Property Description

Updated, charming, and absolutely bursting with character—this is the one you’ve been waiting for. Tucked away in the sought-after Fairfax community and backing directly to Blue Rock Park, this home puts you exactly where you want to be. With quick access to 202 and 95, your favorite shopping and dining are always just a few minutes away. From the curb, the classic all-brick design and thoughtful landscaping make a great first impression. Step inside to find a fresh, modern palette and beautiful natural hardwood floors that span both levels. The living room feels bright and airy thanks to a ton of natural light, flowing effortlessly into the formal dining room and a stylishly updated kitchen. The kitchen is a standout, featuring maple cabinetry, brand-new quartz countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. By opening the wall to the dining area, the owners added a butcher block peninsula and breakfast bar—perfect for hosting friends or grabbing a quick morning coffee. Just off the kitchen, a large screened-in porch offers a peaceful spot to catch a spring breeze. It overlooks a massive, fully fenced backyard with a storage shed and plenty of grass for kids or pets to roam. Plus, with Blue Rock Park’s playground and basketball courts just steps away, your "backyard" feels even bigger. Head up the gorgeous exposed staircase to find three spacious bedrooms, each featuring hardwoods, ample closet space, and modern ceiling fans. The hall bath has been beautifully refreshed with a marble-top vanity, custom tile work, gold hardware, and chic shelving. Need more space? The recently finished basement adds a whole new dimension to the home, boasting durable LVP flooring, recessed lighting, a handy half-bath, and a dedicated laundry/utility room with extra storage. Complete with a private two-car driveway and a long list of maintenance-free upgrades, it’s clear this home has been meticulously loved and cared for. Homes in this part of North Wilmington don't sit for long—don’t let this one pass you by!
