Welcome to the Westside of the City of Wilmington! Perched high above the valley below, this part of the City affords all the charm and character of yesteryear, mixed with modern renovations and updates taking place on nearly every block in the general vicinity of this home! Walking distance to places of worship, educational facilities, local shopping and night life on Union/Lincoln St., local highways, and a hop skip & jump to the Riverfront! Excessively large, three story, end of row is now ready for its next custodian. Enclosed front porch is the perfect escape after a long days work. Foyer welcomes and is flanked by formal LR with decorative brick hearth. Cozy den for reading and other busy work. Formal dining room to entertain guests and family members alike. Kitchen is on the rear, waiting for the chef in you to prepare meals. Rear door leads to back patio that is attached to your extra large grassy knoll that conveys with the property. Second level is host to three well scaled sleeping chambers with thoughtful storage elements. Rear bedroom has private balcony overlooking your extra lot. Full bathroom services this level with tub/shower combo. Third floor affords two more bedrooms with ample storage capacity. Updates include electric, hot water tank, drywall, trim, interior doors, paint, full bathroom renovation, roof work and more! If you're looking for an above average sized property in the City of Wilmington at an affordable price, this is going to be one of a few to investigate. The extra lot could be spun off as it has its own tax parcel, turned into off street parking, or possibly developed into new construction! Lots of opportunity for the aspiring home owner or investor, opportunity is knocking, make sure you answer!
