The spa-inspired bath features a vaulted ceiling, skylight, and two walk-in closets, completing this exceptional sanctuary. Additional upgrades throughout the home include Pergo flooring, fully renovated bathrooms with custom-tiled showers, fresh interior paint, and an elegant dining room accent wall with classic wainscoting and designer sconces. The unfinished basement presents outstanding potential for future living space while currently providing abundant storage for seasonal and recreational items. A detached one-car garage is conveniently located just beyond Unit 508 (second bay on the right in the first set of garages). Major improvements include an architectural roof installed in 2015, newer HVAC system, and upgraded vinyl thermopane sliding doors and casement windows throughout. Combining exceptional space, architectural character, and an unbeatable location, this extraordinary home offers a rare opportunity to experience the very best of Hockessin living.
