Overview
Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in North Wilmington and just a short walk to Bonsall Park, this home offers the perfect blend of privacy and convenience. Thoughtfully renovated throughout, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath colonial with a sunroom, finished basement and 2-car attached garage delivers space, style, and comfort at every turn. The spacious foyer with a large coat closet flows seamlessly into the main living areas. The light-filled living room features crown molding and a wood-burning fireplace with a classic mantel, while French doors lead to a sunroom with heated tile floors and a slider to the wood deck and brick patio—perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The formal dining room overlooks the private backyard and is accented with chair rail and crown molding. The renovated eat-in kitchen shines with new stainless-steel appliances, granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, recessed lighting, tile flooring, white cabinetry, and a coffee bar with bonus storage. A den/family room with a second wood-burning fireplace and built-ins offers flexible space for a home office, playroom, or lounge. A fully renovated powder room with modern, neutral finishes completes the main level. Upstairs are four generously sized bedrooms.
