1003 N Franklin St Wilmington, DE 19806

This house offers a truly unique opportunity for just that special buyer. This is a custom designed detached home which was built by the current owner in 1992 and is available now only due to a relocation. The location is unique in that it overlooks the Cool Spring Park and Reservoir with its walking paths, fountain and the Wilmington skyline in the distance. The first floor offers a large bright living room with a gas fireplace, custom built in storage cabinets and book cases. The room opens into the dining area which has French doors to the side deck. The dining area flows directly in what the owner referred to as their sun room but could also be a breakfast room with floor to ceiling windows, skylights and a sliding door on to the deck. The kitchen is large, bright and extremely well laid out. There is a generous amount of working space, counter top eating, a large built in desk and ample storage is provided in all the cabinetry. The counter tops are off set by the beautiful tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances and the gleaming hardwood floors that flow throughout this part of the house. The sliding doors from the sunroom/breakfast room lead to a deck, but even more beautiful, secluded multilevel professionally designed and built gardens. The far end of the lower level of the gardens have a set of steps that lead to a private brick patio and walk way that leads back to the far end of the deck. The rest of the first floor has a powder room and access to the one car garage. The second floor has two nice bedrooms and share a common hall bath. The primary bedroom is a generous size with a walk in closet with custom shelving, and also contains a full size stack washer and dryer. The private bathroom has recently been renovated with a full walk in shower and lighted mirrors over the sinks. The owners suite is connected directly to the home office. The office is large enough for two full size work stations if needed or it could be a cozy den or reading room. The upper level of this home is also unique it that there is a small reading nook or sitting room, a full third bath and a large bonus room. The bonus room is truly a multi purpose room. A playroom, a guest bedroom, an additional home office, let your immigration run wild. The two dormer windows each have a window seat with built in storage.
If you are looking for a house that has been meticulously maintained and cared by its owner since it was built, then look no further.
