Property Description

Beautifully preserved 1889 historic home in the heart of downtown Wilmington, offering charming one-level living with modern updates. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home features original hardwood floors, 10-foot ceilings, and two working fireplaces--one gas and one wood-burning. The updated kitchen boasts custom cabinetry and quartz countertops, while both bathrooms offer custom tile, walk-in showers, and glass doors. Enjoy morning coffee or evening drinks on the spacious front porch, or relax in the gated brick courtyard. Flower beds and window boxes add charm without the maintenance of a lawn. Just a few blocks from the Cape Fear River, Riverwalk, restaurants, shops, historic downtown, and the Castle Street District. A rare opportunity to enjoy Wilmington's downtown lifestyle while owning a beautifully maintained piece of the city's history. This home is a must see!
