The Murchison House is arguably one of Wilmington's most significant historic homes. An example of the Second Empire style of architecture, the home has been painstakingly restored by the present owner. Double parlors feature beautiful wood inlay floors as do several of the other rooms. The library, with its built-in lead glass front cabinets, features an extraordinary fireplace. The detail and expense of this massive restoration is evident in every room. There are five large bedrooms on the second floor, one complete with a kitchenette. All bedrooms have their own private bath. The home includes two additional half baths. A 2286 sf carriage house contains two refurbished 1-bedroom apartments. All of this sits on a triple wide corner lot that provides ample off-street parking. The back yard is walled for privacy featuring a beautiful koi pond and an idyllic setting to be enjoyed from various porches. The Murchison House also has a full B & B permit.
