Description

WELCOME to 920 Wright Street! This solidly built brick townhome is perfect for a first-time homebuyer or an investor. It has been extensively updated and is ready for its new owner. With a new kitchen, new bathroom, refinished floors, fresh paint, and major systems all relatively recent, there's nothing to do but move in. Located on a quiet street in Browntown, an area that has received a lot of recent investments, the home is within walking distance of a park, the Wilmington Riverfront, and other new communities. As you approach the property, you'll notice a carefree brick exterior, covered front stairs that are well-maintained and offer you a glimpse into the quality of the home. Step inside onto a flagstone landing. The gleaming oak hardwood floors that run throughout the house on both levels will catch your eye. The obvious updates, including new paint, new blinds, and lighting upgrades, give the home an exciting feel of freshness. Updates extend to every detail in the entire home, including some upgraded electrical service, enhancing convenience and safety. The large combination living and dining room is equipped with energy-efficient double-pane windows, and a ceiling fan to ensure you can entertain guests, gather for meals with family, or simply relax in year-round comfort! The completely new kitchen is a highlight with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, new cabinets, new countertops, and a new faucet, complemented by a 4-burner gas stove oven and an efficient direct-to-outside cooking vent. A side alcove housing the refrigerator and giving convenient access to the backyard and the full bath rounds out the practical and stylish space! The full bathroom continues the theme of updates with continued vinyl plank flooring, a new vanity, a modular tub-shower combination, and updated lighting. The oak hardwood continues up the stairs and into the rear bedroom, which provides great storage above it. The front bedroom offers a built-in wall A/C unit, a double-wide closet with additional storage above, and a ceiling fan with an LED light package. Also, in the hallway on the bedroom level is a huge closet that is very deep and has a storage cubby above it as well. Outside in the rear yard, you'll find a nearly private space with a large concrete patio with room for a grill, perfect for some outdoor dining with friends. The Bilco door entry into the basement is a super convenient feature. There is also a fenced-off gardening area for your fruits, veggies, or flowers, and a new privacy fence at the back of the property. An alley runs from the front to the back of the house, adding accessibility and ease. Heading to the basement, you'll find a laundry area with a dryer and washer (as-is, which the seller is willing to upgrade with an acceptable offer). A dehumidifier is included for added convenience, and you'll appreciate the 100 AMP circuit breaker, double utility sink, and built-in storage. The modern natural gas boiler and newer gas hot water heater ensure efficient performance throughout the house. This home is ideally located within walking distance of the Wilmington Riverfront, train station, local stores, and the Blue Rocks stadium, offering an array of entertainment options. The nearby bus and rail transportation options make commuting a breeze. You'll also find easy access to Maryland Avenue and I-95. Enjoy a quick walk to Brown Park and the Wilmington Flea Market, and discover an array of local restaurants and shops nearby. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or an investor seeking rental income, this updated property is sure to impress. Estimated to rent between $1000 and $1200 per month. Note: A licensed Delaware real estate agent has equitable interest in this property.
