Phenomenal curb appeal and a showstopping wooded lot set the stage for this spacious and well-maintained Northminster home. Behind its classic colonial exterior is a distinctive wide center-hall split floor plan arranged across four levels, offering generously sized rooms, hardwood floors, abundant natural light and multiple living areas. A bright sunroom overlooks the beautiful backyard, where mature trees, a large patio with gas-plumbed grill and firepit, and a picturesque creek create an exceptionally private and peaceful setting. Additional highlights include a side-entry two-car garage and whole-house generator. Beautifully situated in North Wilmington with a rare combination of space, privacy and practical upgrades, this is one you’ll want to see in person.
