Gleaming hardwood floors span most of the main level—including the foyer, living room, and dining room—as well as the entire upper level. Additional highlights include vinyl replacement windows, a newly updated gas heater and central air system (2024), and tasteful paint colors throughout. The spacious eat-in kitchen features granite countertops with an undermount double sink, white cabinetry, recessed lighting, stainless steel appliances including a built-in microwave, and a bright dining area. Just off the kitchen, the family room offers New wall-to-wall carpeting, a brick fireplace with glass doors, detailed moldings, and a nearby powder room. New upgraded sliders from both the living room and kitchen lead to the rear deck. Upstairs, you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms, including a primary suite with two closets, a dressing area, and a full bath, along with a well-appointed hall bath featuring a double-sink vanity and tiled tub/shower. The finished basement with brand-new carpeting and recessed lighting provides flexible space for a family room, media room, or additional living area. Outdoor living shines with a 50-foot composite deck complete with 2 auto-retractable awnings and vinyl railing—perfect for summer dining, relaxing evenings, and enjoying the Hockessin fireworks. Completing this exceptional home are a main-floor laundry room and a 2-car oversized turned garage. A truly wonderful place to call home.
