Property Description

Historic charm meets modern peace of mind in this beautifully updated 3-bedroom bungalow in the heart of Wilmington's sought-after Cargo District. Thoughtfully renovated while preserving its original character, this home features the upgrades buyers value most, including updated electrical and plumbing, crawlspace subfloor and structural beam repairs with full crawlspace remediation, a new HVAC system, newer roof, newer water heater, and newer appliances. Inside, luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout a bright, open layout accented by exposed brick, vintage metal window awnings, fresh interior paint accents, and timeless architectural details. The spacious primary suite offers an oversized walk-in closet rarely found in homes of this era. A generous second bedroom includes a large closet and built-in desk nook, while the third bedroom with French doors provides flexibility as a guest room, office, or creative space. The remodeled bathroom showcases designer tile that perfectly blends the home's historic character with modern style. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard shaded by mature pecan and magnolia trees, a welcoming front porch, off-street parking, and the added convenience of potential rear access from the Queen Street alley. Located just steps from the Cargo District's popular coffee shops, breweries, restaurants, boutiques, galleries, arcade, and monthly market, and only two blocks from the vibrant Castle Street Arts & Antiques District. Downtown Wilmington's Riverwalk, Greenfield Lake Park, and area beaches are all just minutes away.
