Here's an opportunity to own a piece of Wilmington's history, the Silas Buck House. This home has been meticulously cared for and has a huge lot of land, once a large vegetable garden. If you love history, you'll love the interior of this home with some vintage architecture still in tact, including wide pine floors! An addition by the current family gives some flexibilty with the floor plan-such as potential of in-law apartment. There's an atrium off the eat-in kitchen with room to sit and enjoy the private yard, or use a portion of it as a pantry. Walk-up, unfinished attic for future expansion or tons of storage space. This property also has a two-car detached garage with plenty of storage above.
