4 Bedroom House in Bancroft Parkway, Wilmington

Ten Minutes from Downtown Wilmington. Three Bedrooms plus Basement
Our supremely comfortable Cape Cod Cottage sits on a corner lot of the elegant Bancroft Parkway, near to Wawaset Park. Featuring a screened-in porch, gourmet kitchen and private parking, this property is equally suitable for visiting corporate executives as it is for sightseeing, weddings or family gatherings .
Despite the peaceful location, Bancroft Cottage is very much ‘in town’ — within walking distance of Wilmington’s historic Little Italy neighborhood, Trolley Square, the Delaware Art Museum, and a 10-minute drive to the Amtrak station and downtown business district.
THE SPACE: The property features two large upstairs bedrooms with queen beds, televisions and space to unpack. In addition, there is a first-floor bedroom/office with a twin bed, and a finished basement with two twin-sized beds for overflow guests. Each bedroom features high-quality linens and mattresses. There’s even a “Secret Room” off one of the bedrooms with another bed for a youngster.
Each floor features an upgraded bathroom (including a walk-in shower on the first floor and basement) and guests are provided with ample fresh towels & washcloths for their stay.
The open-plan kitchen and dining area has been remodeled to an exceptionally high standard, with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a generously sized double oven and refrigerator & freezer. All the cookware you can imagine is provided to prepare home cooked meals. The dining room sits six and with the additional leaf provided can sit eight. The living room with its fireplace, 52” television & wine bar is a great place to relax, entertain and leads to the charming screened-in porch with its views onto the property’s mature trees and quiet Parkway.
The backyard features lush plantings, a patio with dining table & chairs and a gas BBQ in season.
Modern conveniences including dishwasher and laundry facilities are at your disposal.
As remote hosts we are available to you during your stay and are delighted to provide you with our favorite recommendations in and around Wilmington — including dining at the Colonial Inn, Wilmington Riverfront, the du Pont’s’ ‘Nemours Estate’, ‘Winterthur Museum,’ and the picturesque Brandywine River Valley made famous by the painter Andrew Wyeth.
Farther afield is historic Philadelphia with its international airport (30 min.) and Delaware’s famous Rehoboth Beach resort (2 hours).
GUEST ACCESS: A one-car garage and driveway which easily can accommodate two more cars is covered by a security camera plus additional street parking on the side of the home. There is a keyless entry system for the front and back entrances; we will provide you with a private code for your use during your stay. No hassles picking up and dropping off keys.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: We are committed to your satisfaction and welcome any feedback during your stay so that we can quickly meet any exceptional requirements or remedy any issues you might encounter. Our housekeeper will prepare the cottage for your stay with care and our maintenance team in Wilmington can be called upon should anything go awry. The Host reserves the right to decline prospective guests with no or poor reviews.

Summary: Quiet neighborhood. Side screened porch was the best room in the house. Fun to watch the dog walkers. Very close to attractions. Visited Winterthur, Longwood Gardens, Hagley Museum, Read House & Gardens. Odessa and New Castle are charming historic towns both with colonial taverns with good food. Columbus Inn is within walking distance with excellent food. House was well equipped. Beds were comfortable. Great place to stay. Highly recommend.

Summary: We we’re given a wrong code to unlock the door, so it definitely added unnecessary stress after a long day travel. I really loved the location, it’s a safe and beautiful neighborhood and very close to DuPont estates and gardens. The kitchen and bathroom are fully stocked we had more than what we needed. We are family of four, so we didn’t have to use the room in basement

Summary: The house was perfect for our group of six adult family members. Three full bathrooms was the primary selling point for selecting the house. The neighborhood and screen porch were great benefits. Early morning coffee on the screen porch made for a great start to the day.

Summary: We had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Rooster house. The secret kid’s room off the bedroom was PERFECT for our almost 2 year old. We all slept so well! House had everything we needed and such a fantastic neighborhood. Appreciated the price, location, amenities, and communication. A+

Summary: As a retired Air Force officer, I have lived away from my Delaware family for over 30 years. I’ve stayed w family during every one of my trips home until this trip. My kids are college age and we just needed our own space during the crazy Christmas festivities. This property was absolutely perfect. We had plenty of room, great sleep and the house was a super cozy place to retire after socializing all day. Will definitely rent this place again on one of my future trips home! Happy 2024!!

Summary: The house remains our favorite among the many VRBO rentals we have used over almost fifteen years. Even cooked an elaborate dinner for 9 in the well-stocked kitchen.
