Built in 1948, this traditional two-story home offers 1,869 sq/ft with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, including a convenient first-floor bedroom and three additional bedrooms upstairs along with a den/bonus space. Full of character and ready for its next chapter, this Wilmington classic is move-in ready while offering an excellent opportunity for personal touches and thoughtful updates over time. A spacious covered front porch welcomes you in, while the backyard provides a nice-sized, partially fenced setting with a rear patio and two storage sheds. Off-street parking is a valuable bonus for this downtown area, and the bricked street adds charm and character to the neighborhood. Mechanical updates include a gas pack and heat pumps showing model years of 2012 and 2016. The roof is estimated to have been installed around 2016. Location is a highlight, with close proximity to the Downtown Wilmington core, Greenfield Lake, the Soda Pop District, Cargo District and walkable access to Castle Street's shopping/antiquing -- lunch spots, and other locally owned businesses. New Hanover Medical Park and the Hospital (NHRMC) are within minutes. Area beaches and shopping at Mayfaire are also within approximately 20-25 minutes. Whether you're looking for a place to call home, an opportunity to personalize over time, or simply a quiet place to unwind in the semi-private backyard, it all starts here at 819 S 7th Street.
