Property Description

Cute as a button ''two in one'' bungalow located in the desirable Summer Hills neighborhood of Historic Sunset Park. The front and back units each feature two bedrooms and one bath, with the front boasting LVP flooring and the back showcasing original hardwoods and a large walk-in closet. A full attic with a window provides potential for additional living space (buyer to verify). Numerous recent upgrades enhance both value and peace of mind, including updated framing, plumbing, and electrical; a fully renovated bathroom in the rear unit; updated kitchen cabinets and appliances; HVAC systems (2020); a brand-new roof (2026); and energy-efficient double-pane windows. Additional highlights include a shared laundry room (washer 2023, dryer 2020), separate storage sheds for each unit, exterior security lighting, a screened front porch, and a large fenced backyard. Currently generating $3,350 in gross monthly income with month-to-month leases, this property offers immediate income potential with flexibility. Ideally located within walking distance to local favorites like Winnie's Tavern, live music at Dram Tree Tavern, and outdoor recreation at Greenfield Lake Park & Gardens. Enjoy nearby dining and shopping in the South Front District, all just minutes from downtown Wilmington. Perfect for those looking to live in one unit while renting the other, or for investors seeking a dual-income property in a vibrant historic setting.
