Property description
WOW! When was the last time you saw a listing in Bishops Walk? I ll tell you! Over a year ago! This one-of-a-kind neighborhood rarely has people leaving because they love it so much! Location is top notch, right off the highways and the new Fairvew Campus of Appoquinimink District. Yes thats right, an ALL NEW school campus is less than a mile away where your child can attend 1-12th grade in one spot! Besides location, Bishops Walk also has large lots, all 1/2 acre, and large estate style homes with side-entry garages! Its a rare find for sure! This home has over 3700 sq ft of finished living space but it FEELS like 5,000! Every single room is huge and ceilings soar nearly 20 feet tall! Lets start out and work our way in... outside you ll enjoy a 3-car garage side entrance on a corner 1/2 acre parcel. Plenty of privacy in the rear of the home with a tree lined perimeter and privately owned land behind that. Inside you ll enjoy real hardwood floors, a sunken living room, main floor bedroom with FULL bathroom, formal dining room and an updated kitchen! The kitchen also features a separate workspace and just recently had new granite installed! A professional painter used their magic wand to turn the cabinets to the Alabaster White color, and with stainless steel appliances it looks like a brand new kitchen! Just next to the kitchen is the enormous family room with fireplace and 2-story windows. There is a 2nd staircase to the upstairs that leads from the family room, or you can take the wood staircase in the foyer. Upstairs you ll love the wood throughout the halls and the walk-in laundry room! Four bedrooms up there bring the total to 5 and the size of them will impress you! Any kid would do flips for these size rooms (I know mine would)! The master retreat is just that... a retreat for the master of this house! It s extremely gracious with two large walk in closets, an oversized sitting room, a vanity area, garden bath, and cathedral ceilings! The basement in this home offers over 1500 additional square feet for storage or entertainment (get creative)! So in summary, a 5 bedroom McMansion awaits you in rarely available Bishops Walk under 500k... Don t walk, R-U-N!
