Property Description

Imagine becoming part of the 150-year history of this beautiful downtown Wilmington home. This 3-bedroom, 2 full bath home is located across from the historic St. Stephen AME Church on the southern edge of the Brooklyn Arts District, and it's a short walk to the heart of downtown Wilmington. Enter from the covered porch into the Living Room which features a 9' tray ceiling, pass by a full bathroom complete with a clawfoot tub, and enjoy the view of the fenced and lusciously landscaped backyard from the large, light-filled kitchen. A sizeable, screened porch and a brick patio provide extra entertaining space, and a shed provides additional storage space. Back inside, the other side of the first floor hosts the Master Bedroom and large, renovated ensuite bathroom with a walk-in closet. The other two bedrooms are upstairs. The home has a reverse osmosis water filter and whole house water softener. The washer and dryer as well as all kitchen appliances convey. There is a convection oven with an induction stone. The property includes an outdoor shower for your trips to the beach as well as an off-street parking space.
