Step into this beautifully preserved piece of Wilmington history. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is located in the historic Carolina Place neighborhood. Built in 1913 and thoughtfully renovated this home blends timeless character with modern upgrades.
Historical touches like original plank ceilings and walls, transoms, glass doorknobs throughout and areas of original hardwood flooring blend historical charm and character.
The alley access provides 1 off-street parking spaces in addition to the rare oversized detached 1 car garage/flex space.
Natural light fills this home through the recently installed solar tubes and the open concept design combines the kitchen and living area for a seamless living space.
The primary suite features a spacious walk-in tile shower, modern double vanity and custom walk-in closet while the secondary bedrooms share a unique walkthrough tiled tub/shower combo—each with its own private vanity space.
Relax or swing on the inviting front porch or entertain on the brick courtyard patio surrounded by low maintenance native pollinator friendly plants found in the beautiful landscape.
Additional highlights include fresh interior & exterior paint, newly refaced kitchen cabinets, refinished kitchen flooring, reverse osmosis water filter and keyless entry.
Conveniently located near downtown Wilmington, Wallace Park, Burnt Mill Creek, Cargo District, Port City Java, and nearby bike paths with Cross City Trail access.
