Property Description
This historic Wawaset rowhome sits tucked in the heart of one of Wilmington's most charming and convenient neighborhoods. Architectural details run throughout this 3 story Georgian style period home, including original doors & hardware, classic doorway moldings and picture moldings. Enter into the foyer from the large covered front porch and immediately notice hardwood floors and 9 ft ceilings that run throughout most of the home. The comfortable living room sits to the right with brick fireplace and built-in shelving. Continue through to the spacious dining room with sliding doors to the retreat-like gardens. The updated kitchen features newer stainless steel appliances, 42" cabinets, granite counters and a pantry closet found off the kitchen in a mudroom area. Upstairs to the second floor find 2 well-sized bedrooms, a private office and full updated bath. The third floor features a private suite with bedroom with window bench, separate walk-in closet/dressing room and full bath. The walk-out basement features family room area and half bath. The rear yard offers a perfect space to relax with finely manicured flower beds, flowering trees and stone area, for easy maintenance. A tall privacy fence borders the property and a covered deck is perfect for entertaining. This classic home offers all of the comforts of modern living while preserving much of its historical charm. Just a short walk to restaurants, downtown Wilmington, and nearby parks.
