About This Home
As of March 2026Located within an easy drive of Newark, University of Delaware, Maryland, I-95 and 896, this split level home boasts a FENCED IN BACKYARD and an EXPANDED MAINTENANCE FREE DECK. But let's not stop there, the house itself is in excellent condition featuring fresh paint and NEWLY REFINISHED HARDWOOD FLOORS throughout. From the moment you enter, you will appreciate the small entry area with coat closet open to the formal living room which has easy access to the formal dining room and kitchen just beyond. From the formal dining room, you have access to the fenced in back yard and the lovely maintenance free deck. As this is a split level home, the floors are spaced half a floor apart from each other. The fourth bedroom is located a half a floor down from the main living area; it can be used and it is currently set up as a family room. Adjacent to that bedroom/family room is the unfinished utility room space which has the washer and dryer. There is a crawl space under the main living room accessed from the fourth bedroom or the utility room. A half a floor up from the main living is the primary bedroom and a generously sized second bedroom and the full bathroom with a linen closet in the hall. Half a floor up from that is the third bedroom with a generously sized storage closet. There is also plenty of space in the eaves if you want to expand the bedroom and/or your storage. The roof is 4 years old and the HVAC is 6 years old and the windows have been replaced. Put this property on your tour today. Once you see it you will want to call it home.
