About This Home
As of October 2019Spectacular home in Hockessin! Step inside this beautiful home and you will appreciate how well it has been meticulously maintained. The gleaming hardwood floors shine throughout the main floor. There is a very open feel to the overall floor plan with the large living room flowing into the dining room. In the living room there are sliding glass doors to a front deck. The eat-in kitchen has updated stainless appliances, a new light fixture and a full pantry. The dining room has a new chandelier and sliding doors to a large Sunroom off the back of the home. The owner's bedroom has its own private, updated bath. The other two bathrooms in the home have been updated as well. Two more good sized bedrooms complete the main floor and a fourth bedroom is on the lower level. Need a place to get away? A cozy family room with fireplace is on the lower level and the laundry room is located nearby. There is a 2 car oversized garage and plenty of room for storage in the attic with easy access using new pull down stairs. Newer Pella windows and slider doors, newer Trane heater, and a newer hot water heater all make this home move-in ready. A great backyard is perfect for outdoor enjoyment. Walk to the park in the community or enjoy leisure time at nearby Swift Park or the Hockessin Library. Located in Red Clay School District, this home feeds to the new Cooke Elementary School. The homeowners are also offering a One Year Home Warranty for the Buyers added peace of mind. Truly a gem to see.
