The Bellamy Mansion, built between 1859 and 1861, is a mixture of Neoclassical architectural styles, including Greek Revival and Italianate, and is located at 503 Market Street in the heart of downtown Wilmington, North Carolina.
5.0 of 5 bubbles. Worth a visit. The staff is friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend the guided tour to enhance your experience. Be sure to ask lots of questions. Of particular note are actual slave quarters that have been preserved behind the main house.
