The additional 621 square feet upstairs is not included in the square footage of the home due to the ceiling heights. While the house itself is special, the size and configuration of the property make this offering particularly compelling. The beautiful, tree-lined lot extends from 7th Street through to Wilson Street, providing access to the rear of the property from Wilson Street, a potentially valuable feature for a downtown Wilmington residence. The possibilities are intriguing. Preserve the expansive yard as a private garden and outdoor retreat, create additional parking, or investigate options for an accessory structure while maintaining the historic residence as the centerpiece of the property. Incredible Location is another standout feature. The home is just one block from Robert Strange Park, putting recreation remarkably close to home. Even more of Wilmington's downtown lifestyle awaits approximately seven blocks away at the coveted Wilmington Riverfront, where restaurants, shopping, entertainment, historic streets, and beautiful views of the Cape Fear River create one of the city's most desirable destinations. This is the kind of location that makes it possible to enjoy both the neighborhood character of historic Wilmington and the energy of downtown living. The history of the property adds another meaningful dimension. According to the Historic Wilmington Foundation, Inc., the McLaughlin-Richard House was built in 1930 in the Craftsman bungalow style for Robert McLaughlin (1885-1942). The property was purchased in 1944 by George L. Richard (1895-1975), a yard worker and small-business operator, and his wife, Millie Bryant Richard (1907-1994), a beautician and owner of Lezora's Beauty Salon. The Richards were natives of Craven County, North Carolina. That documented history connects the home to the people and small businesses that were part of Wilmington's story. The McLaughlin-Richard House is more than a place to live. It is a chance to own a distinctive piece of Wilmington history, enjoy the lifestyle of downtown, and become the next caretaker of a home that has stood here for nearly a century. Historic character. A remarkable lot. Downtown convenience. And possibilities for the future, all in the heart of Wilmington.

Own a piece of Wilmington history in the heart of Sunset Park, one of the city's most beloved downtown neighborhoods. Built in 1910, this 2,628 sq ft classic home has been thoughtfully and extensively updated -- the kind of bones-deep renovation that turns a historic gem into a move-in-ready home without sacrificing an ounce of character. The main level flows generously from a grand foyer through formal living and dining spaces into a completely rebuilt kitchen and adjoining room -- the kitchen area was taken to the studs and rebuilt from the ground up with modern finishes while honoring the home's original craftsmanship. Freshly stripped trim, staircase, and fireplace showcase the natural wood that newer homes simply can't replicate. Upstairs, three bedrooms -- including an oversized primary suite with a newly built walk-in closet -- offer flexibility for families, remote workers, or guests. Three full baths serve both levels with ease. Additional updates include nearly all-new electrical throughout, all outlets converted to grounded, new water supply lines including the main line, and a freshly run natural gas line serving the kitchen stove and an outdoor grill hookup -- plus a rear hose bib added for convenience. These are the high-ticket, low-glamour investments that protect buyers for decades. Step outside and the property delivers on every front -- literally. A large covered front porch sets the tone the moment you arrive, perfect for the slow mornings this neighborhood was made for. Out back, a rear deck leads to a private, fenced yard with a dedicated firepit area and a storage shed, all sheltered enough to feel like your own retreat. A carport keeps your vehicle covered without sacrificing the home's curb appeal. Sunset Park puts you minutes from Greenfield Lake Park, the Greenfield Lake Amphitheatre, and the South Front District's growing restaurant and bar scene, with the quiet, tree-lined streets that make this one of Wilmington's most sought-after addresses. This is the one people drive through Sunset Park hoping to find.
