Property Description
Welcome to Historic Downtown Wilmington! You must see this exquisite example of historic restoration on arguably the finest block in Historic Downtown Wilmington. Lovingly restored and cared for over many years by Award Winning Preservationist Michael Smith, this four bedroom, two bath home in the heart of the Historic District is brimming with beautiful original details in every room. From the enchanting foyer with a gorgeous original fireplace you will enter the living room/sitting room featuring large original bay windows, detailed woodwork and beautifully cared for original floors. A second large seating room is perfect for a less formal family area, with it's beautiful original fireplace. The formal dining room features wallcoverings imported from France as well as an antique oil chandelier from England. The kitchen was updated about 15 years ago and there is a lovely breakfast room that offers a view of the beautiful yard that is filled with blooming azaleas and a Cherry Tree that is the centerpiece of the garden. Four large bedrooms upstairs and a full laundry room make this home more than just a showplace, but a comfortable haven. Each bedroom features beautiful woodwork, original floors and closets that are quite large for a historic home. The upstairs bath features an antique vanity with carved soap dishes as part of the design. The back staircase is a winding stair that will take you to the kitchen and breakfast area. For lovers of historic homes and the magical Historic District of Downtown Wilmington this location is prime. On street parking is restricted for visitors and residents are offered parking stickers and passes for their guests. Stroll to restaurants and attractions along the award winning Riverwalk, but save time for enjoying your large front porch with friendly neighbors at the end of your day.
