Description

A unique opportunity to own a piece of Wilmington history "The Shining Star of Quaker Hill"! This charming all-brick, semi-detached home combines historic character with modern updates in a convenient downtown location. Featuring distinctive Flemish bond brickwork, walls measuring more than 18 inches thick in some areas, and a history dating back to the 18th century, this property offers architectural details rarely found in today's homes.
A gated front yard welcomes you into the home, where an inviting foyer opens to an eat-in galley kitchen. Beautifully refinished hardwood floors lead to a spacious, light-filled living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace and direct access to a large deck overlooking the city of Wilmington—an ideal setting for relaxing or entertaining.
Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom and large closets. A hall staircase continues to the third-floor walk-in attic, offering potential for additional finished living space. The lower level provides even more flexibility with a powder room, dedicated laundry room, and a second family room with fireplace that could potentially serve as an additional bedroom, home office, or guest space. An attached garage, accessible from the lower-level family room, adds convenience rarely found in city living.
Extensive recent upgrades and improvements make this home move-in ready, including refinished hardwood floors and fresh interior paint (2026), a new roof (2021), new HVAC system (2022), new deck and garage roof (2024), and an upgraded electrical service and panel (2026).
Situated on a corner lot near the historic Friends Meeting House, the property offers easy access to downtown Wilmington's restaurants, shops, and entertainment, as well as the Riverfront, Wilmington Amtrak Station, and I-95. With its distinctive architecture, thoughtful updates, garage, and exceptional outdoor living space, this home offers a wonderful blend of historic charm and modern convenience.
