Property Description
Don't miss your opportunity to own a rare piece of Wilmington history! One of two historical Woodward houses built around 1745, this 4 story quarried granite dwelling has been modernized to some extent while it's elements of eighteenth century design and charm have still been well preserved. The front entrance brings you into a wide hallway lined with original wide-plank pine flooring & tall trim that leads you through the main level. To the left lies a large great room with fireplace surrounded by lots of tall windows, hardwood floors and original decorative woodwork. Towards the center is a large dining room with fireplace, a separate living room with striking exposed brick & beam areas, as well as a full bathroom with skylight. At the rear you will find an extra large kitchen with a center island, checkered tile flooring, lots of cabinets and a built-in refrigerator. Conveniently off the kitchen is a large pantry area with basement access and french doors leading to the private brick & slate patio and outdoor area. The 2nd floor features three oversized bedrooms each with their own fireplace, hardwood floors, & lots original wood molding. One of the rooms on this floor is the master suite which boasts a separate sitting room, rear deck, and a grand full bathroom with tub, standup shower, and wide vanity. The 3rd floor includes two more large bedrooms which both still behold many of the home's original features & materials. Another full stair case takes you to the fourth floor attic space which was used a library, but is large enough for two more finished rooms!! Built by Joseph Woodward, a Quaker rope maker, this Georgian style property is truly one of a kind and was added to the national register of historic places in 1979. Move fast to own this landmark treasure filled home before it's too late!
