    Welcome to 2226 Washington Street, nestled in the charming and historic neighborhood of Sunset Park! This beautifully updated, turn-key home is ready for its next owner to enjoy a long list of impressive recent upgrades. The kitchen was fully remodeled and now features solid wood, soft-close cabinetry with ample drawer space, stunning red-oak hardwood countertops, ceiling height tile backsplash, brand new appliances, and an oversized apron sink—perfect for the home chef! The spacious bathroom has been completely renovated as well, showcasing a large walk-in tile shower. Original hardwood floors have been refinished throughout the home, adding warmth and charm. The primary bedroom includes a generous walk-in closet, offering both comfort and functionality. In 2023, a full exterior renovation was completed, including new energy efficient windows, upgraded insulation, Hardie siding, new exterior doors, and a welcoming Trex front porch. Situated on a corner lot, the home offers a fully fenced backyard ideal for pets, plus a brand new storage shed for added convenience. Just minutes from downtown Wilmington, the Cargo District, and some of the city's top amenities, this home offers the perfect blend of character, comfort, and location.
