    Welcome to your secret garden in the heart of Wilmington.This charming 3 bed, 2 bath bungalow built in 1928 sits on .92 acres in the sought after neighborhood of Brookwood, adjacent to Forest Hills. Extensive renovations were completed in 2013, including updated electrical and plumbing. This home has had many updates since, with a new roof in 2019, heat pump in 2022, irrigation well in 2014, hot water heater in 2023 and beautifully landscaped and extensive gardens designed for entertaining. As you step inside, you will find 9' ceilings, hardwood floors throughout, marble countertops and a gas range in the kitchen, plantation shutters, a spa like primary bath, walk in laundry room/pantry, and a private side porch, in addition to many outdoor seating areas in the garden. The concrete floored walk in storage under the house and the floored attic offer plenty of storage, in addition to a gardening shed/workshop.This property is truly a hidden gem and must be seen in person to fully appreciate the beauty of the extensive gardens and the surrounding area. The back of the property, beyond the fence, borders Burnt Mill Creek near Forest Hills Elementary. This location is walkable and bike-able to Cargo District, Soda Pop District, Downtown and Midtown and is only a 15 minute drive to Wrightsville Beach. This is a rare find!
