Investors/flippers lots of remodeling possibilities with a large footprint on the main level, 3 finished levels, convert walk-up attic to primary suite, convert small bedroom on 2nd floor to another full bath/laundry. Main level has 3 large interior rooms with a 3 season enclosed porch (on right side) and a screen porch (on the front). Add heat pumps for cooling/heating on 2nd/3rd floors. Connected to town sewer and has natural gas. Deck = 12x8, Enclosed finished porch = 18x7, Screen front porch = 33x6. Fenced yard. Imagine sitting on the front porch with beautiful views of Silver Lake! Walking distance to beach and playground. Close to shopping, dining and all the things we love in Wilmington! Historians believe this may have been a dance hall in the early 20's. Some banks may not finance, speak to your lender 1st before submitting an offer!
