Discover historic charm and modern convenience in this beautifully updated 1958 duplex, located just a few blocks from the heart of Historic Downtown Wilmington. This unique property offers two fully renovated units, making it an ideal investment opportunity or a great option for multi-generational living. Unit A, the main house, features 1,142 sq. ft. of open-concept living with durable commercial-grade LVP flooring throughout. A charming rocking chair front porch welcomes you into a bright and inviting space. The kitchen is equipped with granite & marble countertops and brand-new stainless steel appliances, including a refrigerator, dishwasher, stove, and built-in microwave. The main living area is complemented by a full bathroom with a walk-in shower, while three spacious bedrooms—each with new ceiling fans—share a second full bathroom with dual vanities and a tub/shower combo. A dedicated laundry room is conveniently located just off the kitchen. Unit B, the detached second unit, spans 1,003 sq. ft. and mirrors the high-end finishes of the main home. The first level includes a garage for storage, a cozy living area, and a kitchenette with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. A stylish barn door opens to reveal a washer/dryer hookup and built-in pantry shelving. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with a tub/shower combo, providing a comfortable and private living space. Both units have been extensively updated with a completely new electrical system, including panels and wiring, as well as all-new plumbing. Additional improvements include new water heaters, energy-efficient windows, new flooring, cabinets, and countertops with stylish hardware, updated bathrooms with new vanities, tubs, toilets, and shower doors, a new garage door, mini-split HVAC systems, and new interior and exterior doors. Outside, a spacious fenced-in backyard adds to the appeal of this versatile property.
