Property Description

Welcome to 1908 Woodlawn Avenue, a stately 7 bedroom, 4.5 bath home with over 5,000 sq ft of finished space built in 1915. For the discerning buyer seeking historic character with ample volume and opportunity in one of Wilmington's most respected neighborhoods — this is your canvas. Featuring many of the original architectural details, this home is a treasure that longs to reclaim its former splendor. The exterior features a stunning portico with entablature and 4 fluted columns, 3 classically proportioned dormers, ornamental window headers and brick quoin detailing offering a stark contrast against the home's white façade. As you step inside, you enter a world where timeless elegance meets enduring craftsmanship. This distinguished residence features a formal vestibule with exquisite stained-glass inlays, 4 wood burning fireplaces with exceptional detailing and decorative millwork throughout the entire formal living space. The grand foyer is perfectly complemented by ornate sconces, wainscoting and crown molding which extend to both the dining and living rooms. The formal dining room has recessed sliding doors, a grand fireplace, built-in china closet, crystal chandelier and opulent drapery. The living room also has a substantial fireplace with intricate carved wood detailing, multiple built-in cabinets with antique stained-glass doors, tailored drapery and hidden pocket doors. Adjacent to the living room is a spacious sunroom, beautifully encircled by windows and transoms. And tucked away behind the living room is a richly appointed office/study with brick fireplace, wood paneling and built-in shelving. Just off the dining room is the butler pantry which leads to a modest sized kitchen true to its period's design. There is also a rear staircase making access to the second floor convenient. A powder room and laundry room complete the main floor. The second floor is comprised of 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, one of which has an en suite bathroom. There is also an additional room ample in size that could be used for storage. The third floor has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, one of which also has an en suite bathroom. There is also a cedar closet, a large storage closet, and an unfinished attic space that can be used for additional storage. And finally, there is a large unfinished basement space with a walkout leading to the backyard. With it's close proximity to Rockford Park and just blocks away from Trolley Square, Forty Acres and downtown Wilmington, this location offers convenient access to the area's local attractions, such as the Delaware Art Museum, Brandywine Park, Hagley Museum, The Delaware Center for Horticulture and Winterthur Museum Garden & Library.
