Property Description
Stunning 1920's carriage house, perfectly located in the heart of Wilmington's historic Highlands. Tucked on one of the most desirable streets in the neighborhood, this unique and one-of-a-kind home has been artfully updated to retain its historical wood beams and hand-hewn iron tension rods, yielding stately character coupled with modern convenience. The spacious custom kitchen was designed by Biff Barton with intentions of offering the utmost beauty while hosting events and holidays, plus inviting comfort on an everyday basis. Boasting granite and live edge walnut countertops, two ovens, two dishwashers, built in Sub-Zero, custom sustainable wood cabinets, stone backsplash, and a warming pellet stove complete with stone fireplace wall, the space is dramatic while utilitarian. French doors lead to the three-season room with wall-to-wall vision of the gorgeous and vast backyard. The generous patio with space for patio furniture and tables is open to a lush and level healthy lawn bordered with intentionally placed mature landscaping for privacy. The open floor plan dining room features custom cherry built-in cabinets created by Paul Downes of Manayunk, leaving ample space for a sizeable dining room table. Five bedrooms on the upper level are comprised along a grand L shaped hallway which includes large laundry room quarters, plus linen and storage closets. The primary bedroom suite stuns with vaulted ceiling flaunting more exposed wood beams, French doors overlooking the beauty of the outdoors and two walk in closets. Full of openness and warmth, this house is truly a home. Conveniently located and within walking distance to the Delaware Art Museum, Rockford Park, and the restaurants and stores of historic Trolley Square.
