512 Nun Street · Wilmington, NC 28401
Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined street in downtown Wilmington's coveted National Register Historic District, this exceptional 2023-built property seamlessly blends modern luxury with historic ambiance. Spanning 2,100 square feet, the main residence features three spacious bedrooms and two and a half beautifully appointed bathrooms designed for comfortable, low-maintenance living. An abundance of large windows floods the open-concept layout with brilliant natural light, illuminating the premium finishes that include gleaming wood flooring and sleek quartz countertops throughout the kitchen and living spaces. The professional, well-landscaped grounds provide beautiful curb appeal out front and a private, serene setting in the back, while the upscale furnishings within the main home remain entirely negotiable for a seamless transition. Beyond the main residence sits a rare architectural asset: a detached two-car garage topped with a fully independent, one-bedroom apartment. The current owners successfully utilize this legal accessory dwelling unit as a high-yield, income-producing short-term rental on VRBO, making it a lucrative opportunity for savvy buyers. To ensure a completely turn-key investment, all stylish furnishings, decor, and housewares in the apartment convey with the sale, allowing you to generate rental revenue on day one. Situated just a short stroll from the vibrant Wilmington Riverwalk, premier dining, local boutiques, and the Cargo District, this property offers the ultimate historic coastal lifestyle alongside the absolute peace of mind of newer construction.
