Wow! This 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath Colonial—the largest model in the sought-after Chesapeake Meadows community within the Appoquinimink School District—sits on a beautifully landscaped .89-acre private lot and is loaded with custom upgrades. A newly paved driveway and Cambridge paver walkway lead to the welcoming 2-story foyer, highlighted by a grand chandelier draped from a custom-painted medallion. Flanked by formal living and dining rooms with hardwood floors, wainscoting, and crown moulding, the foyer opens to a light-filled 2-story family room with a gas fireplace, marble surround, upgraded efficiency fan, and accent lighting tucked behind moulding. French doors lead to a private study, while a dual staircase enhances flow and design. The gourmet kitchen features Corian countertops, center island with pendant lighting, stainless steel appliances, 42” cabinets, ceramic tile backsplash, spacious pantry, and a full-sized built-in desk. A butler’s pantry offers the perfect spot for your coffee station or glassware. The kitchen opens to the outdoor entertaining spaces: a two-level stone and paver patio with extensive landscape lighting, Coleman spa, lush garden beds, and a park-like backyard bordered by mature trees for privacy. Upstairs, a dramatic open catwalk overlooks both the family room and foyer, enhancing the home’s airy design. The luxurious primary suite includes a vaulted ceiling with custom trim, sitting area, spa-like bath with soaking tub, walk-in shower, and dual sinks, plus an extraordinary 21’ x 16’ dressing room with custom cabinetry, deep drawers, and a storage bench.
