    What's special

    Offer deadline is Wednesday, October 4, 2023 at noon. No showings after that time. Welcome to 561 Southwood Road in Hockessin, Delaware! This property presents a unique opportunity for prospective buyers. Situated on three expansive acres in a highly sought-after location, this solid brick ranch home offers both convenience and tranquility. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by a charming brick exterior, complemented by a detached 2-car garage and a convenient storage shed. The generous lot spans over 3 acres, providing ample room for various outdoor activities and future expansion opportunities. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors throughout most of the house, adding warmth and character to the living spaces. The kitchen and bathroom have been updated. While the remaining areas of the home may benefit from some updating, it is move-in ready and offers a promising canvas for personalization. The spacious kitchen and dining area combo provide an inviting space for gatherings and culinary creations. A large living area and three well-proportioned bedrooms offer comfort and privacy. Additionally, the full, unfinished basement provides abundant storage space or could be transformed into additional living areas to suit your needs. The detached brick garage, capable of accommodating two vehicles, also features a small concrete area underneath one side. Moreover, the property has on-site septic, although New Castle County's sewer connection is obtainable from Southwood Road, offering an added convenience. While conveniently located just minutes away from downtown Hockessin, this residence is nestled in a quiet and desirable neighborhood, providing the perfect balance of accessibility and serenity. It is important to note that the occupying party will require occupancy after settlement, with a rent-back option available until the completion of new construction, anticipated by the end of January 2024. Don't miss your chance to own this remarkable property with endless possibilities. Schedule a showing today and seize the opportunity to make 561 Southwood Road your own.
