The kitchen and dining area stretch from the front of the home to the back, offering a generous, welcoming space where meals are shared and memories are made. Every corner feels thoughtfully designed for comfort and connection. Step outdoors and discover a backyard that feels more like a hidden garden retreat--lush, private, and full of possibility. Enjoy evenings on the screened-in porch with its soaring ceilings, host friends on the brick patio, rinse off after a beach day in the outdoor shower, or tend to your garden in this serene setting. A large storage shed and expansive side yard add both charm and practicality. Upstairs, two guest bedrooms accompany a beautifully appointed primary suite that feels like a peaceful escape. The renovated bath features a walk-in shower, soaking tub, dual vanities, and both a walk-in and cedar closet, blending everyday luxury with classic appeal. With two off-street parking spaces and the rare gift of a double lot, this property offers space, privacy, and a sense of retreat, all within one of Wilmington's most cherished neighborhoods. This is more than a home, it's a lifestyle rooted in grace, comfort, and the enduring beauty of Southern living.
