About This Home

As of February 2021

Check out this clean, sharp end unit townhome in the popular Forest Glen section of Pinewoods in Bear, Delaware. This multi level home has been well cared for and is ready for a new owner. The main floor of this home features a spacious eat in kitchen that has an update appliance package, abundant cabinet and counter space, and a beautiful bay window to bring in the morning light. Beyond the kitchen is an open concept dining and living area. The dining space includes bar height seating, as well as a large bow window with a cozy window seat. The living space is generous, and has a sliding door to the rear deck overlooking the oversized rear yard. Upstairs are two large bedrooms and two full bathrooms including the en suite owner bath. The owner bedroom also features a dramatic vaulted ceiling and plenty of windows. The finished lower level gives you lots of options including use as a third bedroom. This space features a full bath, large closet, a row of windows and a true walk out to the rear yard. The yard space is surprising as it features extra width, and has a partially wooded view. The rear yard is completely fenced, and also features a convenient garden shed. Other important updates include the roof (with transferable warranty), and the central air conditioning unit. Forest Glen is conveniently located near shopping, major roadways, schools and parks including Lums Pond State Park, and the Glasgow Regional Park.
