Some homes give you a great location. Others give you privacy. This one gives you both! Welcome home to this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home, tucked against a peaceful wooded backdrop while keeping you less than 10 minutes from the energy of Main Street in downtown Newark. Step inside to beautiful hardwood floors and a spacious front living room filled with natural light from the oversized window. Continue into the heart of the home, where the kitchen delivers a fresh, bright feel with crisp finishes and modern white appliances. The adjoining dining room features charming built-ins and has been opened to the kitchen, creating an easy flow for everyday living and entertaining. Just beyond, the family room is where this home really turns on the charm. A gas fireplace and gorgeous wood accent wall create a warm focal point, head outside to the deck where you can enjoy the scenery, morning coffee, summer dinners, or simply a little peace and quiet without staring into a neighbor’s backyard. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers its own private bath, while three additional generously sized bedrooms provide plenty of flexibility for family, guests, home offices, or whatever life calls for. The partially finished basement adds even more usable space, along with a dedicated workshop area and additional storage. There's more peace of mind where it counts: both the HVAC system and hot water heater were replaced in 2023, while the kitchen received its complete remodel in 2024. Major updates already handled means you can spend less time worrying about the big-ticket items and more time enjoying your new home. And the location? Minutes from the University of Delaware football stadium, shopping, major highways, and downtown Newark, all while located within the Newark Charter School District. This is the kind of home that checks the boxes buyers keep waiting for. Schedule your private tour before someone else beats you to it.
