About the host
Hosted by Terry Espy
Hi there! I'm Terry, owner/president of MoMentum Companies, Inc. We are a residential and commercial brokerage as well as business brokerage. We do have an addiction to restoring and preserving historic properties in downtown Wilmington, as evidenced through our 3 short-term rentals. Our business is a family affair! My sister, Donna, and my sons, Drew and Kennan, are here for you 24/7. My son, Matthew, handles our website and marketing from Denver. Our office is located at 103 S. Front St. Please stop by and say "Hello!" We would love to meet you.
Why they chose this property
Having hosted in the Wilmington market for over 6 years, we listened to what our guests were requesting and made the move from our other properties in the very busy downtown to this house in Wilmington's first subdivision! Our penthouse on Front Street, The View on Front Street, is phenomenal and located in the middle of it all. Our Historic Firehouse Suite on 5th & Castle is busy most weekends with weddings and the film industry. This home is located in the quaint, walkable neighborhood of Carolina Place/Ardmore. Lots of artists call this area their home. You just might fall in love with the location as much as my sister, Donna, did! So much so that she lives 2 streets away.
What makes this property unique
Easy to get to anywhere downtown as this is located near 17th Street & Market Street. Completely renovated Sept/Oct 2022. Beaches are nearby, so you'll find an outdoor shower to rinse away the sand. The fenced-in backyard is perfect for your pup's poo-time! The front porch bed swing is calling you to come and relax...
