A laundry/mudroom conveniently opens to a spacious back deck, perfect for entertaining, and overlooks a rare double-lot backyard—offering endless potential for gardening, play, or future expansion. Upstairs, you'll find three more generously sized bedrooms. The primary suite includes a charming wraparound hallway with ample closet space, and a stunning ensuite bath complete with a clawfoot tub, new double vanity, and vintage touches. Secondary bedrooms offer closets and flexible layouts. Located just steps from Downtown Wilmington's vibrant restaurants, breweries, music venues, museums, Cargo District, Castle Street, and the scenic Riverwalk, this home also offers quick access to the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge—and it's only a short drive to the area's renowned beaches.
