About This Home

As of December 2024

The home features over two acres of lush land (416 ft wide - 528 ft deep) situated on a landscaped level lot with 2 garages for 5 cars! Enter the home into the grand foyer with a raised ceiling and lots of natural light. This wonderfully built 4 BR, 2-1/2 BA brick front home is rarely available in popular Chesapeake Meadow! The original owner has lovingly maintained this fine property since purchasing it brand new in 1998. There are lots of amenities on the first floor including a large great room with 17 ft high ceilings. The room is filled with light from windows surrounding the wood-burning fireplace. The spacious first-floor bedroom suite has a large walk-in closet, double vanities, a linen closet, a jetted tub, and a stall shower. The kitchen features lots of cabinet space, a center island with stools along with a breakfast nook overlooking the rear yard. Off of the kitchen is the private dining room complete with a chandelier.
Upstairs are three well-appointed bedrooms along with a full bath.

Outside features a detached workshop that is presently being used as an additional three car garage.
Great if you’re into mechanics or need extra garage space. The home also has an attached two-car garage with inside access for convenience. The large driveway can easily fit 8-10 cars.
The property has energy-efficient natural gas heating and public water. The new roof was replaced in 2020. The roomy basement comes complete with high ceilings; concrete walls complete with drainage system and sump pump with battery backup.
Located in the top-rated Appoquinimink School District The community is minutes to all the conveniences that Middletown offers and to the shopping, dining, and recreations that Chesapeake City and the surrounding areas offer and not far from Delaware's most popular beaches. The seller is leaving lots of generous inclusions. Seller is offering $5,000 towards buyers closing costs with an acceptable offer!
