Welcome to the charming Andrew Smith House, an Italianate style home adorned with intricate woodwork, trim, and history. After enjoying the peace and quiet of your massive front porch, upon entering through the beautiful double doors, you'll instantly feel the warmth of the wide plank hardwood floors running throughout the house with the sprawling 12ft floors offering space and light. To your left and right, sunlight pours into the office and front sitting area through the floor to ceiling windows , highlighting the floor to ceiling bookshelves and intricate trim throughout. As you continue through the back of the house, you'll notice the modernization of the home, updated in the 1990s, the owners brought the home into this century by expanding the small kitchen into a modern open concept Chef's dream, with a large center island and gas cooktop, breakfast nook surrounded by windows, and a dream pantry. PLUS, they also continued the updates to include a dedicated laundry room with storage area, connected to the kitchen by the loveliest sunroom which opens up to the dream rear yard and brick patio. The updates didn't end there, as the master bathroom was also expanded, opening up with two walk-through closets, and an oasis of windows pouring sunlight over a clawfoot soaker tub, a vanity with personal sink, and tile floors.

Located on one of the most prestigious blocks in downtown Wilmington, chances to own one of these grand homes doesn't come around often. As you tour the home you might encounter the horse and carriage tour talking about your new home, or escape to the water by merely walking across the street with the Cape Fear River Walk! A unique opportunity also exists for investors, as the home comes with the land use code of an apartment. Square footage may change and will be updated when verified.
