Description

Welcome to 737 South Harrison Street — a beautifully maintained gem in the heart of Hedgeville! Nestled in a desirable community, this charming home boasts wonderful curb appeal with a “flower ready” mulch bed waiting for your plantings and garden gnomes. The inviting and large covered front porch features a new low-maintenance composite deck — the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee or unwind in the evening. A brand-new front door adds a modern touch to the home’s exterior, enhancing both curb appeal and energy efficiency. Step inside to discover a bright and airy living room filled with warmth and character. The entire home has been freshly painted from head to toe, creating a crisp, clean look that complements all of the many updates. Sunlight streams through the large windows, gleaming on the newly refinished oak hardwood floors creating an inviting atmosphere and making this room perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. Continue into the spacious formal dining room, where a stylish overhead ceiling fan and light fixture illuminate this inviting gathering area. There’s plenty of room for a full dining set — comfortably seating eight to ten guests — making it perfect for holidays, dinner parties, and family celebrations. The kitchen is a cook’s delight, offering an open and functional layout with room for a breakfast table. Two large windows bring in abundant natural light, highlighting the new luxury vinyl plank flooring and freshly refinished oak cabinetry. You’ll love the generous storage space, granite-style countertops, and new under-cabinet LED lighting that adds a modern touch. The kitchen is equipped with new appliances, including a Whirlpool refrigerator, and Hotpoint gas range with exhaust hood. A double sink complete with a built-in soap dispenser adds extra functionality. Just off the kitchen, you’ll find a main-level full bathroom featuring a neo-angle shower, continued luxury vinyl plank flooring, and convenient Samsung stacked washer and dryer — offering true first-floor laundry convenience. From here you’ll also find access to the backyard where you’ll enjoy a manageable green space ideal for a small garden, play area, or outdoor seating — ready for your personal touches. A side walkway provides added convenience, including a discreet area for trash storage and easy access to the street where more convenient parking awaits. Upstairs, the updates continue with brand-new carpeting and fresh paint throughout. The hall bath has been thoughtfully refreshed with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, a new vanity sink, and new toilet. Complete with a window for continued natural sunlight. Both secondary bedrooms are comfortably sized with ample closet space and a warm, inviting feel. At the end of the hallway, retreat to the expansive primary bedroom, offering plenty of room for a king-size bed, additional furnishings, and decor. Two windows flood the space with sunshine, while the deep closet with double hanging bars provides generous storage. The basement is exceptionally clean, dry, and functional — perfect for storage or a workshop. It includes a built-in workbench, a 100-amp circuit breaker panel, a 40-gallon Bradford White hot gas water heater, and a Utica gas boiler providing reliable, efficient heating. Another important update: the silicone roof was just recoated 2025 for years of protection. 737 S Harrison St offers easy access to local restaurants, parks, and shops, with downtown Wilmington just minutes away.
