This beautiful historic property is a delight! Every room is bathed in sunlight with huge windows, many facing the large garden in the backyard with its old magnolia tree, and pathway leading down three steps to a lower formal garden, Camelia trees and Azaleas.
The house, built in 1921, is filled with original details including 10-foot ceilings, a wide brick path, the old call buttons used in the 1920's. There are 3 fireplaces (one functional) with large decorative mantels. The house has been included in the Wilmington Historic Foundation's Historic Home Tour and has also been used as a location for several TV series and commercials..
Our guests tell us that they love the chef’s kitchen with its stainless steel countertops and three sinks. Cooking for a large group is a pleasure in this well equipped and spacious kitchen. There is seating for 6 around the kitchen island for informal meals. The formal dining room seats 10-12 people comfortably for formal meals and holiday dinners.
The den is a comfortable retreat with a large sectional, built-in bookshelves with books to read and a 42-inch flat screen HDTV which allows you to wirelessly stream movies and TV shows and surf the Web. There is also game table seating six that opens for an impromptu poker night! The shelves are stocked with puzzles and all the best board games for a fun evening in with the family. There is an XBOX to keep the kids (and maybe even a few adults) entertained with wireless remote controls and several games. Bring your games along with you if you have a favorite!
The den also has a doggy door out to the fenced yard.
There is also a formal living room with ample seating that is perfect for entertaining guests or simply enjoying a cocktail by the fireplace on a winter night.

She has a separate entrance to the yard and is available only to the extent that you wish her to be. We offer keyless entry to the house so you don’t even have to meet anyone, but Katie is available for any emergencies during your stay. Need to find a flashlight? Katie can be there to show you where it is! But, if you desire privacy and the feeling that you are home without having to say "hello" to anyone, you can have that as well. We can also provide grocery shopping service prior to your stay and have the refrigerator stocked with all your favorite items and provide you with the receipt (hourly rate applies for shopping service). Welcome to the modern B&B in the historic neighborhood!
