About 2018 Gilpin Ave
Located in Wilmington’s desirable Highlands neighborhood, this historic three-story brick home was completely renovated in 2020, seamlessly blending timeless architectural character with modern comfort.

The comprehensive project also included new windows, HVAC systems, kitchen and baths, along with beautiful hardwood floors, custom millwork and thoughtful finishes throughout. The main level features a bright, open-concept living, dining and kitchen area designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The expanded custom Goebel kitchen offers generous storage and is appointed with Thermador stainless steel appliances. Stately 9.5-foot ceilings, detailed millwork and a gas fireplace enhance the home’s spacious and inviting atmosphere. The home offers four bedrooms, a dedicated office and four full baths, including the generously sized primary suite with an en-suite bath and walk-in closet. Two-zone heating and cooling provide year-round comfort. Outside, enjoy a professionally landscaped, private rear yard with a slate patio. The oversized, detached two-story garage is accessed from the rear alley and provides secure parking, additional off-street parking and an exceptional, fantastic and spacious second-floor recreation or entertaining space—a truly impressive bonus that is a rare feature! An exceptional Highlands residence offering historic charm, beautiful craftsmanship and the ease of a comprehensive modern renovation. Owner is a licensed realtor.
