1706 Chestnut ST Wilmington, NC 28405

This charming craftsman-style home boasts both historical workmanship and modern-day convenience in Carolina Heights, one of Wilmington's most desirable neighborhoods. The historical character surrounds you when you step onto the expansive front porch and it follows around every corner as you notice the home's hand-sculpted millwork, grand fireplaces, high ceilings, and artisanal detailing. On the main level you will find the charm of a hundred-year-old home in beautiful formal living and dining rooms that feature immense leaded glass windows, custom pocket doors, and decorative wooden ceiling beams. As you walk further into the home, its floor plan opens up to reveal an updated kitchen and a vast sunroom/family room that overlooks a stunningly landscaped, fully fenced-in backyard. The first floor also includes a large bedroom that could be used as a downstairs master with a full bathroom, as well as a handsome study or home office, and laundry room. Just past a pair of French doors, the gorgeous sweeping staircase leads upstairs to three spacious bedrooms and an updated full bathroom. It features closets galore, which is rare for homes built circa 1912! This house marries all the beauty and character from long ago to a modern open floor plan, giving its owners the best of both worlds. Its close proximity to downtown and short distance to wonderful Wrightsville Beach make this house a must see!
