About This Home
As of May 2026Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home in the heart of Townsend, just minutes from major shopping and dining in Middletown and located in the Appoquinimink School District. Situated on an oversized, fully fenced lot, the private backyard is surrounded by mature trees and designed for both relaxation and play. Enjoy outdoor living on the spacious deck, complete with charming string lights perfect for entertaining or unwinding in the evenings. A large shed provides additional storage, and there’s plenty of space to run and play. The inviting front porch features a cozy swing for two, adding to the home’s curb appeal, while the expansive driveway easily accommodates four or more vehicles. Spring blooms and thoughtfully maintained landscaping create a warm welcome. Inside, this historic home, free of historic registry restrictions, has been tastefully updated to suit today’s lifestyle. The main level offers a convenient drop zone for coats and shoes, a laundry room, half bath, and an open concept layout with a spacious kitchen featuring abundant cabinet and counter space. The dining and living areas are anchored by a stunning fireplace, and luxury vinyl flooring runs throughout the main living space. A versatile bonus room on this level is currently used as an office but could easily serve as a game room, craft room, or additional living space. The second floor includes three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath. The third floor is truly a showstopper, formerly attic space, now transformed into a spacious owner’s suite featuring a large window with beautiful sunset views, a full bath with heated tile floors, and an oversized walk in closet. The addition of a heat pump and central air during the third floor renovation ensures year round comfort. Lovingly maintained by the same owners for over 25 years, this home reflects pride of ownership throughout. Updates include a new natural gas hot water heater (March 2026), the fridge, dishwasher and microwave all replaced within the last year.
