About This Home
As of July 2021These sellers LOVED this house for the efficiency and versatility it afforded them for nearly 40 years of quality living, including a relaxing choice of sun porch, open deck or covered breezeway. The front door enters into a combined living/dining room leading to the updated kitchen with brand new refrigerator and large lighted pantry as well as access to the half bath. Six steps up is the inviting family room (with a slider to the sun porch) and a spacious wheel chair accessible full bath. Up seven more steps is the bedroom level with hardwood floors, a second full bath and a panel door to attic storage. The 20 x 10 main bedroom was formerly an 11 ft corner bedroom and a 9 ft center bedroom (which can readily be restored with a drywall installation). The basement level features a partially finished game/craft room that is flanked by a shop room and the utility/laundry room. The water heater and HVAC units were replaced in 2019 and tilt-in insulated windows were installed in 2003. Seven light fixtures have ceiling fans for additional personal comfort. A low ramp leads to the front door and the Acorn Superglide 120 Stairlift can be reinstalled for step free access to upper level 1 for the fully accessible bath, family room (has space for a bed) and sun porch. The landscaping features colorful blossoms with easy maintenance from the 9 x 7 garden shed. The carport can cover two vehicles and the driveway has space for two additional vehicles. With such a convenient location in New Castle County and a full range of enabling attributes, this is a true FOREVER HOME!
