Storybook charm on a gorgeous lot! Framed by mature trees and shrubs with perfect privacy in back, this easy living ranch is inherently inviting from its rocking chair front porch to its secluded patio overlooking a serene parklike backyard. Inside, cathedral ceilings and LVP floors highlight an open plan with wood burning fireplace, eat-in kitchen with generous cabinetry & countertops ideal for cooking & entertaining. The 2 baths are updated and all 3 bedrooms are spacious. Patio access is off Bedroom 3 which could also be a formal dining room as the kitchen access is right across the hallway (previous owner used it this way). There are ceiling fans, a new dishwasher, attached garage with storage shelves, newer HVAC and architectural shingled roof. Ideally located on a quiet cul de sac street just minutes from all Wilmington offers while still incurring only County taxes. Happiness awaits! (Note: Owner is licensed NC REALTOR)
