Set on one of the largest flat lots in the neighborhood, the home features tastefully updated landscaping, a 2-car front-entry garage with modern doors, epoxy-coated floor, pull-down attic storage, and an oversized asphalt driveway that accommodates 5+ cars. Inside, you'll be greeted by a charming covered front porch and a traditional layout that includes a formal living room with folding doors, a formal dining room with custom trim and moulding, and a spacious eat-in kitchen with granite countertops, recessed sink, flat-top stove, hardwood flooring, and included stainless steel appliances. The family room boasts a vaulted ceiling with skylight (2023), exposed wood beams, a marble hearth Mendota gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and French doors leading to a bright sunroom with wood paneling and wainscoting. A main-level powder room and laundry room add convenience, while a chair lift (2019) provides easy access to the upper level—though it's fully removable if desired. Upstairs, you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms, each with a ceiling fan, including a primary suite with a private, fully renovated bathroom. Both full bathrooms have been completely updated with new vanities, flooring, showers, and handicap-assisted comfort-height toilets. The finished lower level offers additional living space and ample storage with endless possibilities. Outside, enjoy a spacious brick paver patio, a large backyard shed, and a serene setting perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Notable updates include a 200 Amp electrical system, newer sump pump, updated windows, Venetian blinds upstairs, SimpliSafe alarm system, and a rubberized flat roof on the rear family room(2023). This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained home in one of Hockessin’s most desirable communities.
