About this home

Just steps from Greenfield Lake and a few blocks from the Cargo District, this Dawson-Greenfield home was built in 1901 and rebuilt nearly top to bottom. The roof, HVAC, ductwork, plumbing, water heater, windows and doors have all been replaced, so the next owner starts fresh where it counts. The single-level layout flows from the living area into a kitchen built around a custom island, with new cabinetry, countertops, stainless appliances and lighting. Commercial-grade SPC flooring runs throughout. There are three bedrooms and two full baths, plus a walk-in closet and walk-in shower, and the washer and dryer convey. A 9-foot slider opens to a brand-new deck and a private, fenced backyard. According to the City of Wilmington Planning Department, the rear yard may accommodate an accessory dwelling unit, which opens the door to a guest suite, studio, home office or rental income. With no HOA, the home is also well positioned for short-term rental use under Wilmington's current STR permitting (buyer to verify). A ramped entry provides accessible access. Life here centers on the lake's trails, paddling and amphitheater concerts, with downtown and the riverfront only minutes away.
