The space The cottage is a single-story ADU behind a fully remodeled American Foursquare home originally built in 1897.
The cottage has its own entrance, kitchen and bath, with a nice size living room. The sleeping room is just off the living room and features a queen bed with a plush pillowtop mattress. There also is a desk in a corner of the living room for those who may need to work remotely. Fast internet is powered by AT&T fiber, with speed up to 1 GB per second.

Jeff's place was perfect for my stay! It had everything I could have needed and more. The location was great; having several food options within a few blocks, but also being only about a 20 minute walk to the heart of downtown. I would definitely recommend staying here!
Our stay in Wilmington was great. The small cottage was as described and clean upon our arrival. Several restaurants within easy walking distance with downtown Wilmington only a slight further walk. In fact, we didn't drive once at the unit.
