Property Description

A Landmark Residence. Thoughtfully Restored. Timelessly Elegant. There are homes that simply provide a place to live—and there are homes that become part of your legacy. Offered for under $1.1 million, this extraordinary Colonial Revival residence in Wilmington’s coveted Historic Cool Spring neighborhood presents a rare opportunity to own one of the city’s architectural treasures. Proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this stately brick home has been meticulously restored, preserving its rich history while embracing the comforts and sophistication of modern living. Set on an exceptionally rare double residential lot along picturesque Pennsylvania Avenue, the property immediately captivates with its iconic gambrel roof, mature trees, expansive front porch, and commanding presence. Inside, every room reflects the craftsmanship of another era—soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, intricate millwork, leaded glass windows, grand fireplaces, and elegant architectural details create a home that feels both distinguished and welcoming. While honoring its historic character, the residence has undergone an extensive renovation designed for today’s homeowner. Major improvements include new electrical and plumbing systems, replacement windows, a new roof, beautifully reimagined kitchen and bathrooms, and professionally designed landscaping, providing the confidence of modern infrastructure within a home of extraordinary heritage. Designed for both gracious entertaining and everyday living, the residence offers over three expansive levels with six spacious bedrooms, three and one-half baths, elegant formal living and dining rooms, flexible gathering spaces, a walk-out lower level, and a full-height attic with exceptional storage. Every floor offers spaces that effortlessly adapt to today’s lifestyle—from private home offices and guest suites to playrooms, libraries, or creative studios. Beyond the home itself lies one of its most remarkable features: a private outdoor sanctuary rarely found within the city. The beautifully landscaped backyard has been thoughtfully curated as both an entertainer’s retreat and a gardener’s paradise. An expansive paver terrace, inviting outdoor fireplace, and an abundance of carefully selected, low-maintenance perennial gardens create an idyllic setting for intimate evenings, family celebrations, or peaceful mornings surrounded by blooms throughout the seasons. Adding to its rarity, the property features a long private driveway and detached garage accommodating three or more vehicles—an exceptional luxury in Wilmington’s historic district. Homes of this architectural significance, scale, and level of restoration seldom become available. To find one that combines historic pedigree, modern systems, extraordinary outdoor living, and a premier location at under $1.1 million is truly exceptional. This is more than a beautifully restored historic home—it is an opportunity to own one of Wilmington’s finest residences, thoughtfully prepared for its next chapter.
