Property Description
Brandywine River views are wonderful and just waiting for you! One of the few condos with a bump-out and this uniquely provides up-river views. This home is a charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo located in the heart of Wilmington, The home spans across two levels offering ample space and comfort. When you walk through the doors of Bancroft Mills, you are walking through a part of Wilmington’s history. The complex is a restoration of an 1831 cotton mill owned by Joseph Bancroft and operated as such for over 130 years. This home is designated as a national historic landmark. The 3rd floor unit (no one above you) is ready for immediate occupancy. You have to see the original and preserved exposed beams and gleaming hardwood. There is a large, open living room featuring a bump-out providing spectacular views of the Brandywine River, beautiful kitchen, 2 bedrooms and 2 baths (one on each floor). Parking is by easement right in the parking lot. Roof replaced in 2021. Even though the home does not need to be painted, the seller has generously offered a $2,000 paint credit to allow a new owner to paint to suit their taste. The seller is also in the process of repairing a minor hole in the bathroom ceiling and installing new entry closet doors. Close to cultural venues for the arts (Delaware Art Museum and Trolley Square). Also, walking/hiking trails abound in Rockford Park and along the Brandywine. Additionally, the Bancroft Pedestrian Bridge in Alapocas Run State Park is slated to re-open in 2025. Owners love the home, but job relocation requires a move.
