Description

Stunning renovation of this beautiful 1872 home in the Historic District of Wilmington NC. Winner of the Historic Wilmington Foundation award for renovation in 2021! A mix of Old Wilmington charm and upscale modern amenities make this an ideal home. This 5 Bedroom 2.5 bath home is on .33 acre with a long brick driveway, and iron gates leading to an accessory cottage suitable for rentals. This home is both grand and very livable, with original finishes, floors and windows lovingly restored by the current owners, and where necessary, appropriate new finishes hand crafted to match the original. Don't miss the mosaic in the master shower that is 16,000 pieces of hand cut marble imported from France, or the backyard gate shipped from North Africa. All rooms are large and bedroom closets are much larger than you might expect to find in a home of this age. The kitchen features exposed brick and top of the line appliances, with a marble island for gathering around. There are granite and marble countertops throughout the home. Ceilings are 11 ft. high downstairs and 10 ft. high upstairs. Wood floors were restored by hand and finished to protect them for years to come. Step into the backyard oasis with multiple spaces for entertaining and play. The yard is a certified wildlife sanctuary. There is a permit in hand for a swimming pool, approved by the Historic District Commission. The one bedroom guest cottage is original to the property and has been restored and updated with the same care that was given to the main house, with stainless appliances and marble counter tops. Ample parking is afforded on the brick driveway that leads you to the back yard and deck. All systems and appliances are newer, and the standing seam roof has been inspected and resealed .The home sits squarely in the middle of the Downtown Wilmington Historic District and is surrounded by homes of similar quality and condition.
