About This Home

As of December 2025

Welcome to 9 Emsley Drive, a stately 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom brick-front residence offering 3,150 sq ft of refined living in Wilmington’s highly sought-after Preserve At Presidential Estates. Built in 2007 and meticulously maintained, this home blends timeless architecture with thoughtful upgrades — including a heated, 8-foot extended two-car garage, a full footprint basement, and an expansive outdoor living space. Step into the grand foyer, where gleaming hardwood floors and elegant millwork set the tone. The formal dining room, graced with crown molding and natural light, is ideal for hosting gatherings. The spacious family room features a soaring ceiling and a gas fireplace framed by arched windows, creating a warm yet sophisticated atmosphere. The gourmet kitchen is a showpiece, complete with granite counters, rich wood cabinetry, premium appliances, and peninsula with bar seating. Designed for seamless entertaining, it flows effortlessly into the extended breakfast area and family room, with direct access to the professionally hardscaped paver patio overlooking the private backyard. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a spa-style bath with a soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, and dual vanities. A generous walk-in closet with dressing area offers ample storage. Three additional bedrooms provide comfort and versatility for family or guests. The 15,682 sq ft lot offers both space and privacy, with manicured landscaping and a serene outdoor setting perfect for morning coffee, al fresco dining, or sunset cocktails. Beyond the backyard, the neighborhood itself is full of charm. Just a short stroll away, you’ll find a community pond with a fountain, stocked for fishing — a favorite spot for neighbors (both kids and adults alike) to gather, relax, and enjoy the outdoors together. With its combination of space, craftsmanship, and location, this property represents the best of Wilmington living, and offers an unmatched opportunity to own a residence that balances elegance, function, and lifestyle.
