Our take on 1007 Chestnut Street
Written by the Buddy Blake Team from the listing photos and MLS data. Not part of the MLS listing or the listing broker's description.
This single-story property was built in 1930 and offers 1,411 square feet with three bedrooms and one bathroom. The front porch stands out, with a concrete floor, a wrought iron railing, and striped metal awnings over the windows. Pink trim and red shutters add color to the facade. Inside, an arched opening leads from the entry into the main living area, where wood flooring runs through the rooms and a wood-paneled wall adds warmth. Blinds cover the windows, and a chandelier hangs in the dining area.
The lot is 0.13 acres and sits in Wilmington, outside of any subdivision. An attached one-car garage is served by asphalt parking. Heating and cooling come from a heat pump and central air system.
