Charming and affordable 3BR/2BA Colonial with a fenced back yard. This home features original hardwood flooring throughout, a wood burning fire place in the living room, and the owners had a new roof installed in 2019 that is still under warranty! Spacious family room with built-in entertainment center and wainscoting offers additional space for relaxation or could be used as an office, playroom, or additional bedroom. The owners refreshed the kitchen several years ago with new flooring, counters, cabinet hardware, and most appliances. Enjoy gathering for meals in the formal dining room or entertaining on the covered brick patio which spans the back of the home. The upper floor includes 3 large bedrooms which share access to the hall bath. The owners added a second full bathroom on the main level for added convenience. An unfinished basement provides practical storage space along with the laundry area and a large chest freezer which is included. 2 storage buildings are located at the back of the property near the alley which offers additional parking. Other highlights of this move-in condition home include: public water, public sewer, no HOA fees, and a new water heater that was installed in 2025. Less than an hour to the Delaware Beaches!
