About This Home

As of July 2025

Welcome to 157 Delaware Avenue, a spacious and freshly painted residence offering flexible living options—ideal as a single-family home or multi-unit investment opportunity. Formerly configured as a two-apartment complex, this home has been thoughtfully reimagined into a cohesive family space, while still retaining the layout potential for dual living or rental income.

Step onto the charming brick porch, the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or wind down with a sunset view. Inside, the main level features a large living area and a convenient half bath, perfect for entertaining. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and a full bath, offering comfort and privacy.

The rear section of the home includes a second kitchen, expansive living space, two additional bedrooms, walk-in closets, and laundry—making this layout ideal for multi-generational living or tenant accommodations.

Situated on public water and sewer, there's no need to worry about septic or well maintenance. Plus, the location is a standout—proximity to downtown Laurel’s restaurants, parks, ponds, and boat ramps, and just minutes from the convenience of Route 13.

Whether you're looking to settle into a roomy family home or generate rental income, this property delivers on potential and location.
