Property Description

Investor or handy owner-occupant alert! 1100 Prospect Ave offers a solid opportunity to renovate a classic bungalow in the Marshallton Heights area of Wilmington. With approximately 1,125 square feet, a functional layout, hardwood floors, and a large detached garage, this property provides a practical footprint for a renovation, rental, or resale project. The main level features two bedrooms, one full bathroom, and hardwood flooring throughout much of the living space. The living room offers a brick wood-burning fireplace and plenty of natural light, while the adjacent dining area features hardwood floors, overhead lighting, a ceiling fan, and large windows. The kitchen includes wood cabinetry, generous counter space, and a gas range, providing a good starting point for an update. Both bedrooms offer usable space and closet storage, with the primary bedroom featuring hardwood floors and a decent-sized closet. The hall bathroom includes a shower/tub combination and is ready for renovation. An enclosed front porch adds additional space and potential to the home. Upstairs, the second floor offers the possibility of creating two additional rooms, subject to the buyer’s plans and any required approvals. The full basement provides substantial storage space and includes the laundry area. Outside, the approximately 0.17-acre lot includes a semi-fenced yard, rear deck, driveway parking, and a large detached garage. The location provides convenient access to restaurants, shopping, major highways, and area routes. The property does require significant repairs and updating, but the existing layout, hardwood floors, fireplace, basement, garage, and potential additional living space make this an appealing project for someone ready to put in the work.
