Welcome home to the charming historic Woodlawn neighborhood located directly across the street from Sunset Park, with sidewalks and fantastic walkability to Legion Stadium, the city pool, and Greenfield Lake! Just a hop, skip and a jump from downtown Wilmington and all the shopping, restaurants and night life it has to offer. Less than ten miles to Wrightsville Beach and less than 20 minutes to Carolina Beach. This adorable cottage was built in 1944 and was lovingly restored in 2019. The first thing you will notice is how high it sits above the street level for your peace of mind. The second thing you will notice is the beautiful hardiplank siding and freshly painted trim. Come inside to see a great compact floor plan with open kitchen---a rarity in this age home. Original hardwood floors in good shape. This home has been well-maintained. HVAC serviced regularly and termite bond in place. Brand new counter depth refrigerator, dishwasher, and gas stove. Washer and Dryer combo. Updates in 2019 included the new windows, new siding, new moisture barrier in crawl space. Updated electric panel. Natural gas furnace and water heater. 2 bedrooms with bath and updated walk- in-shower. Out back you have tons of room and quite a bit of privacy in the back yard. Secondary structure can be added according to the city of Wilmington. Ask listing agent for details.
This neighborhood offers awesome amenities to the side with a public pool and to the rear with access to Greenfield Lake Park. The park offers Canoe/Paddleboat rental, Picnic Shelter, 4.5 mile bike/walking trail, Boat ramp, fishing dock, Amphitheater Skatepark, Tennis Court, and playground! And during the spring the Azaleas blooming are absolutely stunning!
