Rare Opportunity – 4-Bedroom Home with Expansive Heated Garage and Workshop on Nearly One Acre

Nestled on just under one acre and backing up to a peaceful wooded area, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom property presents a rare combination of privacy, versatility, and location—all without HOA restrictions. Situated just minutes from I-95, it offers convenient access to Philadelphia, Baltimore, and the many amenities of Newark, Delaware.

Inside, the home features a functional layout with an open kitchen that flows into the dining area, creating an ideal setting for everyday meals and casual entertaining. The primary bedroom is located on the main level, complete with a full bathroom and laundry room, offering the option for convenient one-level living. The family room is bright and comfortable, enhanced by a large picture window that fills the space with natural light.

What truly sets this property apart is the impressive 30x40 detached, heated garage—a rare find in today’s market. This expansive structure includes a workshop area, a car lift that conveys with the home, and two attached 24x14 storage units offering ample space for tools, equipment, or hobby materials. The second floor of the garage serves as a recreational bonus, complete with a billiard table that also conveys, making it ideal for leisure or hosting.

A separate shed adds even more storage flexibility. The backyard offers both open and wooded space, providing privacy and plenty of room for outdoor activities, gardening, or future customization.

The home is also equipped with solar panels, offering increased energy efficiency and reduced utility costs over time.

With its rare combination of livable space, expansive workshop capabilities, and a location just minutes from major commuting routes, this property presents a unique opportunity for buyers seeking comfort, utility, and freedom from HOA restrictions.
