About This Home
As of September 2023Welcome to Highpoint! This incredibly well maintained charmer is rich with history and old-world charm! Situated on the largest lot in the neighborhood, and surrounded by a beautifully diverse mix of perennial plantings, you'll spend just as much time taking in the beauty outside as in! Walk up the inviting path to the front door, and take a pause to sit on the patio to take it all in. Once inside, you'll pass through a cozy foyer before entering the huge living room. From here you'll fall in love with the hardwood flooring with intricate contrasting inlay. Classic crown molding and decorative trim adorn the walls and doorways, and surround the functional wood burning fireplace insert. To continue through to the dining room, you'll open a set of ornate, hand made iron gates. These, and all of the other tasteful iron touches, are thanks to the home's builder/original owner - William H. Bullock, the owner of Bullock Iron Works on the 3000 block of Tatnall St. In Wilmington! Moving through the dining room, you'll want to check out the sunroom complete with a second fireplace, tons of windows to enjoy the gardens, and even more elaborate wood and metal trim accents. But don't stop there! Step through the first floor powder room and into and incredible greenhouse! This is a truly functional greenhouse with proper ventilation, sun exposure, and built in humidification system. A gardener's dream! Before moving outside, be sure to venture upstairs to check out the 3 generously sized bedrooms and full bath! Once outside, you'll have plenty to admire from the large, rear deck including a vegetable garden, raised planters, and inviting fire pit. A storage shed provides ample space for all of your landscaping equipment, while keeping the oversized garage available for the cars or your workshop! The garage even has an upstairs area for extra storage, hangout area, or possibly an office! A unique carport, updated updated gas boiler, dry basement, and super convenient location are just a few more of the many reasons why you'll want to stop what you're doing to come tour this home! Don't miss out, you won't find another one like this!
