Welcome to 1319 Princess Street

Dream a little dream... and claim this piece of Historic Wilmington as well as the primary location and

focus of the 1988 feature film 'Dream a Little Dream'. The classic lines and original features of this Circa

1925, 4 bedroom, 2 full bath, 2670 sq. ft. home including plaster walls, original restored wood floors, 9

ft.+ ceilings, deep moldings, huge 8/8 and 6/6 operable windows, glass door knobs and original

hardware, arched breakfast nook, French doors, and deep, welcoming front porch have stood the test of

time quite a bit better than the big hair and leotards popular at the time of its 1988 film debut. The

current owners have devoted much of their time and effort behind the scenes especially with the

heating and air systems in 2018. All new duct work, gas lines, electrical lines, two air conditioning units

including air handlers and compressors (one for first level and one for second level), two new gas

furnaces for heat - one for each level. They conditioned both enclosed porches to be livable square

footage, added gutters to remediate water seepage in basement, excavated some and refinished most

of the original wood floors, refurbished mechanics of most windows, converted fireplace to natural gas,

and on top of all that did an amazing makeover of the exterior with a complete paint job inspired by the

unique original spotted iron brickwork and are now putting the finishing touches on the yard with a full

privacy fence and two off street parking spaces. Get ready for your close up.... view either virtually with

our Matterport 360 tour and supporting documents or in person with Covid 19 protocols in place. Write

yourself into the script for the next scene at 1319 Princess Street and make your Dreams Come True!
