About This Home

As of July 2014

Lovely 2 story brick home in a convenient Wilmington location! You'll notice the charming, old world touches as you walk into the living room with brick fireplace and the dining room with the vintage chandelier, original trimwork and twin closets flanking either side of the doorway. Original hardwood floors are in great shape! What makes this home truly unique is the DOUBLE LOT and driveway for OFF STREET PARKING! Kitchen is very spacious and in good shape, though you may want to do some updating. All this plus solid construction, fenced back yard with deck and partially finished walk out basement add up to a great deal! Schedule your tour!
