About This Home

As of July 2021

Resting on nearly an acre in the sought after community of Merestone, this home provides a private haven to return to at the end of the day. Upon entering the front door of this exquisitely designed residence, guests feel welcomed into a grand retreat that exudes both grace and style. This home, with expansive rear deck and patio, as well as front patio, masterfully connects the indoors and outdoors creating a dazzling year-round retreat. Open floor plan, soaring cathedral ceilings, and gleaming hardwood floors are only some of the desirable features found in this lovely home. Entertaining is a dream in the gourmet kitchen with gorgeous cabinetry, large center island with seating, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including Wolf range and Subzero refrigerator. There is also a butlers pantry with wine refrigerator. The two-story family room is open to the kitchen and features a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, rear staircase, and French doors that lead to a spectacular sun room with views of the expansive deck and yard beyond. Further examination leads to the upper level owner’s suite with two walk-in closets, and full bath with two vanities, oversized soaking tub, and separate shower. One of the additional bedrooms has an en-suite bath while the other two share a hall bath. Indeed, there is no lack of space in this home as it also includes a finished lower level with recreation area, stone fireplace, and full bath. Location convenient to restaurants and shops and major access routes. Just minutes from Hockessin, Newark, Pike Creek, and more! *Hardwood upgrade has been made to the family room, master bedroom, and spare bedroom. *Stucco remediation was completed in 2015 when property was purchased. Inspection and repair documentation available upon request.
