About this property
Some homes just have good bones. This 1930 Craftsman in Carolina Place West has them -- plus nearly a century of stories to go with them. Tucked into one of Wilmington's most beloved historic neighborhoods, this classic shotgun-style cottage offers the kind of downtown, connected lifestyle people move here for. You're steps from the Cargo District and Soda Pop District, minutes from the breweries, restaurants, and boutiques of the historic downtown riverfront and Riverwalk, and surrounded by the front-porch, neighbors-wave-hello charm that makes Carolina Place West special. It is the first residential neighborhood in Wilmington -- and still one of its most sought-after. The location is hard to beat: about 15 minutes to the sand at Wrightsville Beach, roughly 10 minutes to ILM airport, and an easy drive to UNCW and downtown. Inside, original heart pine floors stretch through the main living area, while recessed lighting and an updated kitchen bring a fresh, livable feel to its timeless character. At roughly 1,281 square feet, three bedrooms and a full bath flow together in that easy shotgun layout, and the tiled bathroom adds everyday function. Most appliances have been replaced, the HVAC in 2024, and the water heater was updated in 2021/2022. Best of all, this home has been truly cared for: a fully encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidifier, new concrete support pillars placed under an engineer's guidance, and professional inspections every single year, along with termite bond. Step outside to a fully fenced, private backyard -- expanded in 2024 with additional land added from the parcel behind, giving you even more room to garden, gather, or simply breathe. A storage shed and off-street parking complete the package. Historic charm, close to downtown amenities, and lovingly maintained. Homes like this don't come along often -- come see it before it's gone.
