Overview

Description

Fully renovated historic craftsman cottage in the heart of Wilmington's Cargo District. The original character is preserved -- classic bungalow roofline, dormer detail, and a covered front porch with ceiling fans and string lights -- while the renovation brought every system and finish completely current. Exterior features fresh white lap siding, dark trim and columns, and a horizontal slat privacy fence that ties the property to the block. Inside, LVP flooring runs throughout the entire home. The main living area is open, bright, and well-lit with recessed lighting and black ceiling fans. The kitchen features white flat-front cabinetry to the ceiling, dark countertops, a wall-mounted stainless range hood, center island, and pendant lighting. Both bedrooms are well-proportioned with ceiling fans, recessed lighting, and built-in closet organization systems. The full bathroom is finished with a floating double vanity, dual LED backlit mirrors, matte black fixtures throughout, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower with full subway tile, rainfall showerhead, and hex tile floor. Rear yard is gravel with a concrete patio slab and full perimeter privacy fence -- low maintenance and fully enclosed. UMX zoning permits live/work, professional office, and short-term rental use. No HOA. Castle Street antique district is a short walk and the Cape Fear riverfront is minutes away.
