About 417 N 21st St

Welcome to this delightful bungalow nestled in a charming, tree-lined neighborhood in the heart of downtown Wilmington. Start your day with a cup of coffee on the breezy, screened front porch, then step inside to a spacious living room featuring gorgeous original hardwood floors that add warmth and character. The kitchen offers a generous eat-in area, perfect for casual meals or hosting friends. Two private bedrooms are tucked away alongside a full bath, while a versatile flex room just off the living area can easily serve as the third bedroom, home office, or creative space--tailored to suit your lifestyle. You'll love the oversized laundry and utility room, offering abundant storage and functionality. Out back, your private fenced-in yard awaits, complete with a second screened porch--ideal for relaxing, dining al fresco, or entertaining under the stars. AND... this home combines older charm with modern efficiency with solar panels to save energy and money. Last month's electric bill was only $16.00. All this just walking distance to the Cargo & Soda Pop Districts, and a beautiful park just across the street.
