About This Home

As of October 2014

Welcome to a beautiful Fairfield home that will redefine the term "pride of ownership". This home has been lovingly cared for and updated over the years. Inside highlights include but are not limited to, an open floor plan where the kitchen, family room, dining room, and porch combine for a space that is great for entertaining. This home has gleaming hardwood floors, even Brazilian Teak in the kitchen, bay windows (2013), wood works not usually seen in this price range, salvaged flag stone from the DuPont Company in the porch and patio. Outside highlights include a landscaping package, hardscaping, and a yard that show this owner was the head of grounds for the U of D, Delaware Park, and even did work for the DuPonts. Light on rear porch to be replaced.
