You are invited to tour 101 Commonwealth Avenue in the family-friendly community of Overlook Colony in historic Claymont, Delaware. This beautiful, fully updated home is situated close to shopping, restaurants, the I95 corridor and within easy access of the train station connecting to New York, Philadelphia, and Washington DC. Enter the home through the large enclosed front porch with tile floors to the open floor plan with refinished hardwood floors and brand-new powder room. The beautiful kitchen was completely renovated in 2016 with granite countertops and breakfast bar, stainless appliances, and an enviable amount of storage within the craftsman soft-close cabinetry featuring a pantry and pull-out organizers. The light-filled dining area leads to the rear garden, including a beautiful stone patio, walkway, and detached one-car garage. Back inside, head up the original wood staircase to the spacious hallway leading to the updated full bath and three large bedrooms full of historic character, original hardwood floors, and cheery newer energy efficient windows. The home features a huge basement with laundry, wash tub, ample storage, and a bonus working commode. With a newer roof (2014), replacement Andersen windows (2014), and new (2020) mini-split ductless air conditioning/heater unit, this is a unique opportunity to own a charming older but meticulously updated home in a wonderful community. Don’t miss this one!
