As of August 2021Step back in time in this amazingly well maintained craftsman home on a large 0.33 acre lot located in Claymont that is almost a Century old! The Large front porch is perfect for a porch swing and rockers. As you enter through the cheerful robin egg blue front door into the spacious living room, the first thing you'll notice are the gorgeous hardwood floors, the built-ins flanking the wood burning fireplace, and the beautiful mahogany staircase leading to the second story. The living room flows into the dining room with large windows that flood the room with natural light. From the dining room, step into the updated eat-in kitchen featuring lots of cabinet space, granite counter tops, and new SS appliances (2017). Off of the kitchen is a full bath with updated vanity, tile floor, and shower. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and another remodeled bath. The full, unfinished basement along with the 2-car detached garage and fully floored attic provide ample storage space. The large rear deck is perfect for entertaining with family and friends. Other amenities include newer (2013) double hung windows, roof with 40 yr. shingles, and HVAC unit. There is also a fenced rear yard. This lovely home is located minutes from I-95 and is close to restaurants, shopping, and with-in walking distance to the Claymont Library and Community Center. This home is priced to sell very quickly. Call today to see this fine home!
