About this property
Midnight Bungalow, near Cargo District, Downtown Wilmington, & local beaches
Indulge in a mid-century modern moody bungalow with a low country Audubon flare. This eclectically accentuated home is located near the popular Cargo District in Wilmington, in an urban environment, where you can enjoy mouthwatering dishes, shops, breweries, coffee, & more. Convenient 3-min ride to all downtown Wilmington has to offer.
This unique home is perfect for those who love an experience & enjoy a historic home with character, sophisticated style, & conversation pieces.
A true piece of history and located in Downtown Wilmington, NC, this moody bungalow is dedicated to offering you stylish design and experience. You will notice the cozy ambiance as you enter the home. Carefully curated mid-century furniture pieces are accompanied by an inspiration of Audubon's and local, low country wildlife; allowing the artwork and design to feel as though it's coming to life. The design intentionally provides you with artwork and retro-vintage-inspired conversation pieces to enjoy while you're surrounded by ornate accents that allow you to witness carefully restored details, original to the bungalow. Some of the details include tall ceilings, wood-stained medallions, original woodworking, hardware, preserved fireplaces, and plaster walls. Each space was conceptualized with the intent to inspire through art and timeless design. Careful thought and intention has been put forth to provide you with a retreat in all areas of the home- even as you enjoy front porch sitting and backyard stargazing while benefiting from the conveniences of a quick walk or ride to award-winning restaurants, concert venues, river walks, historic landmarks, shopping, and beaches. This boutique experience was intentionally developed so that every guest feels as though this was something new for them. Our mission is to also ensure that you will have a clean home to yourself so that you can be inspired and refreshed by the bungalow during your stay in Downtown Wilmington.
The Midnight Bungalow is located in an city/urban setting, specifically surrounded by: a local coffee shop, craft pretzel shop, and conveniently next to a convenience store. You will likely see neighbors walking by with their dogs, and other foot traffic as typical in a city/urban environment. Please remember you are booking a home in a city/urban environment.
THE SPACE/FLOW:
After being greeted by the oversized porch with seating and porch swing you will walk into a relaxing living area that offers a large couch and two leather chairs to unwind and enjoy a large 50" smart TV with apps such as Roku TV, Netflix, Hulu, Disney +, and more to login and stream right where you left off.
Just past the original french doors, you will notice a darling oversized dining area that overlooks the living room. The dining table is set to sit 4 adults comfortably with extra seating in the corner if needed. You will dine and enjoy the breathtaking Audubon mural tribute with eclectic lightings such as the oversized, mid-century chandelier and mid-century sconce lights for an intimate setting.
The primary bedroom located in the rear of the home offers a large king-sized canopy bed with a large, walk-in closet and mid-century dresser for guests to use. You will also be provided a Smart TV that hangs over the original fireplace. This room is equipped with a fan that offers adjustable fan speeds as well as lighting.
The secondary bedroom offers a comfortable queen-sized bed with a closet and dresser for guests to use. This room also provides a Smart TV for guests to use. This room is also equipped with a fan that offers adjustable fan speeds as well as lighting.
The newly renovated bathroom offers a spa-like feel with a walk-in shower wrapped with subway tile and hexagon floor tile, complemented by stained beadboard ceilings, and mid-century lighting.
The kitchen is located in the back of the home and features plenty of space to cook full meals. Beautiful white shaker cabinets, veining countertops, brick backsplash, and floating shelves add to the ambiance. Guests will enjoy a retro flare with a Galanz mid-century-style refrigerator and microwave.
At the end of the day, you're able to unwind in the fenced yard to surround yourself with large, beautiful trees that canopy over the yard, with a variety of colorful plants that give you a Key West-like vibe. Intimate string lights illuminate the patio and seating area at night, providing a dim-lit ambiance that allows you to settle down after a day's end.
**Guests must understand this is a historic home that has been meticulously restored to preserve its historic integrity. This is not a modern, new home. Respect its irreplaceable features.
**We suggest purchasing travel insurance.
