***Motivated Seller***
A Custom Masterpiece in the Prestigious Hillstream Subdivision. Welcome to 12 High Meadow Lane, Newark, DE 19711. Nestled in the highly sought-after Hillstream community, this custom-built architectural gem offers the perfect blend of timeless elegance, comfort, and functionality. Designed with extraordinary attention to detail, this home features 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, 1 half bath, and a wealth of versatile living space across three beautifully finished levels—perfect for families of all sizes.
Step through the grand front entrance into an expansive foyer with soaring ceilings and an open loft area above, setting the tone for the refined craftsmanship throughout. To the left of the entrance, you’ll be drawn into the bright and airy living room where a cathedral ceiling, skylights, and a grand fireplace combine to create a space that’s both impressive and welcoming.

Flowing seamlessly from the living area is a formal dining room that comfortably accommodates large gatherings—an entertainer’s dream for holidays, celebrations, or casual family dinners. On the opposite side of the main level, discover a true chef’s delight: a custom Amish-built kitchen, beautifully updated and thoughtfully designed with high-end cabinetry, modern appliances, a breakfast bar, and a sunny eat-in area ideal for everyday meals or casual brunches.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a cozy family room, complete with a second fireplace that adds warmth and charm to the heart of the home. A lovely morning room offers the perfect retreat for quiet moments with coffee or a good book, with views overlooking the lush backyard.
Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, each offering comfort and style. The owner’s suite is a luxurious haven, featuring an upgraded ensuite bathroom with a jacuzzi tub, glass-enclosed shower, modern cabinetry, and a large walk-in closet. The additional bedrooms are serviced by a full hallway bath, making this level perfect for family living.

But the luxury doesn’t stop there—head down to the fully finished basement, which provides endless possibilities. Whether you envision a man-cave, home theater, game room, or space for large gatherings, this level delivers. It also includes a fifth bedroom with full bathroom for convenience, a dedicated exercise room, and a charming mini wine bar. Double walk-out doors lead to the expansive backyard, making indoor-outdoor entertaining seamless.

Outside, the back patio is a perfect spot for family barbecues and alfresco dining, offering panoramic views of the beautifully landscaped 0.76-acre yard. Mature trees and wide-open space offer privacy and tranquility, with generous distance between neighboring homes—an ideal setting for relaxation or play.
Parking is never a problem with a long driveway that can accommodate over 10 vehicles, in addition to a spacious two-car garage. This home is built for both everyday convenience and memorable entertaining.
Located within the boundaries of Hockessin and Greenville, this address places you in one of Delaware’s most coveted ZIP codes. You’ll enjoy easy access to top-rated public and private schools, premier shopping and dining, and commuting routes to Wilmington, Philadelphia, and beyond.

12 High Meadow Lane is more than a home—it's a lifestyle of comfort, elegance, and privacy in a truly exceptional location. Don’t miss your chance to make this dream property your own. Schedule your private tour today before it’s gone! Interior photos coming soon.
