This is a great two-bedroom apartment in one of Wilmington's best residential neighborhoods, and it's been genuinely well taken care of. The floors are original hardwood throughout, the kitchen has been fully updated with granite counters, white shaker cabinets, stainless appliances, and a gas range and the bathroom still has the original black-and-white basketweave tile floor and beadboard wainscoting that you just don't see in newer construction.
The layout is straightforward and functional. The primary bedroom is a real 11x16 big enough for a king bed and a dresser without feeling cramped. The second bedroom at roughly 10x12 works well as a guest room or home office. The living room and kitchen flow naturally off each other, and there's a rear exit from the kitchen out to the deck and yard.
Heat, gas, and water are all included. There's an in-unit stacked washer and dryer, so no shared laundry, no trips to the laundromat. Window A/C units are in place for summer. The building is a classic Victorian rowhouse with a covered front porch the kind of block where people actually sit outside.
Out back there's a 12x10 wood deck off the kitchen door and a private brick patio beyond it with mature tree cover and a fire pit. For a city apartment at this price, having that kind of outdoor space to yourself is genuinely hard to find.
