Charming 1920 home completely renovated just a few years ago, offering the best of historic character and modern living in the heart of downtown Wilmington. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence sits on Brooks Alley, steps from the Brooklyn Arts District in a very private setting - no traffic and parking steps outside! New HVAC as of 2025 for piece of mind and it comes partially furnished.
The updates include a brand-new kitchen, refreshed living spaces, and contemporary finishes throughout while preserving the home's original 1920s appeal. The layout provides comfortable everyday living with three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms.
Enjoy a quiet alley setting with unbeatable walkability to Flytrap Brewing, Edward Teach, the Brooklyn Arts Center, galleries, restaurants, cafes, and the Saturday Social District. The Riverwalk, downtown dining and shops, Cape Fear Community College, and the Rail Trail are all nearby.
This is a rare opportunity to own a fully updated historic home in one of Wilmington's most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods. Ideal as a primary residence or investment in a high-demand area. This home comes partially furnished with few exemptions.
