Location: Wilmington, Southern Coast, Coastal, North Carolina, USA (Historic District) View Map
Accommodations: Townhome, 2 Bedrooms, 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 4)
This property is perfectly located on Front Street a few short blocks from the Historic District's restaurants and shops!
AS A FYI: ALL TAXES AND STANDARD CLEANING FEES ARE INCLUDED IN CURRENT PRICING
Fantastic townhome right on Front St. in the heart of the Historic District. The home is 2 stories with 2 bedrooms upstairs (each with a queen size bed and a private bath). There is another 1/2 bath downstairs. Big big plus...we have PARKING. Stroll 2 blocks past the mansions for dining, a drink, shopping or a stroll down the Cape Fear River Boardwalk.
Very well appointed Italianate townhome with flat screen, great furniture, 400 threadcount sheets and duvets, washer/dryer, the proverbial porch with swing (Bridge and River View), etc.
YOU SIMPLY COULD NOT ASK FOR A BETTER LOCATION.
Over the years, the unit was used by the Film Studio when films were in town, by business travelers, and by my wife and myself as a weekend getaway. A few years ago we decided it was time that downtown Wilmington had a vacation rental and we became the first short term rental in the Historic District.
All linens, towels, incidentals, coffeemaker and my wife says I should mention the hair dryer....everything is there
Here are a few quotes from our recent guests...

Why the Owner Chose Wilmington
We love the fact that you can walk to restaurants, theatre, galleries, shops and the local pubs.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhome
We enjoy having a cup of coffee while sitting on our front porch swing, saying "hey" to our neighbors. We wave at the horse carriage as it strolls past our home on its way to work or after a busy day. We are also just a 10-15 minute ride to the beaches.
Owner's Map of Wilmington
We moved from California in 2003. We wanted a coastal community similar to San Diego. We found the perfect spot. Sun, beaches, surf and a great historic downtown...we couldn't ask for more.
