About This Home
Built in 2020, this beautifully designed home is Lennar’s sought-after Georgetown model, located in the desirable Colony at Summit Bridge East community within the Appoquinimink School District. Set on a premium lot backing to open community space, the property offers a private backyard retreat that truly stands out. The home has been meticulously cared for and showcases an open, light-filled layout with energy-efficient systems, three-zone HVAC, upgraded engineered hardwood flooring on the main level, and nine-foot ceilings throughout. The first floor welcomes you with a spacious foyer and flows into a gourmet kitchen with a breakfast area, formal dining room, and a large great room centered around a gas fireplace. Also on the main level are a powder room, a private office or study, and access to the two-car garage via a large mudroom. The kitchen is a showpiece, featuring 42-inch cabinetry, granite countertops with an over-sized island, gas cooking, a wall oven, and stainless steel appliances. Step outside from the kitchen to experience a true backyard oasis, an expansive composite deck with a screened gazebo, ambient lighting, a sunken hot tub beneath a pergola, and exceptional privacy. Upstairs, you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms, including two with private en suites, along with three full bathrooms, a loft ideal for studying or relaxing, and a conveniently located laundry room. The primary suite offers two large closets and a spa-like bathroom with dual granite vanities and a private water closet. The finished lower level provides even more living space with a walk-up to the backyard, a massive recreation area, a full bathroom, ample storage, and flexibility for an additional bedroom or home gym. Ideally located just off Route 896 and minutes from I-95, this home is close to Lums Pond State Park, White Clay Creek State Park, Christiana Mall, and a wide range of shopping and dining options all while still being part of the highly regarded Appoquinimink School District.
