1212 Delaware Ave #C5 · Apartment for Rent

Set within Delaware Hall - Wilmington's original grand apartment residence and an Art Deco landmark now approaching its centennial - Residence C5 offers one of the most desirable one-bedroom layouts in the building, pairing generous proportions, remarkable storage and all-day natural light. As one of the largest one-bedroom floorplans, C5 lives with an ease that is immediately felt. Its windows look down South Franklin Street with southern exposure, bringing in light throughout the day. The layout is practical and gracious, with a proper foyer, a separate dining area off the kitchen, and closet space that is increasingly hard to find. Off the foyer, a walk-in closet provides ample storage, while two additional large bedroom closets offer exceptional flexibility. The bedroom comfortably accommodates substantial furniture, including a king-sized bed. The kitchen has been newly renovated with brand-new cabinetry, brand-new stainless steel appliances and brand-new green-veined granite, while natural green slate backsplash and flooring extend through both the kitchen and dining area, giving the space a distinctive material richness. Original built-in elements remain as a subtle nod to Delaware Hall's architectural lineage. What gives C5 its deeper charm is a layer of personality that cannot be manufactured. Wall-to-ceiling mirrors run through parts of the apartment, a detail said to date back decades to a former resident who used the space for dance. C5 offers scale, light, storage and a layout that lives genuinely well, within one of Wilmington's most enduring residential buildings. Trolley Square remains Wilmington's most walkable neighborhood, with cafes, restaurants, grocery, nightlife and salons close at hand. Center City is within walking distance and the Riverwalk is nearby. With close access to I-95, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and New York remain within practical reach. ALL UTILITIES INCLUDED.
