Welcome to 705 Concord Ave, Wilmington! This stunning 1923 home exudes charm and character, with thoughtful renovations completed in 2005-06 using high-quality contractors and materials—this is not a flip. Boasting 4 spacious bedrooms, 1.5 updated baths, and 1,825 sq ft of living space, the home seamlessly blends classic design with modern comforts. The home features a private driveway, gleaming oak hardwood floors, elegant crown molding, and high ceilings that enhance the sense of space and openness. Relax on the enclosed porch, complete with a ceiling fan and central air, perfect for enjoying all seasons. The well-appointed kitchen shines with 40" maple cabinets, Corian countertops, a breakfast bar, and under-cabinet lighting for a warm ambiance. For added convenience, the main-floor laundry room is just off the kitchen, as is a tastefully updated powder room. Additional highlights include modern double-paned windows throughout (even in the basement), and a durable, energy-efficient white TPO membrane on the main roof, installed in 2022 by Wertz with a 20-year warranty. Upstairs, the stunning pine floors add a touch of warmth and character. The home is equipped with Lennox forced hot air heating, central air conditioning, and a gas water heater to ensure year-round comfort. Enlarged closets in each bedroom, a lighted coat closet tucked beneath the staircase between the living and dining rooms, and 10-inch baseboards showcase the attention to detail. The fenced yard, driveway, and convenient Bilco door for basement access enhance the home's functionality. Situated near Trolley Square and Downtown Wilmington, you'll enjoy easy access to vibrant amenities such as Scout Café (just a block away), Wilmington Brew Works, Metro Pizza, and a host of cultural attractions including The Grand Opera House, The Queen, Delaware Theater, YMCA, Wilmington Library, Delaware Art Museum, and The Delaware Contemporary. Eclectic shopping, coffee shops, and fine dining establishments like Le Cavalier and Harry's Seafood Grill are all nearby. The home is ideally located just 20 minutes from the Philly Airport and 25 miles from Philadelphia. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby Brandywine Park and Zoo, BW Dog Park, and two ballparks. The scenic Brandywine Creek Park connects to the Greenway Trails, Alapocas Run State Park, and Woodlawn Land Preserve, offering opportunities for hiking, biking, birdwatching, rock climbing, canoeing, kayaking, and picnicking. Special Financing Opportunity: Grant funds are available, providing 3% towards your down payment and $7,500 towards your closing costs with no repayment required—open to more than just first-time buyers, with an income limit of approximately $156,000.
