Welcome to 1721 Gilpin Avenue, a charming brick townhome situated in the heart of Wilmington's highly desirable Trolley Square neighborhood. Offering a wonderful blend of historic character, thoughtful updates, comfortable living spaces, and exceptional walkability, this home presents an opportunity to enjoy one of the city's most vibrant locations.

An inviting covered front porch welcomes you inside, where hardwood floors and an abundance of natural light create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The main level features a spacious living and dining area that flows into the kitchen, complete with a new appliance package installed in 2025 and an additional breakfast area for casual dining. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, each offering ample closet space, along with a beautifully remodeled full bathroom completed in 2023. The third-floor loft provides a versatile additional living area, ideal for a home office, guest space, or private retreat, featuring custom built-ins and additional closet storage, with direct access to an elevated outdoor deck. Additional interior improvements include updated carpeting on the stairs and upper levels, along with refreshed paint throughout the home.

Outside, the fenced rear yard offers a private setting for entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing outdoors. Recent exterior improvements include updated landscaping and lighting, as well as a freshly painted exterior in 2025. Whether enjoying your morning coffee on the front porch or unwinding on the upper-level deck, the home provides multiple spaces to enjoy both indoors and out.

Located just steps from the restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, and nightlife of Trolley Square, and only a short walk to the scenic trails and green spaces of Brandywine Park, this property offers the perfect combination of neighborhood charm and city convenience. With easy access to downtown Wilmington, major commuter routes, and everything the surrounding area has to offer, 1721 Gilpin Avenue is a wonderful place to call home.
