Noteworthy home on N. Jefferson St.! Perched on a coveted corner lot of a beautiful tree-line city stree is this 5 BRs/2 ½ bath all-brick home with bonus, unheard-of separate in-law suite and 1-car garage with 3+ driveway parking. Perfectly positioned, the home is around the corner from a park, walkable to Brandywine Zoo, downtown Wilm. and Trolley Square, and merely minutes away from I-95. Gorgeous brick paver edged landscaped and mulched beds wrap home in beauty, and elevated, black iron railed front porch with room for bench and chairs is the ideal spot to listen to the hum of neighbor life and appreciate circular brick paver accent on street below. Exceptional curb appeal! Step through blue front door with arc transom into lovely home with abundance of charm and character! While home’s beloved elements of earlier era were preserved, they are fused with modern, must-have appointments. Appreciate original hardwood floors, original natural wood doors, deep inset large windows, extra wide baseboards with electrical outlets, and neutral paint throughout. Stunning turned hardwood staircase sits opposite front door, while to left is spacious, light-filled front room with angles, big windows, recessed lights, roomy hall closet and enchanting hint of exposed brick wall. There is ample square footage for creating quaint foyer and FR if desired or keeping the space as one continuous living area. From front room angled entrance leads into seamless blend of DR and kitchen, spanning back of home. DR echoes brick accent in LR and here it is a fully exposed brick wall, lending such warmth and texture to room. DR is open and airy, large enough for expansive table and chairs. Note the ornate gold exposed piping and gold ceiling medallion and light. DR is completely open to adjacent kitchen, where modern amenities and barnwood-style, easy-clean flooring are introduced. Pristine white cabinets are accented with matte black brushed hardware and line upper perimeter of room, while black cabinets line lower perimeter creating dramatic contrast! Ribbons of gray run through white granite countertops and are paired with white, textured tile backsplash. SS appliances including DW offer sleek accent and extended countertop with gold ball pendant lights above provide valuable extra prep and entertaining space. Tucked off kitchen is PR with barely-there pocket door, bumped-out pedestal sink and lead glass window. Opposite PR is valuable mud room in hue of blue, where bench and hooks can be added for easy storage, as well as access to backyard, garage and street. Main staircase leads up to 2 nd level where 4 BRs fan out with convenient access to full bath. All 4 BRs are quite sizable and continue to showcase the same lovely characteristics of a well-preserved home that appear on main level of original hardwoods, original wood doors, wide baseboards, and oversized windows with deep ledges along with great views of serene street below. One secondary BR has walk-in closet plus access to wrought iron balcony that offers bird’s-eye view of green tops of mature trees, umbrellas gracing decks and the home’s own fenced-in delightful backyard. Primary BR boasts trio of windows and side window as well, ceiling fan and walk-in closet. Full 2 nd level bath features iconic B & W tile and tub/shower. In addition, the home has a gem of a bonus! There is an in-law suite comprised of BR, full bath, kitchenette, and shared access to W & D; with its own street entrance! This home exudes timeless beauty with chic city living.
