Description
This custom-built 1970s home, rich with character, sits on almost 1 acre & offers spacious living and an exceptional outdoor connection. The generous main level features a large living room and a formal dining room, ideal for entertaining. A unique double-sided, wood-burning fireplace provides warmth and ambiance to both the living room and the adjacent family room, which is accented with built-in cabinets. French doors from the family room lead out to a large patio, perfect for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The large, custom kitchen includes a dedicated eating area and a charming bow window offering serene views of the park-like backyard. The residence boasts four bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The main bedroom suite is a true retreat, featuring a walk-in closet, a full private bathroom, and French doors that open directly onto a private patio area. The vast basement, which spans the full footprint of the house, presents endless possibilities for customization into an additional family room, game room, or play area, and also includes its own wood-burning fireplace. A significant update includes professional waterproofing with a transferrable warranty, ensuring peace of mind. Exterior amenities are equally impressive with a two-car garage and a substantial driveway capable of accommodating up to six additional vehicles. This charming home is ready for a new owner to apply a little TLC and updating to make it their own. Great Newark location & Appoquinimink School District!
