Downtown Bliss

This charming 1800’s Victorian duplex used to be our worst place. That is, until it underwent an extensive renovation that was completed in summer of 2023. It retains its historic charm with original wooden doors, a bedroom fireplace (now decorative only), and its location on a quiet cobblestone street. However, it was thoughtfully modernized with new plumbing, electric, flooring, appliances, and light fixtures and is decorated in a timeless style with a nod to its heritage but in no way retro. This downstairs 2 bedroom 2 bath duplex has lots of historic charm. You enter the duplex from the back of the house into the cozy living room that has comfortable seating and a large smart TV. The primary suite has a queen bed with hybrid mattress, TV, decorative original fireplace, and spacious private bathroom with a tile shower. The bright and airy second bedroom is in the front of the house and has a queen bed with hybrid mattress and TV. The second bathroom is located under the staircase but is surprisingly roomy and has a tiled shower.

The large eat-in kitchen with seating for 4 is outfitted with all new appliances, including a gas stove, dish washer, and washer/dryer laundry center. It includes cookware, dishes, and kitchen basics and includes a coffee bar, bottled water, and some snacks.

The back porch has 4 rocking chairs and overlooks the backyard garden and is a perfect place to relax.

This duplex is just a stone’s throw to downtown Wilmington, so you can walk to downtown and enjoy the historic north end of downtown. Off street parking is included (small and mid sized cars only as the driveway is narrow) and there is always plenty of street parking for larger vehicles, vehicles pulling a trailer, or additional vehicles. Located a short pleasant walk to the riverwalk, restaurants, breweries, museums, entertainment, and more. Just a 30 minute drive to the beaches.

Checkout: Checkout is 11am, but we can offer late checkout as availability allows. 12pm checkout is $20, and 1pm checkout is $30. Please contact us first and if we can accommodate your late checkout, we will be happy to.

5 ⭐️ Accomodations! Exceptional Attention to detail. Welcome folder with snacks. Each bathroom has soaps, shampoo conditioner, lotion and many towels. The bedrooms each have lovely white linens with nightstands on each side of the bed that have changing stations. Large flat screen in each bedroom. Amazing two bedroom two bath that we look forward to staying in again.

UNCW Visit

We were in town to visit my niece at UNCW. The property was very nice and clean, and true to the pictures. I will mention that the second bathroom isn't exactly "roomy" although it is nice. The location is perfect for walking downtown and through the Historic District, and is close to many great restaurants, bars and shops. We like to bring food and cook when staying away from home, and this property had cookware, but it would be nice if it had some more condiments available (salt & pepper would be great!!). My only complaint is that you can hear everything that is going on in the unit upstairs, from people walking back and forth to conversations and the TV. But with that being said, my niece is only a freshman at UNCW so we would definitely stay at this property again if it is available!!
