About This Home

As of August 2016

Quiet country living in a neighborhood setting with no HOA fees, minimal deed restrictions, and situated in the award-winning Appoquinimink School District. This 4BR/2BA home sits on a spacious 1 acre lot in the popular Meadow Vista II neighborhood of Townsend, just minutes from downtown Middletown and all of the amenities it has to offer. This home is move-in ready and boasts many upgrades, including a 12' x 35' great room and mud room addition, new roof, and patio in 2001, central air in 2004, and a kitchen remodel in 2006. The open floor plan is great for entertaining family and friends and holding large gatherings around the holidays. The L-shaped kitchen has upgraded cabinets, a peninsula countertop, and 2 pantry/storage closets and, if that's not enough, there's even more closet storage and a 2nd refrigerator in the nearby mud room addition. The mud room could easily accommodate another bathroom, if desired. The great room was outfitted with ceiling fans, recessed lighting and warm-toned laminate flooring. On the upper level are 3 nice-sized bedrooms, including a master bedroom with a private bath, and two other bedrooms which share a hall bath. Storage abounds in the partially floored attic with pull-down access stairs. The lower level is configured as a large rec room/game room with built-in shelving and plenty of natural light. There's also a 4th bedroom which can be used as a stand-alone office or music room. The utility room/laundry room on the lower level and the mud room on the main level provide access to an expansive backyard. This outdoor living space is built for having fun, whether you're grilling out on the large patio, relaxing under a shade tree, sitting around an evening campfire or looking to get your game on at the included volleyball net, you have lots of options to enjoy the great outdoors, and did I mention, this property is within minutes of Blackbird State Forest, youth sports complexes and community/town parks. There's also a fully equipped workshop with electric and air conditioning for tackling those home projects or hobbies. Sellers offering a 1-year HSA Home Warranty. This is truly a one-of-a-kind property that's been lovingly maintained and ready for new owners. Make this your new home today?it won't last long!
