Blue Clay Townes

If you’ve been searching for a low-maintenance home that still feels polished and thoughtfully designed, Blue Clay Townes deserves a close look. Built by Bostic Building, this new community in Castle Hayne pairs fresh, contemporary finishes with practical layouts and energy-smart construction—an appealing combination for anyone who wants to live comfortably without spending weekends on upkeep. Its location is another standout: you’re minutes to the conveniences of Wilmington, major employers and campuses, and some of the Cape Fear region’s favorite destinations, from Live Oak Pavilion to Wrightsville Beach.

A Smart First Impression: Curb Appeal That Lasts

Blue Clay Townes is designed to look great on day one and continue looking sharp years down the road. Exteriors incorporate low-maintenance vinyl siding with metal porch accents, professionally designed landscaping, and white Low-E vinyl GBG windows that help with both energy performance and clean lines. Architectural shingles rated for 30 years offer long-term durability, while white aluminum gutters (installed in all applicable areas) help manage runoff during summer storms. Brushed concrete walkways and driveways frame the entries, and per-plan rear patios (approximately 96 square feet) extend everyday living outside. Select homes include rear fencing—useful for container gardens, outdoor seating, or simply a bit of added privacy.

Under the hood, you’ll find details that matter to longevity and comfort: engineered roof trusses, Tech Shield radiant barrier roof sheathing to reflect heat, and 2×4 walls with exterior sheathing and fire-rated party walls between homes. The package is designed to perform well in our coastal climate while keeping routine maintenance simple.

Everyday Living, Simplified

Step inside and the emphasis on livability is immediate. Each home centers on a bright, open-concept main level that connects the kitchen, dining, and living spaces. That openness makes daily life more flexible: it’s easy to meal-prep while keeping an eye on a game, set up a homework or project station at the dining table, or host a casual gathering without feeling boxed in. Smooth ceilings and walls lend a clean, modern backdrop, and 7-inch luxury vinyl plank flooring in the formal areas is both stylish and durable—great for sandy flip-flops after a beach morning or the occasional muddy paw.

From there, the main level flows naturally to a private rear patio and back yard. Whether you’re throwing something simple on the grill, reading outside with a coffee, or letting a four-legged friend stretch their legs, the transition from indoors to out feels easy. Some plans also offer the option to fence the yard for added definition and utility.

Kitchen Design That Works As Hard As You Do

In many townhomes, the kitchen is the heartbeat of the main floor, and Blue Clay Townes treats it that way. Expect a clean, coordinated palette anchored by quartz countertops—durable and bright—paired with a classic 4×12 white tile backsplash. Shaker-style 36-inch cabinets include crown molding and finished hardware for a polished look, and the configuration leaves useful counter runs for prep and small appliances. The sinks and Moen faucet package lean into practical design with everyday reliability.

Appliances are a Frigidaire stainless suite with a smooth-top range, giving you exactly what you need without the guesswork of aftermarket upgrades. It’s a finish level that photographs beautifully and lives even better: easy-wipe surfaces, lots of light bounce from the whites and chromes, and storage that uses vertical space to keep the counters clear.

Flexible Spaces for How You Live

One of the quiet strengths of these homes is that the square footage is allocated wisely. Beyond the main gathering zone, secondary areas can flex with your needs—set up a workspace, a hobby corner, or a media nook without walking through a maze of walls. Pre-wiring for ceiling fans in multiple rooms and included bonus fans in the living room and primary suite are thoughtful touches in our climate, letting you optimize airflow and adjust comfort without always reaching for the thermostat.

Storage is better than you might expect in a townhome, thanks to wood closet shelving (a cut above wire racks) that maximizes vertical organization. Wide 1×6 baseboards and 1×4 casings frame spaces with a finished, tailored feel, and two-panel interior doors with brushed-nickel hardware tie the look together across the home.

A Primary Suite That Feels Like a Retreat

Upstairs, the primary suite is designed to be your reset zone. The footprint is comfortably scaled to handle a full bedroom set, and the walk-in closet with wood shelving supports everything from seasonal rotation to streamlined daily routines. The primary bath continues the elevated finishes with tile flooring, a raised-height vanity, dual sinks, and a quartz countertop—details that make a real difference during busy mornings. Designer chrome plumbing fixtures deliver clean lines and an easy-care sheen.

Two additional bedrooms offer true flexibility. Use one for guests when needed, convert another to a home office, studio, or fitness space, or keep both as bedrooms—there’s room to adapt over time. Upstairs carpeting (stain-resistant with a quality pad) adds softness underfoot, while the smooth-finish walls and ceilings keep the overall look cohesive across levels.

Bathrooms That Balance Style and Function

Beyond the primary bath, secondary bathrooms carry forward the same elevated material selections. Tile floors handle splashes and high traffic, raised-height vanities reduce daily strain, and quartz counters provide a clean, durable work surface. Those consistent upgrades prevent the “nice primary, basic secondaries” mismatch you sometimes find in new construction, and they help the entire home feel like a complete design rather than a mix-and-match set of rooms.

