About This Home

As of July 2025

Nestled within Highlands Place, a sought-after unique enclave of townhomes within the city of Wilmington’s Highlands neighborhood, this spacious home is well-maintained and waiting for its next owner! Highlands Place, a revered community of only 24 townhomes was established in 1995 on the site of the Academy of Visitation Monastery. Noted for its majestic stone perimeter wall, the interior landscaped courtyard and central garden afford private drive access to individual homeowner garages -- a valued amenity for city living. As you approach the welcoming front door, take a minute to enjoy the slate step stones and lovely landscaped gardens with specimen evergreens, dogwoods, and perennials. Upon entering the home, you’ll immediately notice the natural light from large windows with plantation shutters, the 9’ ceilings, and the natural oak wood floors with hazelnut stain throughout the first floor. The quintessential classic street-front formal dining room is situated off the foyer -- it is a befitting room to gather with family and friends for meals and entertaining. The half-wall opening with Corinthian columns is the gateway to the room, which features beautiful built-in wood bookshelves with accent lighting. Solid wood French pocket doors transition from the dining room to the kitchen and beyond. The crisp and spacious kitchen is a focal point, which opens to the expansive great room. The kitchen features linen-colored wood cabinets, a butcher block countertop complemented by slate-colored countertops, which coordinate with a slate backsplash, and a 7-foot long, counter height bar. The black floating glass appliances include a Jenn Air gas range/oven, refrigerator, and dishwasher, plus GE electric wall oven with microwave above, making it a pleasure to prepare food in this desirable space. Looking out to the great room, the angled gas fireplace sets the tone for a fun, multipurpose living environment. Two sets of French glass-paneled doors provide the gateway to the enclosed, year-round sunroom with plantation window shutters, a Mitsubishi split heating/cooling system, skylights, and a ceramic tile floor. The sunroom overlooks the courtyard gardens. The main floor also includes a powder room, large coat closet, kitchen pantry, and a convenient dumb waiter for easy transport of items from the lower level. Ascending the turned staircase, one finds the primary bedroom ensuite plus two additional bedrooms. The expansive primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and a second closet plus a bathroom featuring a walk-in shower, a full array of built-in lacquered cabinets, and an under-counter refrigerator. The second bedroom is spacious with two closets and the third bedroom includes a generously-sized walk-in closet. Both bedrooms can also serve as an office, sitting room, or craft room. The second-floor laundry room location is ideal! This space is also perfect as an office, yoga studio, game room, or music room. The second-floor laundry room location is ideal! Move to the lower level to find a fourth bedroom ensuite. The lower level serves as entry to the two-car, oversized garage and a storage room that houses the utilities, a utility sink, and shelves for storage. Across from the dumb waiter is space under the steps to finish as a closet or use for more storage. A charming, professionally landscaped center courtyard is shared by the homeowners. The location of this home is convenient to both picturesque Rockford and Brandywine parks, is within walking distance of the Delaware Art Museum, and is located blocks from Trolley Square dining and shops. The home is minutes from downtown Wilmington, I-95, and Route 202. Abundant walking, hiking, and cycling are plentiful to this unique neighborhood! This beautiful home is awaiting its next owners!
