The location is conveniently located about 15 minutes from the back gate to Camp LeJeune Marine Base in Jacksonville, N C making it an ideal neighborhood for military families relocating to Camp LeJeune or New River Air Station. Kingsbridge II is a subdivision that enjoys the benefits of a location that is convenient to Wilmington (about 1 1/4 hours away), Jacksonville (about a 20 minute drive), Swansboro (only about 10 minutes away), Cape Carteret (maybe a 20 minute drive)and the Island of Bogue Banks (approximately 30 minutes away) which includes Emerald Isle, Salter Path, Indian Beach, Pine Knoll Shores and Atlantic Beach. This is a family oriented neighborhood with a large diversity of residents which includes families with children, retirees, empty nesters and singles.

Traveling out of the area is facilitated by easy access to Interstate 40, which is a East/West Interstate, and it feeds into the North/South Interstate 95. The new bypass around Jacksonville is a welcome addition--it is now an easier and faster trip to I-40. Ellis Airport is located outside of Jacksonville and provides flights to major hubs in Raleigh and Atlanta.

Houses in this subdivision range in size and price depending on the location. Waterfront houses tend to be in the 2800 sq. ft to 5000+ sq. ft. range with prices anywhere from $400,000 to $1,000,000. The water view homes range in size from approximately 1900 sq ft. to 3300 sq. ft and priced from $199,000 to approximately $350,000. There are older homes on the interior lots that are smaller and would be priced less but there are also some larger home in the $300,000 price range. Swimming pools are this season's most popular addition with several just completed and/or under construction.

Jacksonville, N C is a progressive town with a strong military presence and support system. There is a wide variety of retail business with many national named stores as well as smaller, locally owned businesses. Onslow Memorial hospital continues to grow and provide the needed medical services for the greater Jacksonville area. Restaurants are plentiful and diverse. The banks and lending institutions are conveniently located throughout the town and there are many different ones.

Swansboro is a quaint, historic and picturesque town where locals and visitors enjoy strolling the streets and browsing in the unique shops. You will not find the box stores here but you will find the small, locally owned business where you will be warmly greeted, invited in and made welcome. (Wal-Green did just open a drug store here so maybe that is an exception). A stop at Yana's Ye Old Drug store for breakfast or lunch is a must--it is a trip down memory lane. A delightful town to visit or live in.

For entertainment you may want to head to Bogue Banks, a barrier island, with many public beach accesses. In Emerald Isle you will find a water slide park, a go-cart race track and a miniature golf course. On down the island to Pine Knoll Shores is where the North Carolina Aquarium is located, a wonderful, educational place to spend a rainy day. The children will love the touch tank. Head on down Highway 58 to Atlantic Beach and almost at the very end of the island you will find Fort Macon State Park. There is a huge parking lot, bath houses, picnic area and an expansive beach. There is also the old civil war fort to explore, park rangers are on duty.