Construction and Energy Efficiency You Can Feel

A beautiful home is one thing; a home that performs season after season is even better. Blue Clay Townes includes a well-rounded energy-saving package designed for comfort and cost control:

• Tech Shield radiant barrier roof sheathing helps reduce attic temperatures on hot days.

• R-15 wall insulation and R-38 attic insulation support stable interior temperatures.

• A 15-SEER Trane heat pump is a reliable, efficient system that’s easy to service locally.

• Energy Star windows and Low-E glass help manage heat gain and loss without sacrificing natural light.

• A 50-gallon hot water heater and 200-amp electrical service meet modern household demands, while GFCI receptacles are placed to code for safety.

Paired together, these elements are about more than a number on a spec sheet—they contribute to quieter interiors, fewer hot-and-cold spots, and potentially lower monthly utility costs compared to older housing stock with dated systems and minimal insulation. Extra insulation between homes and the use of fire-rated party walls also contribute to peace of mind.

Quality Touches That Add Up

Small details often set one community apart from another, and you’ll find several of those here. Schlage lever hardware provides a comfortable, modern feel at every door. Ceiling fan pre-wiring in many rooms makes it simple to add circulation where you want it. Smooth walls and ceilings make future touch-ups easy and elevate the overall finish quality. Even the garage door (a clean 9×7 profile) and the choice of brushed concrete for driveways underscore the builder’s goal: useful, durable elements that complement the design rather than compete with it.

Low-Maintenance Exteriors, More Time for Life

Because exterior materials were chosen for durability and ease, yard days become lighter and the weekend calendar opens up. Professionally designed landscaping creates a tidy streetscape with minimal intervention. Vinyl siding and trims simplify upkeep, and architectural shingles reduce near-term roof worries. For many buyers, that combination—plus a right-sized yard—means more time enjoying the coast rather than maintaining a property.

Connected to What Matters

Blue Clay Townes puts everyday essentials and weekend favorites within easy reach. Groceries are practically around the corner, home-improvement runs are a short hop away, and larger stock-ups are just down the road. When it’s time to get across town, you’re well positioned for both UNCW and Cape Fear Community College—North Campus to the north, Downtown to the south—so commutes, classes, and campus events fit naturally into the week. Travel days are easier, too: ILM is close enough for quick drop-offs and smooth pick-ups without turning the morning into an ordeal.

When you’re off the clock, you’ve got options. Head downtown for live music at Live Oak Pavilion, spend a slow morning among the blooms at Airlie Gardens, or make a beach run to Wrightsville for a dose of salt air. And if you’re in the mood for a mini-escape, coastal day trips—Surf City, Southport, Oak Island—are all within comfortable striking distance. From concerts and markets to waterside strolls and sandy toes, the best parts of Wilmington living are easy to tap into from Castle Hayne.

A Word About Schools and Services

Several public schools and higher-education campuses are within a general radius of the community, including Castle Hayne Elementary (about 4.1 miles), Holly Shelter Middle (about 4.1 miles), and New Hanover High (about 4.1 miles). For specific assignment zones, program offerings, or transportation details, buyers should confirm directly with the appropriate district or institution; attendance zones and offerings can change. Healthcare, professional services, and everyday conveniences are widely distributed throughout the greater Wilmington area, and Blue Clay Townes’ position near major corridors makes access straightforward.

Who Blue Clay Townes Is Great For

Because the floor plans prioritize open living areas, a well-finished primary suite, and flexible secondary rooms, these homes fit a wide variety of needs. If you like to entertain casually, the main level’s flow makes it easy. If you need a quiet video-call space during the week, one of the secondary bedrooms can become a dedicated office. If your ideal Saturday is a beach morning followed by a relaxed afternoon on the patio, the location and easy-care design support that routine. 

Value You Can See—and Feel Over Time

Blue Clay Townes combines visual appeal (quartz, tile, LVP, smooth finishes) with long-term value (insulation, radiant barrier, quality HVAC). Those choices can influence not only how a home looks but also how it feels in August heat or on a chilly January morning. Wood closet shelving improves organization; raised-height vanities increase comfort; ceiling fan pre-wires save on future electrician visits. Even the basics—like two exterior water spigots, thoughtful GFCI placement, and rear patios—reflect an attention to real-life use.

Builder Perspective

Bostic Building’s approach at Blue Clay Townes blends durable materials, classic finishes, and practical upgrades that photograph well and function even better. From Schlage hardware to Moen plumbing fixtures to Energy Star windows, the selections keep a consistent, high-utility standard. For buyers comparing options across the market, that cohesion is helpful: you won’t find a single highly upgraded room paired with corners cut elsewhere. Instead, the homes feel uniformly complete.

Why Buyers Put Blue Clay Townes on the Short List

In the current market, the most sought-after townhomes tend to deliver three things: move-in-ready finishes, floor plans that don’t waste space, and construction that helps moderate utility costs. Blue Clay Townes checks those boxes while adding a location that shortens errand runs and expands your options for work, study, and play. The result is a home that lives bigger than its footprint and makes daily life smoother—from the first coffee of the day to the last light on the patio.
