About This Home
Discover this charming 3-story brick townhome in Wilmington’s sought-after Happy Valley neighborhood, offering picturesque views of the Brandywine Creek. Character and warmth flow throughout with exposed brick walls on both the lower and main living levels. The entry floor features a bright foyer and a spacious, renovated bedroom complete with a private half bath and a generously sized laundry closet with a new washer. Upstairs, the main living level impresses with a large living room anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, and an upgraded eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances. A sizable dining area opens through sliding doors to the deck, where you can enjoy serene views of the creek and nearby park. A separate bonus room just off the dining area adds versatility—ideal for a home office, walk-in pantry, or creative space. The top floor offers two generous bedrooms and a full bath. Outdoor living continues with a paver patio below the deck. All of this is just one block from the Brandywine Creek walking trail, a half block to a public playground, and within close reach of Trolley Square’s vibrant dining and shopping, plus a weekly farmer’s market across the creek. Mortgage savings may be available for buyers of this listing.
