Property Description
Welcome to this charming mid-century cape cod style cottage perfectly situated in a prime location just minutes from the airport and a short drive to downtown Wilmington. From the moment you enter through the front door, you're welcomed by a classic stone fireplace that anchors the living space. While nonfunctional, it serves as a beautiful architectural focal point and a reminder of the home's original craftsmanship. The inviting eat-in kitchen blends country charm with thoughtful details, featuring butcher block countertops, a single farm-style sink, and a timeless green subway tile backsplash. Just beyond the kitchen lies the heart of the home, the spacious family room. A stunning feature wall showcases a functional wood-burning stove, topped with a striking railroad-tie-style mantel, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere ideal for relaxing evenings, entertaining guests, or curling up with a good book. On the opposite side of the home, two bedrooms share a full bathroom, offering a convenient and practical layout for daily living. Back in the main living area, a charming spindle staircase leads upstairs to additional bonus spaces that provide exceptional flexibility. Currently used as an office and bedroom, these areas could easily serve as guest quarters, a creative studio, playroom, or quiet retreat. A shared half bath adds convenience, and storage is plentiful with three attic eave access points. Outside, the home is perfectly positioned on a quiet corner lot surrounded by mature hardwoods, offering both privacy and a serene setting. The expansive powered workshop is a true standout feature ideal for woodworking, hobbies, storage, or even a future creative or business space. For added peace of mind, the seller is providing a home warranty potentially a limited warranty on the roof. This unique cottage offers character you can't recreate, flexible living spaces, and room to truly make it your own all in a setting that feels like home the moment you arrive
