This striking historic home is where we live and yours to savor. Your part is the entire first floor of this converted Duplex. You have your own entrance and plenty of privacy so relax and find out why we appreciate it! Convenient parking and no need for an Uber or your car. This unique and cheerful space is ideal for travelers looking for a place that has its own character and appeal. Our space is also kid-friendly and great for families.
This is the first floor of an striking historic downtown home. Many homes in this neighborhood are historic housed converted to Duplexes. We appreciate walking around and checking out the other homes! We live upstairs and you'll have the whole first floor to yourself. We usually come and go by the back door so, the front and your back door are used solely entirely by you.
We fell in adore with this home because of the charming wood floors, woodwork, high ceilings, and turn-of-the-century charm. A outfitted kitchen and dining room table for meals, front and back decks, simple street parking, a huge living room with two couches, comfortable beds, and the bathroom has a cute clawfoot bathtub. You have the entire place to yourself. Savor your morning cup of coffee on the porch swing or walk to Bespoke coffee and relaxing downtown Wilmington for breakfast.
It's a great old home and it's a wood home. You're going to hear us walking around and sometimes even being a little loud with a friend or two (at reasonable hours of course). You'll hear us get up in the morning and get our son ready for school at 6:30am. If you're a really light sleeper or hate mornings, you might not want to book this place. Although we have a no partying rule, we understand that you're on vacation and you may make some noise or come home late after walking downtown. It's ok, just appreciate yourself. If you're too noisy, we'll just message you and ask you too tone it down. You can do the same for us. Just be happy!
This great old home has a front and back porch on both the first and second floor! We enjoy calming on the second floor porches so the first floor is mostly yours to use anytime. Lots of our guests adore swinging on the porch swing and appreciating the mornings. We appreciate that they adore it!
Please do not use the driveway. It's just a tiny driveway between two homes and barely fits a car. We park in the back and there are not any additional spaces there. However, there is a ton of complimentary street parking and, unless there is a major festival, you will never have any trouble finding a spot right in front of the home. Note: The neighbor in the green and yellow home next door is really sensitive about people parking in front of his home. Please help us keep the neighborhood happy and park anywhere but in front of the green and yellow neighbors home.
We are here if you need us, invisible if you don't. You can check in anytime with the keypad lock and start relaxing! We'll likely text you during your stay to let you know we are available. If I don't hear from you, we will assume you're happy!
We chose this home because of its magnificant historic charm and its location is the best. It's a neighborhood right in downtown. All the homes are nice and so is this one. You're going to appreciate it! Just a short walk to downtown, eateries, bars, entertainment, the riverfront, museums, historic tours.
Spectacular downtown Wilmington. See tons of elegant homes as you walk around the neighborhood the scenery is extraordinary.
You can walk pretty much everywhere, this is a prime location.
We are 15 mins. to the beaches and a 5 min walk to the river walk. We're on Princess street so a strait walk, 4 blocks will get you directly in the center of Downtown Wilmington.
We have a self check in process that is painless and convenient. We provide a code on your arrival date for the keypad on the door as well as your private entrance.
This is an old home and for some, that's part of the charm. We have proudly refreshed and decorated it, and kept its original fixtures when possible. If you like old homes, wood floors, cool lights and light switches, this is your jam. If you see older homes as ugly and cumbersome, this is not your place- please feel complimentary to check out some of our more modern listings.
You will find some water and snacks when you arrive.
The TV is a Roku TV. You can log into your favorite subscriptions and enjoy your favorites channels from home.
