This condo is located in arguably the nicest block of Old Wilmington's historic mansion district. The architecture around the neighborhood is stunning, with mansions and large single family homes. Treat yourself to downtown's finest.

If you walk out the front door onto Front Street, you'll see the glamorous Dudley Mansion from 1825, a stunning 10,000 sq ft estate that was home to North Carolina's first Governor. If you walk out the back door and down the quaint alley driveway to 2nd Street, you'll see block after block of gorgeous Victorian homes. If you love old houses and turn of the century architecture, be sure to make some time to take it in!

Just walk!!! You're very close to restaurants, shopping, nightlife, entertainment, the waterfront and riverwalk, museums, and ghost tours!

Located less than a half hour drive from either Carolina Beach or Wrightsville Beach.

Free parking behind the house: You have one (1) free parking spot! The alley entrance to the parking area is 9 feet wide. That means you cannot fit a large work van or a big work truck and trailers are not allowed.

If your truck is too big, or you need more than one space we can get you a parking pass.

    The property was exactly as advertised, close to downtown and the Riverwalk, ample parking, and plenty of space to relax when we were not out exploring. We had a great time exploring Wilmington and Wrightsville Beach. We will return and hope to stay here again!

    A beautiful, well-appointed quiet home just steps away from all of the downtown dining and entertainment options. We watched the sunset on the river from our second floor balcony. Perfect trip. Responsive and gracious hosts.

    The Wilmingtononian was the perfect location to downtown. We walked everywhere and enjoyed getting familiar with the area and local shops. Our stay was very cozy. The setup was perfect for what we needed. It did get a bit loud in the early mornings with city life but it was still a good stay.loudTherecomplimentary

    We had a blast. Went to a show and instead of spending the next day at the beach we found a great place to hang out. Julie went to school there in the 80’s and one of her friends lived in one of the back units. We had a great time! Thank you

    We live in the NC mountains and wanted a change of scenery for our 58th anniversary getaway. The Wilmingtonian On Front filled the bill to a Tee. The location is great, being a block and a half from the Riverwalk and all that it has to offer in the way of restaurants and bars. The apartment was very clean and well maintained. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for a three-night stay.

    It was in a very convenient and safe location. The place was spacious and well equipped. The management people were very responsive. It is a lot better than staying in a fancy hotel room. We enjoyed the evening stroll of the river walk area and commercial district.
