Welcome to the Daniel Howard House, a beautifully preserved 3-bedroom, 2-bath historic residence that showcases over a century of craftsmanship, character, and thoughtful stewardship. Perfectly positioned on the north side of downtown Wilmington, this home offers an exceptional walkable lifestyle, just steps from the Riverfront, Live Oak Bank Pavilion, the Brooklyn Arts District, and the Soda Pop District, placing dining, entertainment, and cultural attractions right at your doorstep.
From the inviting covered front porch, step into gracious living spaces defined by 11-foot ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and original architectural details that speak to the home's early-1900s origins. A striking double-sided masonry fireplace serves as the focal point between the living and dining areas, creating warmth and character ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
The updated kitchen thoughtfully blends historic charm with modern functionality, featuring stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and a sun-filled breakfast nook perfect for morning coffee. The main level also includes a spacious laundry room, a recently renovated full bathroom (2023), and a versatile mudroom or flex space that adapts easily to today's lifestyle needs.
Upstairs, generously sized bedrooms continue the home's timeless appeal with tall ceilings and abundant natural light. A remodeled full bathroom and a landing ideal for a home office or reading area complete the upper level.
Outside, the property opens to an expansive and private backyard, a rare find for downtown living. Designed as a true retreat, the outdoor space features a wraparound deck, privacy fencing, outdoor storage, and a barrel steam sauna, creating an inviting setting for relaxation and entertaining. An off-street parking space adds everyday convenience.
The Daniel Howard House offers a rare opportunity to own a carefully maintained piece of Wilmington history, combining timeless craftsmanship, walkable downtown living, and an exceptional outdoor retreat.
