Property Description

Welcome to 1207 Hilltop Ave, a charming stone Colonial built in 1939 and beautifully set on nearly one acre overlooking the surrounding neighborhood. As one of the original homes in the area, this property is rich in character and surrounded by stunning, mature landscaping-including stately oaks, multiple crepe myrtles, ornamental trees, shrubs, pachysandra beds, and thoughtfully designed native perennial gardens. The home offers 3 bedrooms and 2.5 updated baths, along with a heated and air conditioned third floor that has been used for many years as a 4th bedroom-also ideal as a home office, gym, or flexible living space. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, complemented by classic moldings and timeless architectural details. The main level features a formal dining room, a spacious living room with fireplace, a private study, and a charming side screened porch perfect for relaxing. The updated kitchen includes granite countertops and modern conveniences, while the renovated laundry room adds everyday ease. A highlight of the home is the inviting family room addition, filled with natural light and anchored by a gas fireplace crafted from original stone-seamlessly blending old-world charm with modern living. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a beautiful stone patio featuring the original exterior fireplace, and multiple stone walls. A curved stone walkway leads down to the expansive front yard which features landscape lighting. A newer gardener's shed and thoughtfully designed hardscaping enhance the property's functionality and appeal. Additional updates include HVAC and windows, offering peace of mind. With its convenient North Wilmington location, historic charm, and exceptional grounds, this one-of-a-kind home is a rare opportunity. Schedule your private tour today to experience it firsthand.
