    This charming bungalow cottage home was built in 1926 and is located in the desirable neighborhood of Carolina Place in Downtown Wilmington on Wrightsville Avenue. This location allows you to stay in a historic residential neighborhood with its sidewalks, front porches and mix of older and thoughtfully restored homes.

    Within walking distance is the White Front Breakfast House, Port City Java, Burnt Mill Creek Tavern, Southern Breakfast Cafe, and a lush neighborhood park. You are approximately one mile (a $5 or so Uber ride) from Front and Market Streets and the Cape Fear River where downtown Wilmington restaurants and shopping awaits AND only 7 miles away (approx. 12 minutes) from beautiful Wrightsville Beach.

    Interesting tidbit.....located just two doors down is the home featured on the TV show One Tree Hill where the character played by Chad Michael Murray lived!!

    This 2 bedroom - 2 full bath home features original hardwood floors throughout, 9-foot ceilings with ceiling fans in both bedrooms and living room as well as convenient off-street parking for up to two cars....which is VERY rare for the Downtown area. The front porch with Southern swing, ceiling fan and rocking chair is a perfect spot for reading a book or chatting with neighbors. The back porch provides a more intimate spot for morning coffee or an evening cocktail. The master bedroom features a queen bed with an en-suite bathroom containing a claw foot tub/shower and a generous walk-in closet. The second bedroom affords a beautiful antique full-sized bed. There is no need to bring or rent linens or towels because plush bath towels and 300-count cotton sheets are provided.

    This home is a perfect blend of antiques and modern eclecticism. The spacious living room has ample seating for all guests with an HD Smart TV with local antenna, Roku and free Wi-Fi. The dining room has a stunning chandelier, a fancy bar cart, and comfortable seating for 4. If you wish, feel free to use the table linens in the tiger-oak buffet to prepare for that special meal. The kitchen includes a dishwasher, double-sided refrigerator with ice maker, Keurig coffee pot, toaster, microwave, and is stocked with items you will need should you wish to cook during your getaway. If needed, there is a HE full-size LG washer and dryer.

    Pets considered - We consider our pets as family and wouldn’t dream of traveling without them. This home was furnished with pets in mind from the fenced-in front yard that allows your fur-friend to run and play to the minimal carpeting throughout the home, down to the plush leather living room furnishings. There is even a portable pet gate available for your use if needed. Note: Please provide a sheet or blanket if your pet will cuddle up with you either on the leather sofa or on the bed.

    Whether you are visiting Wilmington for beaching, golfing, shopping, antiquing, exploring, fishing, biking or just to get away from the daily grind....this home is the perfect location for your Wilmington stay! We hope you will love our home as much as we do!!!!!!

    About Dena Claire Daniels

    I have lived in North Carolina all of my life (minus a short few years in Atlanta). Restoring homes has always been my passion. This home has my heart and I look forward to retiring here from Raleigh, NC in the very near future!

    Dena Claire Daniels purchased this Bungalow in 2015

    Why Dena Claire Daniels chose Wilmington

    In addition to the idyllic neighborhood, the historic home from 1926 spoke to me when I first walked in the front door. It was the perfect size; the perfect craftsman - cottage - bungalow look. Most important of all...I could restore it back to its glory. It had not been stripped to its studs. It still retained the original windows, floors, interior French doors and wood doors and hardware. When I walked outside onto the porch, there were neighbors across the street introducing themselves to me.....I knew this was the place!!! My home is still a work in progress; so, please excuse its quirks and imperfections...Thank you for your love of older homes!!

    What makes this Bungalow unique

    Pet Friendly! Two Full Bedrooms....Two FULL Baths (one with a claw foot bathtub and rain shower) as well as Parking for TWO vehicles located in the back right at the back door! No fighting for street parking like many of the neighbors! Sheets and towels are provided and included in the rate (They is not an additional charge as many other homes). 2 porches, white picket fence and beautiful landscaping add more character to the home! Arrive as late as you wish on check-in day due to an electronic lock system on the back door. No one needs to be present! Put your mind at ease that you will have your very own unique door lock and security alarm code that is unable to be used again after your check-out time!!! DOGGIES ARE WELCOME!!!! refer to specifics in the Rates section of the website.
