Welcome to 913 Kenilworth Ave — a meticulously maintained, classic Colonial-style home in the heart of Newark’s charming Cherry Hill neighborhood! This move-in-ready 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom gem features gleaming hardwood floors throughout and is filled with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere in every room. Designed with flexibility in mind, the layout easily adapts to your lifestyle — whether you're entertaining, working from home, or simply unwinding. Originally a 4-bedroom home, two rooms were thoughtfully combined to create a spacious primary suite and can easily be reconfigured if desired. Both the upstairs full bath and main-level half bath have been tastefully remodeled, complementing the home’s timeless character with modern convenience. Step outside onto the oversized TimberTech composite deck — perfect for outdoor dining or relaxing — and take in the view of the professionally landscaped yard. This true outdoor sanctuary, featured on the 2023 Newark Garden Tour, boasts over 80 varieties of perennials and native plants. It's easy to see the years of care and attention poured into this one-of-a-kind property. The same meticulous upkeep extends indoors, with all major systems regularly serviced and maintained. The waterproofed basement offers clean, dry storage and excellent potential for a workshop or additional living space. Ideally located within walking distance of Handloff Park and just minutes to the University of Delaware, Main Street’s vibrant shops and restaurants, and the Newark Amtrak Station. Bonus: this home falls within the 5-mile radius for Newark Charter School and is only about 10 minutes from I-95 — offering both convenience and community.
