Description

Tucked away in the heart of Wilmington yet close to everything, this beautifully maintained home offers the best of both worlds! Just minutes from I-95, Concord Avenue shops, restaurants, and local coffee spots, it sits in a charming circular neighborhood with newer construction homes built in the 90s—rare for the city. Enjoy the convenience of two assigned parking spaces and step inside to a bright, inviting layout. The living room flows into a separate dining area and then to the kitchen, where you’ll find a half bath, access to the finished basement, and a back door leading to the newer Trex deck with solar lighting—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The second level features a spacious primary suite with neutral paint, abundant natural light, and a large full bath with double sinks, a linen closet, and plenty of storage. A generously sized second bedroom completes this level. Upstairs, the third floor offers a versatile open landing (great for an office), plus a third bedroom with a cozy dormer nook, custom closet with built-in shoe rack, and additional bonus space. The finished basement boasts new flooring, excellent lighting, a separate storage room, and laundry area—providing both functionality and extra living space. With modern systems, fresh updates, and immaculate upkeep, this home stands out from the typical city property. It’s move-in ready and truly a rare find!
