Description

26 Overlook Ave doesn't play by ranch rules. Tucked on one of the largest private lots in the community, over a third of an acre in the sought-after Red Clay School District, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath ranch gives you 1,600 square feet that actually lives larger than the numbers suggest The unique layout of the home. You have options! Utilize the whole side of the house that can work like a private suite. It has its own rear entrance, a true walk-in closet, custom built-in shelving, and a bonus nook that is already set up as a quiet home office. OR - Use it as a master retreat, guest suite, in-law space, or a studio that clients never have to walk through your home to reach. The everyday flow. The living areas are sun-drenched and open, but not echoey. The eat-in kitchen anchors everything, and right beside it is a large mud and laundry room that catches coats, boots, beach gear, and the chaos before it hits the main house. The backyard that sells itself. Step out to a rear deck that drops to a paver patio and fire pit, all wrapped in a deep, fully fenced yard. It's big enough for summer barbecues, a dog sprinting laps, a garden, or just a quiet evening with the trees as your backdrop. You feel tucked away, but you're minutes from parks, shopping, top-rated Red Clay schools, and 95/202 commuter routes. The garage everyone wants. Detached, oversized, with a new roof and new siding. Park two cars or use the space for a workshop, home gym, small business setup, or serious storage. On a lot this size, you don't have to choose. The quick facts • Address: 26 Overlook Ave, Wilmington, DE 19808 • Bed/Bath: 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths • Size/Lot: ∼1,600 sq ft on 0.34+ acre • Style: Single-level ranch • District: Red Clay School District This is the rare ranch that gives first-time buyers room to grow and move-up buyers room to breathe, without a single stair to climb.
