501 S 5th Avenue, Wilmington, NC, 28401

This Castle Street District home is a Diamond in the Rough! From the front porch you can see the famous Fire Station No. 2! It's a few minutes to restaurants, bars, coffee and a yoga studio. It's a renovation project in need of a new owner that will appreciate the 4 original wood fireplace mantels with hundred year old fireplace tiles and original pine hardwood floors. Renovations have been estimated to be at least $100,000, but after, you will have a historic home done exactly to your taste! The roof was replaced two years ago so you can go in and lovingly preserve its historical features. The pine floors appear to have only been carpeted and never varnished so they would need light sanding and ready for the varnish color you choose. It would be the only varnish they have seen in 100 years. The location is unbeatable. This neighborhood is so charming that several movies have been shot here. Such an opportunity! Call your realtor and general contractor today and make this your dream home!
