Property Description
This charming brick-and-stucco townhome captures the warm, inviting character of one of Wilmington's most distinctive early-20th-century neighborhoods. Designed in 1918 by landscape architect John Nolen and architects Ballinger & Perrot as a garden suburb for World War I shipyard workers, Union Park Gardens features curving tree-lined streets, green spaces, and classic attached homes that still feel neighborly and residential today—while remaining just minutes from downtown Wilmington, I-95, shopping, dining, and major employers. Step up the brick stairs beneath a classic green scalloped awning to a cheerful green front door and covered porch. Inside, the home offers comfortable, updated living spaces with neutral walls, textured ceilings, and attractive flooring that flows throughout. The living room is bright and welcoming, with space for seating, a media wall, and an open flow toward the dining area. The dining room features a large wooden table under a stylish chandelier, a statement wall clock, and windows that look out toward the backyard—perfect for everyday meals or entertaining. The kitchen is practical and well-appointed with dark wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a mosaic-tile backsplash, stainless-steel range, and ample storage, plus convenient access toward the rear of the home.
Upstairs you'll find comfortable bedrooms with hardwood floors. One features a classic black iron bed frame and natural light; another offers a more formal feel with an ornate white headboard, coordinating furnishings, and good closet space. The full bathroom has been refreshed with white subway tile, a decorative mosaic accent band, a clean vanity/sink area, toilet, and tub/shower combination.
The unfinished basement provides excellent storage, utility space, and potential for laundry or future finishing. Outside, enjoy a private fenced backyard with a concrete patio ready for outdoor dining (complete with table, chairs, umbrella, and grill), a grassy lawn, and a raised garden bed—ideal for relaxing or entertaining after a day in the city. Union Park Gardens is known for its strong sense of community, walkable streets, proximity to Bancroft Parkway green space, and convenient location near Little Italy, the riverfront, and major routes. Homes here blend historic charm with practical city living.
