A Landmark Residence. Thoughtfully Restored. Timelessly Elegant. There are homes that simply provide a place to live—and there are homes that become part of your legacy. Offered for under $1.1 million, this extraordinary Colonial Revival residence in Wilmington’s coveted Historic Cool Spring neighborhood presents a rare opportunity to own one of the city’s architectural treasures. Proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this stately brick home has been meticulously restored, preserving its rich history while embracing the comforts and sophistication of modern living. Set on an exceptionally rare double residential lot along picturesque Pennsylvania Avenue, the property immediately captivates with its iconic gambrel roof, mature trees, expansive front porch, and commanding presence. Inside, every room reflects the craftsmanship of another era—soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, intricate millwork, leaded glass windows, grand fireplaces, and elegant architectural details create a home that feels both distinguished and welcoming. While honoring its historic character, the residence has undergone an extensive renovation designed for today’s homeowner. Major improvements include new electrical and plumbing systems, replacement windows, a new roof, beautifully reimagined kitchen and bathrooms, and professionally designed landscaping, providing the confidence of modern infrastructure within a home of extraordinary heritage. Designed for both gracious entertaining and everyday living, the residence offers over three expansive levels with six spacious bedrooms, three and one-half baths, elegant formal living and dining rooms, flexible gathering spaces, a walk-out lower level, and a full-height attic with exceptional storage. Every floor offers spaces that effortlessly adapt to today’s lifestyle—from private home offices and guest suites to playrooms, libraries, or creative studios. Beyond the home itself lies one of its most remarkable features: a private outdoor sanctuary rarely found within the city. The beautifully landscaped backyard has been thoughtfully curated as both an entertainer’s retreat and a gardener’s paradise. An expansive paver terrace, inviting outdoor fireplace, and an abundance of carefully selected, low-maintenance perennial gardens create an idyllic setting for intimate evenings, family celebrations, or peaceful mornings surrounded by blooms throughout the seasons. Adding to its rarity, the property features a long private driveway and detached garage accommodating three or more vehicles—an exceptional luxury in Wilmington’s historic district. Homes of this architectural significance, scale, and level of restoration seldom become available. To find one that combines historic pedigree, modern systems, extraordinary outdoor living, and a premier location at under $1.1 million is truly exceptional. This is more than a beautifully restored historic home—it is an opportunity to own one of Wilmington’s finest residences, thoughtfully prepared for its next chapter.

A welcoming enclosed vestibule with original red quarry tile sets the tone for the home’s timeless character and scale. French doors open to a spacious reception hall and elegant formal living room with fireplace, flowing seamlessly into the dining room, currently utilized as a family room. A distinctive architectural highlight is the opening between the dining and kitchen areas, accented by original trim and a stained-glass —once a butler’s pantry or serving passage—now serving as a striking focal point that preserves its historic detail while accommodating modern use. The spacious kitchen has been thoughtfully updated over time and features stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, flowing seamlessly into the morning room with access to a private deck and backyard, complete with a newly added pergola for outdoor enjoyment. Throughout the home, original transom windows, divided-light French doors, rich hardwood floors, wide Craftsman-style millwork, and period hardware reflect the craftsmanship and intention of early 20th-century design. A central staircase leads to the second floor, where the spacious primary suite includes an en suite bath, walk-in closet, and adjoining office/dressing room. Two additional bedrooms, a full hall bath, and a large laundry room complete this level. The third floor offers a fourth bedroom with views of the downtown Wilmington skyline. Unique architectural surprises throughout, further enhance the home’s charm, including a hidden staircase, a cozy reading nook built into the stair wall, and a tucked-away bonus space beneath the stairs that provides flexible use as storage, a creative retreat, or quiet workspace. The furnace, AC, and metal roof have all been replaced within the past two years. Just steps from the revitalized Rodney Reservoir—offering scenic walking paths, community events, and private garden plots—this location delivers an exceptional lifestyle. Enjoy nearby tennis and pickleball courts, along with local favorites such as BrewHaHa, The Coterie, and the highly anticipated Café Karma, plus an expanding mix of neighborhood shops and dining. Ideally positioned for walkability and convenience, the home is minutes from parks, restaurants, shopping, and nightlife in Trolley Square and the Forty Acres neighborhood, as well as highly regarded private schools including Padua and Ursuline Academy. Commuters will appreciate quick access to I-95, downtown Wilmington, the Riverfront, Amtrak, and under 30 minutes to Philadelphia International Airport, Christiana Hospital, the University of Delaware, and Christiana Mall. North Rodney Street has long retained its historic charm, and 706 N Rodney continues that legacy—offering enduring character, architectural significance, and lasting value in one of Wilmington’s most established neighborhoods.
