Nestled on nearly 1.5 Acres in North Wilmington, this exceptional home offers quality construction and plenty of space on a private lot backing to woods and Shellpot Creek. Distinguished details are carried throughout, with lovely millwork and moldings you won't find in newer homes. Gleaming hardwood floors welcome you into the entry hall which gives access to the spacious DR, and to the right, the Living Room w/wood burning FP and built-in bookcases, which then leads out to the rear porch and brick patio. From here take in the tranquil back yard and woods with a sea of daffodils in season and flowering shrubs. To the left of the entry way you'll find the laundry room, powder room and updated, eat-in kitchen with adjacent family room ~ a warm and homey place to entertain and relax as a family. The 2 car garage is at the rear of the house off the kitchen. Upstairs offers 4 nice size bedrooms including the master with full bath, a 2nd full bath plus a comfortable office with a double window looking out over the private grounds ~ all with beautiful hardwood floors and plenty of closet space. A pull down set of stairs allows access to the attic storage. The sprawling back yard offers endless possibilities. The current owners have lived here for nearly 50 years, raised their family here, and loved living here. This is now your opportunity to make memories, and transform it into your "forever" family home. This kind of well built, old world charm doesn't become available often. Hardwood floors under LR carpet. Comfortable and convenient!… More Less
