Description

Adorable, Affordable and Available is the best way to describe 229 Blue Hen Road! This cute ranch home just underwent a full remodel. This includes EVERYTHING from top to bottom. Too much to list! As you pull up you will notice that this home is not like the rest. A freshly poured concrete driveway and sidewalk lead to the beautiful porch that is waiting to greet you as you walk up. Let's head inside and take a look around at the beautiful wood LVP flooring that contrasts the freshly painted walls...Adorable, Affordable and Available is the best way to describe 229 Blue Hen Road! This cute ranch home just underwent a full remodel. This includes EVERYTHING from top to bottom. Too much to list! As you pull up you will notice that this home is not like the rest. A freshly poured concrete driveway and sidewalk lead to the beautiful porch that is waiting to greet you as you walk up. Let's head inside and take a look around at the beautiful wood LVP flooring that contrasts the freshly painted walls and is highlighted by the recessed lighting throughout. As we make our way to the brand new kitchen you will notice the fresh twist on the granite countertops that add so much depth and is highlighted by the custom undermount cabinet lighting. Let's make our way down the hallway where you will notice a utility area that houses the new water heater, laundry area and access to your backyard. Next up is the freshly renovated bathroom where the owner really stepped up with a fresh modern look that is ready for the new owners. In addition to all of this we have 3 bedrooms that have new carpeting that matches the new flooring perfectly. As you all know this home will not last!
