☆ Welcome to The Historic Emerald Gem ☆

Located in Downtown Wilmington's Historic District, our home was constructed in 1889! Notoriously known as the "Cummings-Taylor House", it sits on a cobblestone paved-road and consists of three cavernous, private/separate apartments. It has been completely (yet meticulously) refreshed & decorated to preserve its rich history + aesthetic.
• 10 min. walk/4 blocks to the heart of downtown Wilmington & Riverwalk!
a fast & striking walk to all of the local favorite eateries, bars, concerts, and family activities this alluring town offers.

Come relax, discover, savor & make yourself at home!
