Description

Welcome to this thoughtfully reimagined 1945 brick Tudor Revival in the heart of Sunset Park, one of Wilmington's most charming and walkable neighborhoods. Blending classic architectural character with refined modern farmhouse influences, this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers timeless style, curated updates, and an exceptional location just moments from Greenfield Lake, Winnie's Tavern, local restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and downtown Wilmington. Fully renovated in 2020, the home preserves its historic charm while introducing elevated modern comforts, including updated windows, designer bathrooms, a renovated kitchen, updated appliances, a screened porch, fresh interior and exterior paint, and hardwood floors and tile throughout. A brand-new roof installed in 20 25 adds lasting value and peace of mind. Inside, warm original character pairs seamlessly with clean-lined finishes and inviting living spaces. The main level features a welcoming living room anchored by a fireplace, a dedicated dining room, an updated kitchen with modern farmhouse styling, a spacious bedroom, and a full bath. An additional flex space offers versatility for a home office, reading room, playroom, or secondary living area. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a beautifully updated full bath. The generous primary bedroom opens through sliding glass doors to a private balcony overlooking the backyard -- a peaceful retreat for morning coffee or quiet evenings. Outside, the fenced backyard offers ample space to entertain, garden, or relax beneath mature landscaping. A private driveway, additional storage, and a detached workshop/studio create endless possibilities for creative pursuits, a home gym, or a remote work space. Rarely does a home so seamlessly combine historic Tudor Revival architecture, modern farmhouse design, and a prime Sunset Park location. This is a unique opportunity to own a fully updated home in one of Wilmington's most desirable historic neighborhoods.
