Description
Welcome to Lincoln Forest, one of Wilmington's established, beautiful and conveniently located neighborhoods with no HOA! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick home sits on a spacious .40-acre lot and offers a wonderful opportunity for a primary residence or investment property.
The location is hard to beat, with easy access to so many of Wilmington's shopping, dining, schools, and everyday conveniences. The neighborhood's abundant sidewalks make it easy to get outside and even walk to many nearby destinations.
Several important updates have already been taken care of, including a roof replaced in 2019, HVAC replaced in 2017, newer windows, and a tankless natural gas water heater. The home also features natural gas heat, with the potential to add additional gas appliances or gas logs to the fireplace.
The home is comfortable and very livable as it is, while also offering plenty of opportunity for a new owner to make updates and personalize it over time. The seller recognizes that some updating may be desired and has priced the home accordingly, making this a great opportunity to get into a sought-after Wilmington neighborhood and add your own style and improvements.
Whether you're looking for a primary residence or rental property, this home offers great potential, a generous lot, and a fantastic location. Current school assignments include Alderman Elementary, Roland-Grise Middle, and Hoggard High School.
