Property Description

Welcome home to this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Cape Cod situated on a fenced corner lot in Gwinhurst. With a new roof, new hot water heater, new HVAC system, and new sump pump, this move-in-ready home is waiting for its new owners to create lasting memories. All appliances, including washer and dryer, are included. Unlike anything else on the market, this home's one-of-a-kind layout creates a sense of privacy and versatility that open floorplans can't offer.

Whether you work from home, host guests, or simply want a home with personality, this rare find invites imagination and comfort in every corner. Step inside to discover a stunning remodeled kitchen featuring brand-new stainless steel appliances, granite countertops with a breakfast bar, and custom white cabinetry. Adjacent to the kitchen, you'll find the first bedroom and a full bathroom, thoughtfully updated with marble tile, a new vanity, and modern fixtures. Just a few steps away, the private primary suite offers two closets and a full en-suite bathroom. Upstairs, the third bedroom loft is filled with serene natural light and brand-new carpeting throughout. The lower level features two versatile bonus rooms with direct access to the backyard ideal for an office, studio, gym, or additional living space. Don't miss this beautifully updated home that perfectly balances character, comfort, and functionality! Conveniently located near I-95 and I-495, and just a short drive to Bellevue State Park, shopping, and dining in North Wilmington, this charming home truly has it all!
