Do not miss this beautiful duplex in the heart of Wilmington's stunning historic district. This lovely home has been divided into two two bedroom, one bath units, each with their own private back deck and access to the spacious backyard, but it could easily be converted back into a stately single home. With metal roof, high ceilings, large windows, great light, updated kitchens and bathrooms, it is easy walking distance to all that downtown has to offer, yet tucked away on a quiet sleepy street among the other historic beauties. Here is your chance to grab it up before someone else does.
The upstairs unit is currently rented for $1650/month and the downstairs unit was rented until recently. This can also be a smart investment property, good for solid long term rentals or quicker turn around.
