Fall in love with a piece of Wilmington history in this enchanting 1879 Queen Anne-style bungalow in Historic Downtown Wilmington. Soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, a classic clawfoot tub, and two decorative fireplaces capture the timeless charm of a bygone era. Two bedrooms and a private, whimsical turnkey loft offer flexible living space and proven short-term rental appeal, generating over $17,000 in Airbnb rental income in less than a year with 68 five-star reviews. Recent updates include new HVAC, exterior wood siding repairs, and fresh interior paint. Outside, a fully fenced backyard beneath a gorgeous tree canopy creates a peaceful private retreat. Just one block from the iconic One Tree Hill Bridge and minutes from the Brooklyn Arts District, Live Oak Bank Pavilion, and downtown's beloved restaurants, shops, and waterfront, this historic gem is a rare opportunity to own a home with a story to tell. Seller offering $10,000 in ''use as you choose'' buyer credit!
