Just 3 miles to the University of Delaware, 4 miles to I95 on ramp, extremely well taken care of home in a quiet community away from all the congestion and noise, on close to a half acre wooded lot this 1900 sq.ft. house has 2 nice size bedrooms on the lower floor (master and smaller bedroom next to it) and 2 bedrooms on the second level, a full bath on each floor. Eat in kitchen holds 4 people comfortably, dark wood cabinets, dish washer, large sink and counter with an adjoining nice 12x12 porch with additional seating or a sitting area for reading a good book while looking out the bay window at the wildlife in the woods (nice sky lights for some sun too). When the leaves are on it is kind of hard to see the neighbors which is nice. A separate family room (real fireplace) for those who want to watch TV as well as the traditional formal living room and formal dining room which is a nice entertaining space. Full basement with plenty of room for storage on the built in shelves and room for a pool table and craw space with additional storage. A full size 2 car garage, each with it's own door opener, nice built in work bench and shelving. Nice long driveway can fit 6 additional cars on holidays. Mature trees and landscaping already in place. Very quiet neighborhood with a country setting feel yet just 2 miles to the grocery store and shops. House will be sold furnished (with a few nice antiques as a gift to the new owners) or unfurnished (your choice) and AS IS with no repairs to be done by 88 year old parents (original owners by the way). Includes: Refrigerator, Washer, Dryer, Microwave, Water Treatment System, Alarm System, Stove (all in good working condition and fairly new). Flooring is hard wood in family room, vinyl in the kitchen, carpet in bedrooms. Roof is approximately 14 years old and in excellent condition. County water and sewer. This is a For Sale By Owner with the contract can be handled by a real estate lawyer and the local honest title company in Elkton or a licensed Real Estate Agent. Any Real Estate Agent for the buyers who show the house and bring us to a completed contract and sale and successful settlement will get a fixed $3,500 at the closing (we can discuss the method of payment i.e. check, zelle, Benjamin Franklins). Any Real Estate Agent that calls me asking for the listing should leave their listing charge (percentage) as well as name and phone number BUT will not get a call back immediately as we do not have to rush to sell this house and just like you would like to save money and use the saved money to take care of my parents needs long term. The house will be staged by May 19th, 2022 and can be shown at any time after that by a Licensed Real Estate Agent (7 days a week but reasonable hours please 7:30am to 7:30pm) as my parents have already been relocated. If you are not a Real Estate Agent i.e. a buyer we will have to set a date and time that works for us so please give us 2 days notice. After staging I will post additional pictures here on zillow. We will place a Lock Box on the front door with the code available to my neighbor/nephew and Real Estate Agents that can be verified as legitimate licensed agents. Since I grew up in this house it is near and dear to my heart with many fond memories there but it may need to be tailored to the new buyers design needs which is why we have priced it at the lower $171 per square foot range (based on recent sales here on zillow) and of course will consider reasonable offers. If you are going to make a ridiculous offer expect to get a ridiculous response as we do not have to rush to sell this house. We can have a quick settlement and have you enjoying this house like our family did for close to 44 years. Thank you for your understanding Doug Tilghman
