Located right downtown in a handsome historic row of mansions, you'll find this condo has old world charm paired with modern amenities. The vintage wood floors, baseboards, decorative non-operating original fireplaces, and other historic details will take you back in time to the 1800's, but the comfortable furnishings, clean ambiance, supplied kitchen, cozy bed, intelligent TV, and wifi meet today's traveler's needs. Recently modernized by a former New Yorker, this cozy condo captures the Manhattan feel with an open and clean design. The decor and feel brings the NYC 43rd St apartment vibes with the well appreciated historic elements paired with timeless subway tile, beautiful and jazzy decor, and an uncluttered look. This condo is one of five in a enormous historic home on Front Street.

Your condo is private with a private entrance, and is one of 5 in an amazing historic home. You can chill out on the shared front porch or sit outside in backyard on the patio. The 2nd floor balcony is shared with one other condo and accessed through a common area, with great vistas. You'll have access to a shared laundry room with coin operated machines inside. You'll also get one parking pass to park a normal size car or modest pickup behind the home (complimentary parking in downtown Wilmington!!)

We are here when you need us and invisible when you don't. Ada prides herself on speedy replies. We're here for you if you need us.

This condo is located in arguably the nicest block of Old Wilmington's historic mansion district. The architecture around the neighborhood is gorgeous, with mansions and huge single family homes. Treat yourself to downtown's best.

If you walk out the front door onto Front Street, you'll see the glamorous Dudley Mansion from 1825, a impressive 10,000 sq ft estate that was home to North Carolina's first Governor. If you walk out the back door and down the cozy alley driveway to 2nd Street, you'll see block after block of elegant Victorian homes. If you adore old homes and turn of the century architecture, be sure to make some time to take it in!

Just walk!!! You're very close to eateries, shopping, nightlife, entertainment, the waterfront and riverwalk, museums, and ghost tours!

Cape Fear area rental home tips and tricks:

Sticking to your budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Cape Fear area area. Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is an excellent way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area travel guides which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Select vacation week and maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Manhattan on Front! Balcony Park Free! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking pages. If not, call the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Request information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking

Know before you go:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Make a record of any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to drive more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
