Description
Welcome to the Dosher-Brown House, a historic gem dating back to 1916 and proudly adorned with a plaque from the Historic Wilmington Foundation.
This lovingly maintained craftsman-style cottage is just a quick jaunt from some of Wilmington's best attractions like the Castle Street Arts District, and minutes from downtown's shops, riverwalk, and dining options. 5th Avenue is a beautiful part of downtown, and improvements are on the way. The City of Wilmington has committed to improvements to 5th Avenue, including asphalt resurfacing, sidewalk and curb repairs, ADA compliant sidewalk ramps, dedicated bike lanes, a full replacement of water and sewer utilities, and replacements of trees. The City expects these improvements to be completed by the end of 2025.
As you approach the house, you'll find the wide, inviting porch, great for kicking back and relaxing on summer days. There are many great details on the inside, including beautifully refinished wood floors, a decorative fireplace mantle, and historic doors and windows which add so much character to the house. The rooms are large with high ceilings, which contributes to a sense of openness in the space.
The spacious backyard is fully fenced, with a large shed and an additional outside storage room. The shared driveway and ample backyard room provides an option for off-street parking; something highly sought downtown.
Experience the quintessential downtown lifestyle in this delightful home. Schedule your private showing and make it yours!
