Description

Excellent opportunity to own a solid, multi-family home in Ashley neighborhood, convenient to Newport, Wilmington and surrounding areas. Many features to like and improve in this house beginning with an enclosed front porch large enough to actually enjoy. Stepping through the front door you enter into a generous living room with original hardwoods which are sure to beam once refinished. There are two two bedrooms both off of the eat-in kitchen along with a full bathroom. A backdoor at the end of the galley kitchen is convenient to the driveway so trips to and from the car are a breeze.
Many years ago, the home was professionally sectioned off with stairs to the 2nd level sealed off from within the main home to create a separate apartment above that features its own separate stairway (steel) on the left exterior of the home. However, secure and easy access to the basement is available through a locked door on the main floor. A laundry area with utility sink is in the standing basement.
The climb to the 2nd floor apartment is worth the effort when you see this charming space beginning with a small foyer complete with a coat closet and full bathroom to the left and space for a desk or seating area to the right. Around the corner is your eat-in kitchen made bright and cheery with windows on two sides, gas cooking and plenty of cabinet space. The main bedroom is in back of the kitchen and also features plenty of light along with hardwood floors. Off to the left of the foyer is cozy living room with a closet and a single french door that leads to the sun porch offering endless possibilities such as a reading space, music room or just another place to relax in natural sun. The lot is level and provides reasonable privacy especially in the back. In the full basement you will find a newer hot water heater (gas), Washer & Dryer along with utility sink. With some renovations and creativity this multi-family dwelling can shine again with the potential for solid and consistent rental income.
Separate dwellings have their own meters + electric panels. Quite recent Central AC unit installed. The entire property is being sold fully AS-IS with no repairs or updates to be made by seller (estate). A brief drive through the neighborhood will show a considerable number of properties have been or are currently being renovated. Don't miss this rare opportunity to buy a diamond in the rough! Priced to sell.
