Chestnut Heights-Princess Place, located between Oleander Drive and Market Street, is a residential and institutional Wilmington neighborhood with mid-century streetscapes and a campus-edge energy. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Oleander Drive corridor near the UNCW entrance, where coffee counters, casual eateries, and small-service storefronts set a steady daytime rhythm. Ranch homes and brick cottages sit under mature trees, with sidewalks and short blocks that favor walking and biking. UNCW’s cultural calendar and green spaces shape the area’s pace without overpowering its quiet side streets. Nearby, the Cameron Art Museum, Cape Fear Museum of History and Science, and Thalian Hall anchor a broader arts circuit tied to daily life here.
