First time on the market, this well maintained, Cape Cod-style, brick-front home in Delaware City is ready for a new owner. Custom built in 1974 for the original owner's forever/retirement home, this property has been owned and cared for by individuals from one family for 50+ years. Offering both formal and casual spaces; generously sized rooms; a private, main level primary bedroom wing; and plenty of openness from the kitchen to den and beyond; it will accomodate many buyer's wants and needs. Large windows bring in plenty of natural, morning light to the living room, which is currently used as an office. Sunlight drenches the rear portion of the house, the covered porch and backyard in the afternoon. Solid construction is evident throughout; and some rooms have been recently updated with fresh paint. New carpet has been laid throughout the upper level. The home is absolutely move-in ready, and in great condition for the next steward to enhance as they may see fit. The home boasts ample storage on all levels including bedrooms with double closets, an under the eaves, walk-in attic, multiple linen closets, unfinished basement space and an oversized, attached garage to park your cars, toys and/or use as a workshop ( full-width screening for garage bay door and portable air conditioner included). The expanded driveway can easily accommodate a handful of vehicles. The level, fenced-in yard is easy to maintain, and is just large enough for little ones to stretch their legs. Gardeners will appreciate the large, handy utility shed. This home is situated on a quiet, small town block within an easy stroll to dining, town meeting halls, services, parks, playgrounds, and the Delaware CIty marina. The drive to schools K - 8 is a breeze! For the buyer looking for one level living options, or a solid foundation in a cool, small town to plant roots and grow, put 304 Hamilton Street on your list! Note: while much of Delaware City lies within FEMA's designated AE flood zone, this property does not, therefore does not require flood insurance.
