If you appreciate Melissa McCarthy’s talent and have viewed the 2014 film Tammy, then you’ll probably recall the stunning shingle-style residence showcased in the movie. This property was owned by Lenore (Kathy Bates) and Susanne (Sandra Oh), who host a notable 4th of July celebration at the estate. There is an abundance of screen time highlighting the beautiful house. Crafted by architect Alex D Latham III and constructed by David James, this seaside residence was built with entertaining in mind, boasting a primary house with 6,900 square feet along with 2,400 square feet of terraces and balconies. A separate guest house above the three-car garage offers an extra 900 square feet. Situated on a 2.17-acre lot with 700 feet of waterfront at the entrance of Whiskey Creek and the ICWW. Notable features consist of a large freeform saltwater swimming pool, Kolbe & Kolbe hurricane-resistant windows and doors, and a floating dock with four boat slips and a lift. The estate was recognized as a Home of Distinction in the September 2009 edition of Wrightsville Beach Magazine and was recently featured again as one of the Best Homes of Distinction in the January 2015 edition. The residence was also included in the July 2015 issue of Better Living. It has appeared in several films, including “A Walk to Remember,” “Mary and Martha” (starring Hilary Swank), “Tammy” (as Lenore’s lake house), and the Nicholas Sparks film “The Choice.” The property last traded hands in 2017 for $3,295,000.
