About This Home

As of September 2022

Country Living at its best! Welcome home to 702 Blackbird Forest! Curb appeal abounds this beautiful 4bedroom, 2.5bath Colonial Home that's situated on a picturesque acre. It's been professionally hardscaped and landscaped including a custom designed paver stone walk way that leads to the front door. The first and second level of the home were recently painted and new carpet installed. The first level has a formal living room that leads to the formal dinning that's adorned with chair railing and crown moulding, a family room with a fan and a brick wood burning fireplace & mantle, powder room, coat closet and a large laundry room with shelving that offers direct access to the patio & another access to the attached 2 Car Garage. The eat-in kitchen boast of ample cabinets & counter space, back splash, double sinks that overlooks the fenced in rear yard, electric range and a refrigerator with ice maker. Let's talk about outdoor entertaining...from the kitchen walk through the french doors with internal mini blinds between the glass to hardscape steps that leads to a large paver stone patio with retention walls for those fun summer days. Enjoy watching the water cascade down the backyard waterfall fountain/pond or dive in the in-ground gunite pool for a swim. This gorgeous yard is complete with a large pole barn that has a screened-in porch, changing room, it's own dedicated 100 amp circuit breaker, ceiling fans and 3 entry points, one being a garage door . Back in the home and upstairs you'll find a main bedroom with crown moulding, a walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom. The other 3 well sized bedrooms share a hallway bathroom with a linen closet and a large hallway linen closet. The hidden gem in this home is the basement (space not included in square footage) with a bilco door, recess lights and some shelving. This area could easily be properly finished to add to the square footage of the home or simply used for storage. You own the home...you own this space! So let your imagination run wild. This beauty is in an ideal location...just off Rt 1 with easy access commute to Wilmington & Dover and 45 minutes from Delaware Beaches and it also has a generator that feeds 50% of the home. This home is a MUST SEE! Schedule your tour today! Note: Square footage & room dimensions are approximated.
