Historic Downtown Homes and Real Estate for Sale 

Wilmington NC was incorporated in 1740 and its location on The Cape Fear River caused it to become a thriving port city with the largest cotton exchange in the world. Stately mansions with river views were built on Front Street for the prominent industrialists of that era. Today, Wilmington is a city that has retained its historical charm of yesteryear.  Wilmington has a nationally recognized Historic District containing thousands of historic homes that have been preserved and updated. Cobble-stoned streets lined with majestic live oaks draped in Spanish moss are commonplace.

In recent years the Historic Downtown area has seen explosive growth with new residences, condominiums and businesses on both the north and south ends of downtown.  Wilmington has a thriving night life with many fine stores, restaurants galleries, breweries, theaters and the Wilson Performing Arts Center that attract tourists and residents alike.  The historic riverwalk overlooking the North Carolina Battleship on the Cape Fear River is a popular destination for a stroll, a bite to eat or to catch an amazing sunset.

Historic Downtown Wilmington has an abundance of homes of different types and ages. You can find single family homes, townhomes, condominiums and multifamily homes. Duplex homes are also popular with investors desiring rental income. Monica has a wealth of experience investing in real estate downtown and representing her clients in the purchase and sale of homes and investment properties in Wilmington's Historic Downtown.  

If you’re looking to live an urban lifestyle or desire a second home in one of the most popular riverfront cities in the U.S. then Historic Downtown Wilmington may have what you’re looking for.  Start your Historic Downtown search right here or contact Monica for more information.
