Description

Welcome to 3107 N Monroe Street in Wilmington — a property with tremendous potential and an excellent opportunity for buyers who want to build equity, create their own design, and transform a home to match their personal vision. Located in a well-established, highly desirable Wilmington neighborhood, this home offers strong bones, a generous lot, and the flexibility to reconfigure the layout to suit a wide range of needs. The owner began interior remodeling, opening several areas and removing walls to explore new layout possibilities. While the home was initially designed as a 3-bedroom property with a possible 4th bedroom in the attic, the interior has been opened up to create a more spacious feel. The current configuration does not limit future owners — the structure allows for restoration to its traditional layout or for the continuation of the open-concept direction the seller started. The seller is motivated and is offering the property empty and clean before settlement, giving buyers a clear and unobstructed canvas to complete renovations without the challenge of moving belongings or working around personal items. The second floor previously featured three bedrooms plus an attic room that could serve as a fourth. Today, the space is open and flexible, ready for someone to rebuild as they see fit. Whether you envision restoring multiple private bedrooms, creating a large primary suite, or designing a hybrid layout, the upstairs footprint gives you options that are increasingly rare in this part of Wilmington. On the main level, the traditional living and dining areas provide ample natural light and a solid foundation for redesign. These rooms allow you to create a modern, open kitchen-living-dining flow or preserve the charm of defined spaces. The basement adds even more value, with plenty of room for storage, tools, a workshop, or future finishing. With the right updates, it could be transformed into additional living space, recreation space, or a functional multi-purpose area. One of the most impressive highlights of this property is the oversized yard. The backyard is significantly larger than what is typically found in the city, offering room for outdoor entertaining, gardening, play areas, pets, or future extensions and additions. Spacious outdoor lots in Wilmington are becoming harder to find, making this feature a significant benefit for long-term homeowners and investors alike. 3107 N Monroe Street is ideal for anyone seeking a renovation project, investment opportunity, or a home that they can finish exactly to their taste. The structure, location, lot size, and flexibility create a rare combination. With some TLC and thoughtful improvements, this home has the potential to become a standout property in the neighborhood. The seller is motivated, and the home will be delivered empty and clean, ensuring a smooth transition for buyers and a welcoming start to your renovation plans. This is your chance to take a property with great bones and transform it into a personalized, long-term investment in one of Wilmington’s desirable communities.
