...Welcome to this well-maintained single-family ranch home, with an unfinished basement. Coveted corner property, convenient 1-level living, and charming interior in great home in Gwinhurst! Situated on elevated lot with sweeping views of neighboring streets, is this 3BRs/1 full bath tan siding
home that boasts southern exposure and offers bonuses of front sunroom, side-entry garage, and
generous scenic yard. Clusters of thriving hedges anchor edge of property, while center sidewalk carves
through front lawn to delightful brick patio that sits just adjacent to front door. Patio offers perfect
perch for sitting with friends or soaking up sun! Walk through front door into sunroom that is drenched
in sunlight thanks to 3 sets of double windows that invite natural light in and offer splendid almost
panoramic views to the outside, while beige carpeting keeps room cozy. Ideal place for morning coffee,
evening drinks, and everything in between! Step up into trio of sprawling adjoining rooms where one
instantly appreciates warming neutral tones, open and airy living spaces, and a genuine fluid floor plan. Beautiful stone FP in LR/FR is a real gem as it adorns far wall and is flanked by 2 windows. Comfortable
couch is balanced with equally restful chairs and coffee table takes center stage, enhanced by colorful
area rug. Here is the heart of the home and a go-to gathering spots for chats and snacks, game days and
movie nights! From LR/FR there is a seamless blend into on-point contemporary kitchen. Crisp white
cabinets with brushed pewter bar hardware are paired with sleek SS appliances and B & W granite
countertops are highlighted by polished subway tile backsplash. There is plenty of space for baker’s rack
or storage shelves for easy grab-and-go pots and pans or small appliances. Countertop is wide and
cleverly extended to accommodate breakfast bar that is spot-on for tucked-under chairs and meals and
munchies. Nestled between kitchen and LR/FR, yet open to and easily accessible is the enchanting
morning nook. Lovely sunlit room that is bound to be home to dining set and potted plants. Add a chair
and ottoman and one can curl up with latest novel or catch up on emails. The collection of these 3
rooms provides expansive everyday and entertaining space! Yesteryear architectural element of
beautiful arched doorway leads to kitchen back door, which offers access to landing and steps that wrap
to garage. Unfinished lower level of the home includes a Washer and Dryer and offers endless possibilities for a potential finished basement. It is a direct footprint of main level offering abundant square footage to finish for rec/game/play/exercise room to create another level of living space with direct access to garage! Beige carpeted hallway from main rooms leads past roomy linen closet and perk of a walk-up semi-floored attic, great for storage of
seasonal items. 2 secondary carpeted BRs sit to front of home and feature nice-size closets and
windows. Hall bath touts modern vibe with floor-to-ceiling ceramic tile with ceramic glass accent border
tub/shower, ceramic tile floor, and dual-door cabinet vanity for out-of-sight storage. Primary BR is larger
and features an echo of arched doorway in kitchen in an arched alcove for dresser or bureau. Alcove is
framed by 2 substantial closets and windows promise ample natural light. Sprawling fenced-in yard is
level, and lush during the garden seasons. Enjoy blooming plants, robust shrubs, and the quiet signs of
nature at play! Home is nestled in a nice niche in the North Wilmington locale with the street bordering the home is a dead end with no no-thru traffic, is within mins. from Branmar Plaza, easy drive to Rt. 2/I-95, and 25 mins. to Phil. Airport. Wonderful home on W. Holly Oak Rd.!
