Space to grow, room to entertain, and a backyard built for making memories — this Balmoral colonial delivers all three. Originally the builder's model home, with amazing curb appeal, this residence showcases upgraded finishes and a floor plan that just works. The main level opens into a bright kitchen/breakfast nook/family room combination — granite counters, tile backsplash, stainless appliances, and a kitchen island anchor the space, which flows straight out to the three-season sunroom and views of the beautiful backyard pool! The adjoining family room is warm and welcoming, centered on a heavy wood-burning fireplace with a handsome brick surround and views to the yard beyond. Round out the main level with a spacious formal dining room and living room, a versatile bonus room (currently a study, but equally suited as a playroom or homework hub), a practical laundry room, and a powder room. Upstairs, the primary suite impresses with a spa-like bath — a generous doorless shower and double vanity — while three additional, generously sized bedrooms and a nicely updated hall bath provide comfortable space for everyone. The large walk-out lower level is already finished and ready for your vision: think rec room, home gym, media space, or all three. Outside is where this property truly shines. The private, level backyard is an entertainer's dream — an Anthony/Sylvan in-ground pool and hot tub, high end artificial turf, a fire pit, a spacious deck, and even a tiki bar create a true resort-at-home feel, all backing to community-maintained open space for extra privacy. A 2-car garage completes the package. Ideally located minutes from Longwood Gardens and Winterthur, with easy commutes to Wilmington, West Chester, and Kennett Square — this is a rare combination of lifestyle, space, and location. Come make it yours!
