Forget cookie cutter flips and generic boxes. This is a rare piece of living Wilmington history, lovingly resurrected with authentic architectural salvage, hand blown wavy glass, and undeniable soul.
Steeped in history and thoughtfully restored, this turn of the century 1900 cottage offers a one of a kind blend of local story, architectural character, and modern comfort. Tucked in Wilmington's historic urban core, every inch of this residence has been lovingly resurrected with creative design and salvaged coastal North Carolina history.
As you come up to the home, you are greeted by a reclaimed historic front door with authentic hand blown wavy glass, originally sourced from a Water Street establishment. Inside, the living space centers around an exposed 1900 brick fireplace that was uncovered and restored during renovation, set alongside soft plaster wall finishes and custom touches inspired by classic Scandinavian interior styling. Salvaged French doors seamlessly connect the interior spaces, leading toward a truly unique bathroom designed with soaring raised ceilings, exposed historic timber rafters from local architectural salvage, glass block accent windows, and a custom console sink built from an antique Singer sewing machine base.
The home effortlessly balances its historic soul with everyday convenience, featuring high efficiency zoned climate control with a disguised mini split system, structural foundation enhancements, and updated electrical and plumbing components. Towards the back, an inviting and functional kitchen with freshly painted cabinetry opens directly onto an expansive rear deck, creating a seamless transition to outdoor dining, entertaining, and relaxing in the coastal air.
Perfectly located, the best of Wilmington is right around the corner. You are moments away from Castle Street with local and tourist favorites like Luna Caffe, Gravity Records, and Vintage Values, and only a few blocks to the vibrant Cargo District, Wilmington's riverfront, local dining, shops, and arts districts. This home offers a low maintenance, personality packed sanctuary where history and lifestyle meet in every detail.
