Property Description

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.

From the street, you'll appreciate the classic architectural character reminiscent of early-1900s downtown Wilmington. 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
Electric range with commercial-style exhaust hood
Convenient pot filler
Abundant cabinetry and storage for all your kitchen essentials
The primary suite is a showstopper. The wall-less shower and tub configuration creates a spa-like experience reminiscent of a luxury hotel. Incredible tile work, a double-sink vanity, and carefully selected finishes make this a space you'll truly enjoy coming home to.

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. For those interested in short-term rental potential, it could also provide an opportunity for a highly profitable Airbnb, subject to applicable local regulations and approvals.

Historic on the outside. Luxury on the inside. Downtown convenience all around.

This is the kind of property that gives you the best of both worlds--the charm of historic Wilmington without the historic-home headaches.
