Description
Welcome to the Hilltop community, perched high above the City of Wilmington on the Westside! Exceptionally large Colonial/Victorian, brick twin is impressive in terms of size, character and charm! They just don't build homes like this any longer, harkening back to yesteryear when craftsmanship, choice materials and pride were standard within the construction space. Open and airy front porch welcomes you and provides a proper back drop to relax after a days work as the cooler months approach. Across the threshold you will be greeted with a traditional floor plan that affords spacious and expansive living arrangements. Turned stairs fully trimmed out leads to formal dining room off the kitchen. Kitchen is oversized and ready for your design prowess to create a stunning masterpiece. Side door leading to rear grassy knoll, back stairs leading to second level and half bath round out the main level. Second floor is host to four bedrooms and a full bath. Easily create two bedrooms with ensuite baths as well as laundry for this level, and probably enough space left over for an office/den type room. Third floor with two more bedrooms, another full bath, great room with kitchenette and private roof top area with a mesmerizing view of the City, and one that will probably expand further once leaves start to fall from trees. Third floor is essentially a built in apartment or au-pair suite. Basement with bar area and quarter bath complete with side entrance for additional living/entertaining space as well as overflow storage in the rear. Property is in need of complete renovation from top to bottom. Excellent opportunity to build it your way and move in, or to renovate and resell for end user. A contractor or employer looking to house laborers would be another possible use as this place is enormous. Possible rooming house just based off size alone, but would need to investigate zoning for non-conforming use variances that may be necessary. Home owner with extensive resources or investor looking for Winter project should take notice. Very rare opportunity, don't miss out!
