416 Castle Street

Become the next steward of this remarkable historic Wilmington home, where more than a century of history meets the opportunity to create its next chapter. Offered as-is, this circa-1904 residence offers approximately 1,154 square feet filled with timeless character, including soaring 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, four fireplaces, beautiful fireplace mantels, inviting front and rear porches, and numerous preserved architectural details. The thoughtful floor plan features a welcoming foyer, separate living and family rooms, two spacious bedrooms, a large kitchen with outstanding potential for future updates, and a centrally located full bath. One bedroom remains true to its original design with no closet. A generous 17-foot rear deck overlooks the deep approximately 43' × 133' homesite, while off-street parking for three or more vehicles is a rare downtown convenience. Just steps from Wilmington's vibrant Castle Street District, you'll enjoy an eclectic mix of locally owned restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, boutiques, vintage shops, galleries, and year-round community events. The home is adjacent to a beautifully restored historic firehouse offering boutique guest accommodations and directly across from the acclaimed Rx Chicken & Oysters in the iconic former Hall's Drug Store. Ideally located between Historic Downtown, the Cargo District, and the Soda Pop District, you'll have easy access to the Cape Fear Riverwalk, Live Oak Bank Pavilion, the Wilson Center, museums, and Wilmington's thriving dining and entertainment scene. Located within Wilmington's Urban Mixed Use (UMX) zoning district where historic homes, thoughtfully restored commercial buildings, locally owned businesses, and continued investment have made the Castle Street District one of the city's most sought-after walkable neighborhoods, this is a rare opportunity to restore, personalize, or invest in a distinctive piece of architectural heritage.
