About This Home

As of July 2025

Welcome to 1616 West 14th Street, a beautiful 3 bedroom (formerly 4 bedroom) home located smack dab in the middle of the highly desirable Trolley Square section of Wilmington. With two off street parking spots, this immaculate home has been well updated with plenty of modern amenities, but still maintains all of the charm of the original construction. The modern kitchen is a cook's dream with all stainless steel appliances, upgraded cabinets, tile backsplash, gorgeous wood floors, and high powered vent. Dedicated Dining Room is a perfect place for dinner with company, and adjacent living room has loads of natural light and custom shelving. New paint, lighting, and custom shades, give the whole home a bright and airy feel. Just look at the pictures! Upstairs, in addition to three bedrooms and a full bath, the fourth bedroom was transformed into a custom laundry room and storage area complete with granite counter tops, sink, and plenty of extra storage space for clothes. This is an amazing upgrade that is rarely found in city homes. Other interior amenities include hardwood floors, and newer windows. Central Air (2013) and Gas Heater (2016), roof (2008 & 2014) are newer. Basement was fully water proofed, and concrete floor repoured (2015). Work benches, peg board, and accessories come with the home. Plumbing and some framing is there for the future owner who would like to add an extra full bath. Whole house was rewired (2015), and attic was resealed and insulated with blown insulation. This house is tight! Outdoor space is not lacking at all. The beautiful and large front porch is a perfect spot to watch the world go by, and the fenced back yard with lawn, brick patio, tasteful landscaping, storage shed, and custom fold out gardening table will have you enjoying the outdoors. Last but not least, there are TWO OFF STREET parking spots along with a second storage shed. Make your appointment today!
