Downtown Wilmington home in the Historic District, near to Cape Fear River Walk

This classic, downtown house has the look and feel of a home built in the early 1900s, but all the updates of a home built just over a decade ago. Conveniently located in downtown Wilmington's historic district, and just a short walk to our booming central business district, this thoughtfully designed home has it all. A cozy, covered front porch is perfect for receiving and entertaining friends and neighbors, while the screened porch is better served for those best of friends that stay a little longer. Inside, the main floor is covered with wide plank oak hardwoods, and offers a spacious living room, breakfast area, half bath with laundry closet, and a tastefully designed kitchen featuring granite, stainless appliances, and an impressive bar area with glass display cabinets. The hardwood floors continue upstairs, where you'll find all three bedrooms including a generously appointed master suite. Home has been meticulously maintained and is ready for someone new to call it home.
Utilities included: electricity, heat, internet, air conditioning and water.

Quiet, charming, excellent home!
Quiet, charming, quite clean and roomy home! Very good quality finishes (I'm a former trim carpenter) and work inside. A couple of trains in the middle of the night, but otherwise amazingly quiet and comfortable! We were greeted by a neighborhood cat and entertained by the squirrels while there..! Parking wasn't bad, only had to park down the street once. Had a little mixup with check in initially but was straightened out promptly, no issues. We had a terrific visit and this home made it all the more special!

Family Meet Up
This home is a complete gem, nestled in a quiet neighborhood near everything you would want to do in downtown Wilmington. 4 blocks from the waterfront, and within walking distance of several coffee shops, restaurants, and attractions. We loved having quiet gatherings on the front porch. The house is tastefully decorated, and provided everything we needed for our family gathering. Loved this house!

Immaculate and comfortable
This house is beautiful- seems to have been renovated and/or recently redecorated. Everything was in perfect working order, plenty of towels and paper supplies. We were visiting with my 87 yo mother so weren’t able to do a lot of walking but for a younger group this house is located in a quiet neighborhood but a very comfortable walking distance to the downtown area. We would absolutely stay here again when visiting Wilmington.

Sweet, sentimental journey
Being from Hawaii, I live a really long way from Wilmington, which is my mother‘s birthplace. I came here 25 years after she passed away to meet second cousins and their children for the first time. I chose this beautiful house purposely in the historic district and large enough that I could have one or two friends over at a time from various parts of my life: college, graduate school, and the U.S. Army. All of them loved the house as much as I did and we were extremely comfortable. The location was perfect for walking down to the river and eating at so many wonderful restaurants.

Terrific place!
We would love to stay here again. The house was extremely clean. The location was ideal. It’s in a great neighborhood, near Front Street, and close to many good restaurants. The hosts were responsive and helpful. Our family of four were grateful for the three nice bedrooms, laundry, and a stocked kitchen. What a great place!

Weekend in Historic Wilmington
The house provided the perfect accommodation for my husband and my weekend in Wilmington while visiting our adult son who also stayed with us. The house is located in the heart of the historic downtown neighborhood which allowed us to walk to all of the area restaurants, coffee shops, and entertainment. The house as well as most in the neighborhood are magnificent, so well maintained and painted in beautiful colors. And as a bonus many were festively decorated for the upcoming Halloween holiday. We much preferred staying in a house to a hotel so we could enjoy our coffee and wine on the comfortable front porch or make our own light meals in the well-appointed kitchen. The house also provides more privacy and quiet than we would have had staying in a hotel. I would definitely recommend this property and would happily stay there again if the opportunity to return to Wilmington arises.

This is easier and more cost effective than nearly hotel experience can present you. Unobtrusive and available host. Spotless house. You’re walking to town in architecturally intriguing neighborhood. It’s a winner.
