719 Princess St, Wilmington, NC 28401

This one-of-a-kind studio apartment was completely renovated from top to bottom, thoughtfully combining historic Wilmington character with imaginative, custom-designed features. The apartment opens into a small entry hall and features a beautiful decorative fireplace and mantel along with two sets of fully operational, nine-foot antique pocket doors that bring remarkable architectural character to the space. The centerpiece of the living area is its extraordinary custom tin ceiling. Approximately 1,000 individually sized holes were carefully drilled into the tin, with LED lights individually positioned and secured behind each opening. When illuminated at night, the entire ceiling transforms into a spectacular field of twinkling stars of different sizes, creating the feeling of being surrounded by outer space. The effect is truly magical and makes this apartment unlike anything else in North Carolina. A chandelier provides elegant traditional lighting when the star ceiling is not in use. The bathroom continues the custom design with a distinctive sink and swan faucet, an oversized rain shower and a ceiling finished in copper, creating an unexpected and luxurious architectural detail. The kitchen features white granite countertops repurposed from an old Wilmington mansion, preserving another piece of the city's history while giving it new life within the apartment. Additionally, custom light fixtures were added, all on light dimmers. From its antique nine-foot doors and historic materials to its remarkable star-filled ceiling, virtually every element of this studio was designed to create a space that is both historically distinctive and completely unexpected. A laundry room is available for your use upstairs in the main building entrance. No students. No smoking. Only cats allowed & negotiable with a non-refundable Pet Fee.
