Tucked into Wilmington's vibrant midtown area, this classic bungalow offers a location that is hard to beat. A deep front porch welcomes you in, while a standing seam metal roof installed in 2023 adds both durability and style. Inside, the home features two bedrooms, one bath, a galley kitchen, and an additional 168-square-foot rear space that offers flexible room for storage, hobbies, or future possibilities (not included in the heated and cooled square footage). The backyard is anchored by a beautiful mature live oak and includes a custom shed built in 2021 along with a charming picket fence, creating a welcoming outdoor space to relax, garden, or entertain. Located just minutes from UNCW and downtown Wilmington, the property is also within walking and biking distance to many of central Wilmington's favorite restaurants, shops, and neighborhood gathering spots. High speed Fiber internet is available on the street. The home has a strong long-term rental history and most recently rented for $2,200 per month. Whether you are a first-time homebuyer looking for a well-located property, an investor seeking to continue its proven long-term rental performance, or exploring the potential for a short-term rental, this home offers excellent flexibility and opportunity. Recent improvements include an encapsulated crawlspace (2021), new kitchen flooring (2020), window reglazing and repairs (2023), attic insulation and a new storm door (2019). A termite bond is also in place for added protection.
