Connor Barth, and built by Drew Sheaffer of Roost Home Building, this one-of-a-kind residence in the coveted Highlands neighborhood draws inspiration from five-star resorts across the country and the relaxed elegance of Costa Rica. The result is a seamless blend of nature, luxury, and cutting-edge design.
Set on a peaceful marsh-front homesite, the property offers panoramic views of the tidal creek and protected conservation land. The striking exterior—crafted from 4-inch tongue and groove cypress with bold black and grey accents—sets the tone for what’s inside: clean lines, open spaces, and a perfect harmony between indoor and outdoor living.
At the heart of the home, a dramatic yellow balau walkway flows from the entry to the rear terrace, softly lit with architectural accent lighting and framed by glass-enclosed living spaces. Inside, the soaring great room features a drop-down fire flue, custom entertainment wall, and dramatic ceilings, connecting seamlessly to a designer kitchen and formal dining area.
The primary suite is a true private sanctuary—secluded with serene marsh views, spa-level finishes, and direct access to an outdoor linear fireplace lounge that blurs the line between inside and out.
Additional highlights include a finished basement, hydronic radiant heated floors throughout the home, a flexible office or guest suite with its own full bath, multiple guest bedrooms, oversized Quartz luxury windows for light and energy efficiency, and a spectacular custom infinity-edge pool and spa, all overlooking the changing tides.
The Cypress House is a statement in modern luxury. A rare opportunity to own one of Wilmington’s most iconic new homes, in one of its most prestigious gated communities.
