Actually this property was not a farm. At one time it did have trees. My first home was in that area. When Wilmington had an influx of Northerners move here in the late 80's early 90's the builders could not build homes fast enough. The zoning requirements were such that homes were not built right on top of each other like this neighborhood. Average lots were 1/2 to 3/4 of an acre. However, when we started growing again in the late 90's the zoning requirements allowed postage stamp sized lots of 0.34 or 0.18 of an acre with homes in arm's length of each other so we would have room for the growth and not run out of houses again. Some Northerners don't mind the row house/cookie cutter effect of looking into a neighbors windows because they are used to it. I know this because I work with many buyers from all parts of the country. Some people just are not used to seeing trees and don't want a large yard. So if you want to see this house, I would be happy to show it or any other homes in this area to you. Just contact me. Thanks. - Tue Jan 20 2009, 07:39
