About This Home

As of May 2018

Wait until you see how much living space and great views this Expanded Ranch house has! Only one owner and what a Terrific Home for a family. Rarely available in Brookside, this house has 4 Bedrooms and 2 Full Baths and is perfect for a growing family or anyone looking for one level living. Entire house has been freshly painted in today's neutral colors, and brand new carpeting installed throughout. The spacious Living Room with fireplace is open to the Dining area adjacent to the Kitchen, and there are walls of windows for gorgeous views of the backyard and UD-owned open space behind the home. The huge Family Room Addition offers additional space for relaxing and entertaining, and space for another table for dining, homework, and games. There are multiple storage areas including extra closets, storage room off the kitchen, and an outdoor shed. You'll love the private fenced-in backyard accessed by doors from both the kitchen and the living room for a great outdoor-indoor flow. Plenty of parking in the double carport and level driveway. Great Newark Location close to I-95, University of Delaware, numerous employers, shopping, and recreation areas. Don't miss this one!
