Welcome to your private oasis in the heart of Wilmington's beloved Forest Hills neighborhood.
Located on the historic greenway once used by the city's trolley line, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on a spacious lot with a lush, oversized backyard—a rare find in this sought-after area. Whether you're gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy, the outdoor space offers endless possibilities.
Inside, the home's layout is both efficient and inviting. The bright living room features a cozy fireplace, perfect for cool evenings, while large windows bring in an abundance of natural light. A dedicated office or study provides flexible space for remote work or hobbies, and the separate laundry room adds extra convenience.
The kitchen and bath have been thoughtfully updated in recent years, and the home includes newer windows, HVAC, water heater, and a Fortified Roof (April 2025) for added protection and potential insurance savings. In 2024, the crawl space was professionally encapsulated, enhancing energy efficiency and peace of mind. Fresh interior paint in May 2025 gives the home a clean, modern feel while maintaining its timeless character.
With sidewalks out front and the scenic greenway just steps away, this location blends neighborhood charm with unbeatable walkability. You're minutes from downtown, the beach, and all that Wilmington has to offer.
Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizer, or investor, this home offers comfort, character, and long-term value. Don't miss this rare opportunity on Park Ave!
