Pinch me, am I dreaming? Where else can you find a property like this? Two adjoining lots, privately set far back off the road, surrounded by a natural barrier of trees. There are so many wonderful opportunities this property offers, it would take a book to write them all. But let us try to paint a picture. This adorable ranch has been owned by one family since its inception. It had the original roof removed a while back,and replaced with a full architectural shingle roof, along with high quality gutter guards. Looking for even more peace of mind ? They also had the original single pane windows removed, and had DOUBLE HUNG, vinyl replacement windows installed. We are not done yet. Central AC was added too. Along with the convenience of both public sewer and water. No septic systems to pump out or wells to deal with here! The house has the original, real, solid hardwood flooring, just begging to be sanded and stained any color the new owner chooses. The hardwood runs throughout the entire house, aside from both full tiled bathrooms, and the kitchen, which was updated ,and features plank flooring, replacement solid surface counters with integrated sink, and stainless appliances. A ranch from this era, that has a true owners suite with full bathroom, is often hard to find. There is a partial basement, which was partially finished long ago. The den right off of the kitchen could make for a great new laundry room, instead of walking into the basement for washer and dryer access. Now for the gem of this sale: the land. My oh my is this a truly stunning lot. Nestled far back off the road, with its own private asphalt driveway, it has privacy galore. The land was farmed many a time, so the soil is ripe for vegetation, or just leave it as it is, and enjoy the serenity of it all. The back and sides of the property are surrounded by very large trees,making for a wonderful natural barrier. Note that the properly is cleared, has no wetlands, and, there are no chicken farms nearby! Set back from the house is an old barn, a nice bonus, which has doors large enough to pull a tractor in. It has 3 stalls, and room for multiple cars, or farm equipment. Electric has already been installed out to the barn, so you could put a pole building up, or even renovate the existing barn and bring it back to its original glory. The house was and certainly could be, lived in just the way it is, but the options are endless. Anything from simple cosmetic upgrades, to a more intensive renovation for a modern farmhouse theme, all the way up to the possibilities of perhaps adding another home. It is exciting to think about just how many different routes could be taken with this incredible property. Great location, with this much land, yet minutes from the Air base with convenient access to shopping and medical facilities. Only a short walk to the Magnolia Restaurant, Fire Company and elementary school. Award winning CR school district. Just a short drive to the Delaware beaches. Low taxes! This is a rare find! The owner grew up in this property, and is thrilled for someone else to put their touches on it, and make their own memories here.
