Step into the character and charm of historic Wilmington with this distinctive twin home, originally built in 1900 and ideally positioned in one of the city’s most desirable and convenient neighborhoods. Blending classic architectural character with an opportunity to create a home tailored to your lifestyle, this approximately 1,400-square-foot residence offers an uncommon combination of location, flexibility, and potential. The timeless brick façade creates an inviting first impression, while warm wood flooring adds character and continuity throughout the interior.

Outside, the approximately 0.06-acre lot offers a charming urban setting with space to create a private garden, patio, outdoor dining area, or peaceful spot to enjoy morning coffee and evening relaxation. Convenient on-street parking adds to the ease of city living. Beyond the property itself, the location places you close to the energy and amenities that make Wilmington so appealing, including local restaurants, cafés, shopping, entertainment, cultural attractions, parks, and everyday conveniences. With easy access to major roadways and surrounding communities, this home offers an ideal balance of neighborhood character and accessibility.
