Mid-Century Charm in Sunset Park National Register Historic District Welcome home to this darling 1955 mid-century gem nestled in the heart of Sunset Park, a beloved historic district recently featured on the Azalea Festival Home Tour and located just minutes from downtown Wilmington. Brimming with character, this three-bedroom home offers timeless appeal both inside and out.The showstopper? A centuries-old Southern live oak graces the front yard, its majestic canopy offering shade and serenity. This iconic tree is currently under review by the Wilmington Tree Association as a Tree of Distinction and was recently professionally pruned and deadwooded by a licensed arborist. A lush border of azaleas--four varieties in total--frames the home with seasonal blooms, creating a stunning, secluded feel. (It gets better--there's even a zoned irrigation system!) Step inside to find original wood floors throughout, spacious closets in each of the three bedrooms, and a beautifully renovated bathroom (2023) featuring a glass walk-in shower and vintage-inspired tilework. The bright, retro kitchen is brimming with charm, including the original wall stove--still works! French doors lead to the deck, allowing natural light to pour in. Out back, a wooden deck transitions to your own private oasis: mature trees, flowering shrubs, and a stone-ringed fire pit offer the perfect setting for relaxation or entertaining.Additional features include a carport, ample driveway parking, laundry/utility room with a wet sink, backyard shed, and fence (wire).Whether you're drawn in by the storybook landscaping, the vintage details, or the quiet charm of Sunset Park, this home is one you won't want to miss!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
