About This Home

As of February 2026

Welcome to 1056 Grears Corner Rd — a rare opportunity in Townsend and the highly sought-after Appoquinimink School District! This charming 2-bed, 1-bath home sits on a spacious 0.58-acre lot with NO HOA, giving you the freedom to park your RV, boat, trailers, or work vehicles with ease. It’s the perfect opportunity for first-time homebuyers or anyone looking to downsize without sacrificing space or flexibility. Step inside to a beautifully updated interior featuring a remodeled kitchen complete with granite countertops, freshly painted cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. An inviting eat-in kitchen flows into a large family/living room, offering plenty of space to relax, entertain, or unwind after a long day. Two generously sized bedrooms, a full bath, and a separate laundry room complete the comfortable, single-level layout. This home is move-in ready with valuable upgrades including an owned water softener system, and peace of mind knowing the septic system was just pumped and passed inspection with flying colors. Outside, the oversized lot offers endless possibilities—plus a large storage shed and an additional run-in shed, perfect for tools, equipment, hobbies, or extra storage. Properties like this don’t come around often—affordable, updated, with land, freedom, and a top-tier school district. Start the new year off right
