This gorgeous property is a storybook ready to be written. Enter the jasmine-covered arbor to the landscaped front yard with towering pecan trees, a winding river rock bed + wooden bridge. Sit a while on the mahogany front porch then enter this treasure with the perfect mix of historic features & modern conveniences. Just two years ago, the home was taken to the studs & remodeled including a metal roof, HVAC (zoned), & windows replaced. The modern kitchen has updated cabinets, SS appliances, tile backsplash, farmhouse sink, & granite countertops + breakfast bar. Historical features saved including original hardwood floors, fireplace (converted to gas logs), built-in glass front cabinets in the living room, solid 5-panel doors with crystal door knobs, plus tongue & groove accents. Upstairs is the primary bedroom with hardwood floors + updated en suite bath & walk-in closet, plus 2 additional bedrooms with updated guest bath off the hallway. Pull-down stairs lead to a floored attic for storage plus a secret bonus room (not incl. in sq. ft.) with A/C to use as you choose. Endless hot water with the natural gas tankless water heater. Recent additions: Reverse osmosis faucet, ring doorbell & cameras, irrigation system, 12 x 12 screened porch overlooking the fire pit, swimming pool with NEW pump & wooden stairs, planters & privacy screen + cabana/shed for outdoor entertaining with a bar & workshop/storage. Fully fenced private yard with a designated dog run & doggie door for Fido's personal convenience. Off-street parking and convenient alley access in the back. All appliances + washer/dryer included, many furniture pieces are negotiable. Downtown Wilmington boasts sidewalks on the lovely tree-lined streets where you can explore nearby parks, landmarks, & all that downtown has to offer. Only 4 blocks to Soda Pop District with Hi-Wire Brewery & the new Bowstring Brewyard. Minutes to the Cape Fear Riverwalk, shopping, dining, golf, & Wrightsville Beach!
