Property Description
Welcome to 218 Duncan Ave - a warm, versatile home in one of North Wilmington's most convenient and established neighborhoods. From the moment you step inside, the richness of hardwood floors throughout sets the tone for a home that's been thoughtfully maintained and move-in ready. The freshly painted first floor feels bright and inviting, offering a flexible floor plan that adapts to the way you actually live. The living room is flooded with natural light through the front and side windows. The dining room is large enough to host all your get togethers and dinner parties and the picture frame molding and crown molding will add class to any occasion. The eat-in kitchen offers granite counter, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting and access to the spacious backyard. The main-level bedroom doubles beautifully as a home office, playroom, or guest suite - whatever your lifestyle demands - and a conveniently located half bath completes the first floor. Upstairs you'll find three well-sized bedrooms and a full bath, providing the comfortable separation between living and sleeping spaces that you will appreciate. Head downstairs to the partially finished basement - the perfect spot for movie nights, game days, or entertaining guests around the built-in bar. Whether it becomes your entertainment hub or a quiet escape, this bonus space adds real versatility to the home. Enjoy upcoming spring & summer evenings on the rear patio looking over your large flat rear yard. Head over to Goodley Park, just one block away, which features a playground, gazebo and picnic tables. The location makes any commute a breeze with Route 202 and I-95 just minutes away, putting Philadelphia, Wilmington's downtown, shopping, dining and entertainment all within easy reach. 218 Duncan Ave checks every box - flexible living spaces, classic hardwood character, a finished basement with a bar, and a location that keeps you connected to everything.
