Property description
A terrific place to call home! A bounty of homeowner benefits and a superb location really do matter. So, here is a great opportunity to live in a thoughtfully modified, three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath ranch home perfectly nestled on a 13,500+ square foot beautifully landscaped lot on a one block street in town, walkable to Newark’s shops and restaurant-filled Main Street, S Main Street, and the heart of the University of Delaware campus. Prominent neighbors of this intriguing home include Phillips Park and the Newark History Museum. Let’s begin by making note of the impressive, expanded driveway and the front-facing, two-car garage with sixteen-panel doors that were added in 2012, the handsome vinyl siding and Andersen windows added in 2014, and the wrap-around sidewalk leading to the amply covered front porch featuring a ceiling fan, swing, and Trex decking, also added in 2014. Once inside, you will delight in the open expanse of hardwood flooring from left to right, seamlessly connecting the living room with its wet-bar area, refrigerator, built-in step-down cabinets, and French doors leading out to a paver patio. The dining area is in the middle situated by a heartening fireplace adorned with an extended surround, and the kitchen is to the right. Kitchen details include granite counter tops, a stainless-steel undermount single-bowl sink, beautiful Shaker-style wood cabinets topped with crown molding, a peninsula with breakfast bar and pendant lighting, and popular stainless-steel appliances including a four-burner Fisher and Paykel professional gas range (2022) with a microwave oven above, a new dishwasher (2022), and a four-door French-door refrigerator with external ice and water. These appliances are included in the sale of this amazing home. The main level has many more benefits to offer a new owner, including a generously sized primary suite with a walk-in closet, a lighted ceiling fan, recessed lighting, and an en-suite bathroom featuring WarmWire heated flooring, Shaker-style cabinets, and a heated towel bar in the spectacular walk-in shower! Our tour continues with a peek at two well-sized secondary bedrooms that can accommodate a variety of needs, a completely renovated shared hall bath, a pantry closet, a coat closet, a powder room added in 2010, direct access to the garage, and the generous main-level laundry area featuring a front-loading washer and dryer. Additional highlights include new central air (2022), updated 200-amp electric service panel in 2014, a large sliding barn door separating the front rooms from the rear-facing bedrooms and bath, and a full-view, 15-lite exterior door providing entry to the 14 x 10 screened porch complete with a lighted ceiling fan and wall-mounted television and direct access to a large paver patio and the mature landscaped fenced yard beyond! One seller is a licensed real estate Broker in the State of Delaware. Home inspection and WDI completed 9/14/23 and attached as disclosures.
