Step into timeless Dutch Colonial charm at 106 Borden Ave in Wilmington, where classic symmetry, mature landscaping, and thoughtful updates come together in a truly inviting setting. Built in 1931, this home blends character and comfort with a covered front porch, east-facing facade for beautiful morning light, and a private backyard retreat designed for relaxing and entertaining. Enjoy evenings around the fire pit, unwind beneath the perfectly placed hammock trees, or take in sunset views from the deck surrounded by lush foliage, blooming azaleas, camellias, crepe myrtles, jasmine, and wisteria. An incredible pecan tree anchors the yard, while the dogwood tree outside the primary bedroom window creates a peaceful natural view. Inside, the kitchen features granite counters, an extended breakfast bar, and a charming butler's pantry ideal for a coffee station, baking space, display area, or additional storage. All wallpaper throughout the home is peel-and-stick for easy customization. Two HVAC units provide year-round comfort, and a tankless exterior water heater and new washing machine were installed in 2026. Additional updates include a vapor barrier in the crawlspace as a preventative measure and freshly stained deck railings completed in April 2026. The detached ''party barn'' offers incredible flexibility with extra storage, countertop bar, sink, and space perfect for entertaining, hobbies, a private office, or creative retreat. A bikeable location with off-street parking near downtown Wilmington and the Cargo District, close proximity to Wallace Park, easy access to Market Street and highways, plus the airport just minutes away make this centrally located property as convenient as it is charming.
