About This Home

As of January 2025

Nestled on a sprawling 1.10-acre lot with delightful landscaping in the desirable community of Pleasanton Acres, just a short drive from the bustling city of Dover and all its amenities, you'll find 73 Pleasanton Dr.—a timeless colonial-style home brimming with potential. The covered front entry welcomes you into a gracious foyer that flows seamlessly into the heart of this traditional colonial: the expansive main living area. The generous eat-in kitchen is a chef’s dream, offering a perfect blend of functionality and style, ideal for preparing sumptuous meals. Serve your culinary creations at the casual breakfast bar or in the light-filled breakfast nook, further enhanced by skylights and three walls of windows showcasing picturesque views of the surrounding nature. Enjoy your morning coffee in this serene space, or open the double atrium doors to the outdoors and embrace seamless indoor-outdoor living. Adjacent to the kitchen, the spacious family room is handsomely appointed with a brick-front fireplace flanked by elegant, floor-to-ceiling built-in bookcases, creating a cozy ambiance for gatherings. This inviting space also opens to the outdoor living area, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor entertaining. The main level also features a formal dining room, perfect for hosting dinner parties, and a formal living room that offers a welcoming space for family and friends to gather. A convenient powder room for guests, a laundry room with additional cabinetry, and interior access to the oversized two-car garage complete the main level. Upstairs, the grand primary bedroom suite is a true retreat, featuring a spacious layout with bump-out sitting areas, a walk-in closet, and an ensuite bathroom with a beautifully tiled walk-in shower and bench. Three additional guest bedrooms are also located on this level, one with its own ensuite bathroom, along with a hall bath and a versatile bonus gathering space at the center of it all. The basement level, currently unfinished, offers exceptional potential for expansion, allowing you to tailor the space to suit your needs—be it a home theater, gym, or additional living quarters. The outdoor living space is thoughtfully enclosed by a vinyl privacy fence, providing a secure area for children and pets to play, while also offering a tranquil setting to enjoy the expansive property. Recent Update: Brand New Septic System will be installed.
