    What's special

    This ranch at 655 Montgomery Woods in Hockessin is a delightful and inviting home, especially after its extensive renovations. The property boasts a new roof, an updated kitchen with modern appliances, new LVP flooring and a fresh coat of paint in neutral tones. The spacious deck with multiple sliding glass doors is a perfect spot to enjoy the serene view of the very private backyard. The landscaping has also been refreshed, enhancing the home’s curb appeal. There is a paved circle at the front of the house that provides convenient parking for guests. As you enter the front door, there is a flex room with a fireplace offering versatility, serving as either a cozy living room or functional office space. The heart of the home is the open concept dining room, kitchen and family room that flow from one to the other which will allow entertaining either casual or large groups comfortably. The kitchen is well-equipped with ample counter space, including an island with a gas cooktop with retractable vent system and plenty of cabinets for storage. The door to access the attached garage is also in the kitchen so it is an easy trip to bring in the groceries! The extra-large family room is a highlight, with its expansive views of the private backyard through oversized windows and a skylight that floods the room with natural light. It also has a second fireplace with an insert that provides substantial heat to the house during the winter months. The space opens onto the enormous composite deck, which spans the back of the house and offers numerous seating options to enjoy the tranquil outdoor setting. The primary suite is a luxurious retreat, offering a flexible space that could serve as a dressing room or an office, and a beautifully upgraded bathroom with a tiled floor and shower. And that heated bathroom floor! A luxurious touch for those chilly mornings. There are also 2 additional nicely sized bedrooms and an upgraded hall bath that completes the main level. The permitted lower level adds even more living space, with another bedroom and a full bathroom. and is accessed from a door in the kitchen with stairs that were redone in 2011. There are lower level sliding glass doors that open up to the back yard and patio. There is also a storage room on the back of the house that is accessed through a locked door for all your gardening needs as well. A paved walkway, leads to the back yard, which has had numerous trees removed to provide more space while maintaining privacy with a line of trees. It is also close to Hockessin and all it has to offer. This home offers a perfect blend of comfort, style, and functionality, making it a desirable choice for those seeking a peaceful home in Hockessin. Update: The sewer field project has been approved by DNREC and will be completed prior to settlement. Three trees along the driveway will be removed by the seller in the next few weeks.
