Historic Charm. Modern Luxury. Downtown Wilmington. Love the idea of living downtown but hate the thought of constantly repairing and upgrading a 100+ year-old home? This is your answer. This beautifully updated 1890s 2-bedroom, 2-bath single-family home delivers the character and charm of historic downtown Wilmington without sacrificing the comfort, style, and amenities of modern construction.

Step through the front door, however, and you'll discover a completely different experience: modern luxury, thoughtful design, and high-end finishes throughout. Inside, you'll find: Luxury LVP flooring throughout Coffered ceilings with concealed lighting Wainscoting and shiplap accent walls A spectacular chef's kitchen featuring a cathedral ceiling and exposed, backlit beams Leather-finish granite countertops Stainless-steel appliances Oversized porcelain farmhouse sink with elevated spray fixture Subway tile backsplash and walls Induction range that will boil water in under a minute with commercial-quality exhaust hood Oversized (160,000 BTU),gas fired on demand tankless hot water delivering 7 gallons per minute.

The guest bathroom is equally impressive, combining textures, colors, intricate tile work, a corner shower, lighted floral accent walls, and a backlit mirror. No detail has been overlooked. Even the laundry room gets the luxury treatment. Though compact, it offers a utility basin, butcher-block-style cabinetry, folding space, and plenty of storage for household necessities. Step outside into the fully fenced backyard, where you'll find a custom 10' x 12' outbuilding that is anything but an ordinary shed. While it may not quite qualify as an ADU, add a mini-split and you have the makings of an incredible private office, creative studio, hobby space, or personal retreat. And then there's the location. Enjoy some of Wilmington's finest downtown dining, shopping, entertainment, and nightlife within a short walk from your front door--without the hassle and expense of downtown parking. Whether you're looking for a stylish full-time residence, a downtown getaway, or an investment opportunity, this property offers tremendous flexibility.
