Welcome to this fabulous home in the heart of Newark, perfectly situated at the top of the cul-de-sac with easy access to the University of Delaware, Christiana Hospital, and excellent nearby schools. Surrounded by nature, this location offers a unique balance of convenience and outdoor adventure. Only 6 houses away, the Redd Park Trail leads directly to the Newark Reservoir, while Middle Run Natural Area and White Clay Creek State Park provide endless opportunities for hiking, biking, and exploration. While the location is unbeatable, the home itself is just as impressive. Recently refreshed with neutral paint throughout, it features stunning, professionally refinished hardwood floors on the entire main living level. Designed with expanded square footage, this home offers exceptional room sizes, particularly in the spacious living and dining rooms and upstairs bedrooms. The heart of the home is the custom-designed kitchen, showcasing rich cherry wood cabinets with an array of thoughtful features, including multiple pull-out spice and tray cabinets, appliance cabinets, deep drawers with insets, produce baskets, and hidden toe-kick drawers. The trash pull out cabinet can be turned back into the dishwasher. A farmhouse sink adds charm, while the impressive cooking grotto takes center stage with a five-burner gas range, two electric ovens, an exterior-vented hood, and a beautifully tiled backsplash. The kitchen also boasts two teak-topped islands that double the workspace and a built-in glass-front display pantry, adding both function and style. Perfectly positioned between the dining and family rooms, this open-concept kitchen is ideal for entertaining. The inviting family room features a cozy brick fireplace flanked by built-in cabinetry and a sliding door leading to the expansive rear patio, which spans the entire length of the home. Outside, the nearly half-acre, tiered yard is a gardener’s dream, complete with fruit-bearing cherry tree, two Asian pear trees & a blueberry bush. A fenced-in hosta garden, wisteria-covered arbors, and other lush plantings provide a breathtaking setting throughout the spring and summer. The fully fenced yard is a private retreat, and the grass will soon flourish again now that the seller’s dogs have relocated to their new yard. Upstairs, the generously sized bedrooms feature luxury vinyl plank flooring and ample closet space. The attractive Owner’s Bedroom & Bathroom have a walk-in cedar closet, dual sink vanity and walk-in shower. The second-floor laundry room is a full-sized space with built-in cabinetry, and an oversized hallway closet provides even more storage. A two-story overlook fills the home with natural light, enhancing the open and airy feel. This home perfectly blends comfort, convenience, space, and a connection to nature, offering an unparalleled living experience where you can create a lifetime of happiness and memories. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity—schedule your tour today! This home is also within the Newark Charter School 5-mile Radius. Room measurements and square footage listed are estimates and should be verified by Buyer. An AHS Home Warranty is provided by Seller for peace of mind.
