Five Star Accommodations | House in Wilmington

Ten Minutes from Downtown Wilmington. Three Bedrooms plus Basement
Our supremely comfortable Cape Cod Cottage sits on a corner lot of the elegant Bancroft Parkway, near to Wawaset Park. Featuring a screened-in porch, gourmet kitchen and private parking, this property is equally suitable for visiting corporate executives as it is for sightseeing, weddings or family gatherings .
Despite the peaceful location, Bancroft Cottage is very much ‘in town’ — within walking distance of Wilmington’s historic Little Italy neighborhood, Trolley Square, the Delaware Art Museum, and a 10-minute drive to the Amtrak station and downtown business district.
THE SPACE: The property features two large upstairs bedrooms with queen beds, televisions and space to unpack. In addition, there is a first-floor bedroom/office with a twin bed, and a finished basement with two twin-sized beds for overflow guests. Each bedroom features high-quality linens and mattresses. There’s even a “Secret Room” off one of the bedrooms with another bed for a youngster.
Each floor features an upgraded bathroom (including a walk-in shower on the first floor and basement) and guests are provided with ample fresh towels & washcloths for their stay.
The open-plan kitchen and dining area has been remodeled to an exceptionally high standard, with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a generously sized double oven and refrigerator & freezer. All the cookware you can imagine is provided to prepare home cooked meals. The dining room sits six and with the additional leaf provided can sit eight. The living room with its fireplace, 52” television & wine bar is a great place to relax, entertain and leads to the charming screened-in porch with its views onto the property’s mature trees and quiet Parkway.
The backyard features lush plantings, a patio with dining table & chairs and a gas BBQ in season.
Modern conveniences including dishwasher and laundry facilities are at your disposal.
As remote hosts we are available to you during your stay and are delighted to provide you with our favorite recommendations in and around Wilmington — including dining at the Colonial Inn, Wilmington Riverfront, the du Pont’s’ ‘Nemours Estate’, ‘Winterthur Museum,’ and the picturesque Brandywine River Valley made famous by the painter Andrew Wyeth.
Farther afield is historic Philadelphia with its international airport (30 min.) and Delaware’s famous Rehoboth Beach resort (2 hours).
GUEST ACCESS: A one-car garage and driveway which easily can accommodate two more cars is covered by a security camera plus additional street parking on the side of the home. There is a keyless entry system for the front and back entrances; we will provide you with a private code for your use during your stay. No hassles picking up and dropping off keys.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: We are committed to your satisfaction and welcome any feedback during your stay so that we can quickly meet any exceptional requirements or remedy any issues you might encounter. Our housekeeper will prepare the cottage for your stay with care and our maintenance team in Wilmington can be called upon should anything go awry. The Host reserves the right to decline prospective guests with no or poor reviews.
