    What's special

    This home boasts unparalleled beauty and unique financing options. It qualifies for an exclusive 100% financing program, enabling buyers to purchase with no down payment and waived mortgage insurance requirements, resulting in lower closing costs. Additionally, there is $10,000 in down payment assistance available to cover closing costs. Nestled in a serene cul-de-sac, this enchanting end unit features 2 spacious bedrooms, 1.5 baths, central A/C, a beautiful panoramic view solarium, and an attached 1-car garage. The open-concept layout of the living room and dining room allows ample natural light to fill the space. Just a few steps inside, you are greeted by an elegant solarium that feels like a jewel box, offering panoramic views of a breathtaking garden oasis. This space perfectly blends indoor comfort with outdoor beauty, inviting you to bask in natural light while overlooking a meticulously landscaped backyard adorned with vibrant flowers, majestic trees, and a tranquil shaded sitting area. The second floor boasts two generously sized bedrooms. Initially designed as a 3 bedroom by the builder, the seller opted for 2 oversized rooms which offers the potential to revert back to 3 bedrooms. These existing bedrooms are spacious and feature two large windows that bathe the space in natural light. In the basement, you'll find a workshop area and a jacuzzi room, which can easily be transformed into two additional bedrooms if desired. The backyard is a true paradise, backing up to protected woods offering the ultimate in privacy and serenity. Here, you'll find a charming gazebo perfect for al fresco dining, nestled under the dappled shade of tall, stately trees. A fenced in vegetable garden invites you to harvest your own produce, with plenty of storage in a garden shed and additional enclosed storage under the back deck. This home is not only a peaceful retreat but also a haven for gardening enthusiasts. Some furniture, garden tools, and the contents of the shed are included with the house. However, the seller will decide what items to take before the settlement. This property combines comfort, flexibility, and a gardener's paradise, making it a truly unique find. The local district's high schools, Appoquinimink High School and Middletown High School, are ranked 7th and 9th out of 39 Delaware high schools, respectively. The highly regarded private boarding St. Andrew's School in Middletown is one of the best boarding schools in America, ranked among the top 20 boarding schools for various criteria. This property is a few minutes away from Rt. 301, Rt. 71, Rt. 13, and Rt. 1. The house is very close to ALDI, Wawa, Appoquinimink Library, W. Main Street, and Middletown Diner.
