About This Home
As of March 2022Overall, for this property --- FOUR BEDROOMS and FOUR BATHS. Are you tired of what Realtors ordinarily write for a description? Well, this will be different. Promise! Welcome to the Town of Bellefonte. (Do you know this historic pocket of suburban North Wilmington?) This property is walking distance (only 2 buildings between this property and the center of Bellefonte.) Because Bellefonte is historic and unique, there are 2 permitted uses for zoning. RESIDENTIAL. APARTMENT. See maps in Documents section and pictures. BIG HOUSE. Granite kitchen. Awesome appliances. Efficient gas heat and heat pump depending upon where you are in the house. THIRD FLOOR MAN CAVE. Really! Mostly finished area that needs only a little work (carpet is there, just not installed) to make the entire third floor the perfect place to hide, except this MAN CAVE has natural light and overlooks neighbors which makes it perfect. TREX is on all porches and balcony. See pictures. And behind the BIG MAIN house, see the DETACHED 2-car garage. And above the 2-car garage, there is a LEGAL APARTMENT for income producing space or guests and extended family. Unusual is an understatement. (Intrigued?) Main house is 3 bedrooms with 3 full baths. Yes, one of the bedrooms is on the first floor! Above the detached 2-car garage find the Apartment with one more bedroom and one more bath. That makes a total of FOUR BEDROOMS and FOUR BATHS. Updates throughout! SIX FOOT PRIVACY FENCE for the entire rear yard at the house. Off Street parking. (BIG DRIVEWAY) that takes you to the detached 2-car garage with the APARTMENT above. County tax records are not accurate as County underestimated size, age, updates, and more. Nope! You have never seen anything like this. But you can see it. And you can own it.
