Nestled in Newark’s well-established Huntington neighborhood, this updated 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath, 2-car garage home makes a great first impression with a lovely front garden and a front porch that’s the perfect spot for a little bistro table and your morning coffee.
Inside, the living room delivers hardwood floors, bay windows, chair railings, and a gas fireplace (all the cozy, none of the firewood hauling). The floor plan flows into the dining room and updated kitchen, where a breakfast bar makes the perfect spot for quick meals, homework, or chatting with the cook. The kitchen opens to the sun-filled family room, where everyone will inevitably end up hanging out. Sliding glass doors lead to a spacious deck overlooking the flat, fully fenced backyard, ready for barbecues, gardening, or a dog who needs room to do zoomies.
Upstairs, the primary suite is your own little spa with a double vanity, soaking tub, frameless shower, and yes, heated floors. Once you’ve had warm toes on a January morning, there’s no going back. Three more bedrooms and an updated hall bath round out the level. Downstairs, the full basement is a blank canvas with ample storage and plenty of future finishing potential. It also houses the laundry with an Energy Star washer and dryer.
Now for the part that doesn’t photograph well but matters most: the big-ticket items have all been updated in recent years, so you won’t be budgeting for a new HVAC system anytime soon. Roof (2018/2024), high-efficiency HVAC (2023), windows (2024/2025), water heater (2018), plus nice stainless steel appliances. Even better, a pre-listing inspection has been completed and repairs made. This is a solid home that will give you peace of mind for years to come.
You’re minutes from the University of Delaware and downtown Newark’s shops and restaurants, Glasgow Park and Lums Pond State Park, and tax-free shopping at People’s Plaza and Christiana Mall, with quick access to Route 40, I-95, Route 1, and the Maryland line. Philadelphia, Baltimore, and the beaches are all within reach too. Homes like this don’t stick around long, so schedule your showing today!
