About this home

Enjoy the peace and quiet with a pastoral view of a Christina Creek tributary. The expanded driveway allows for plenty of parking and/or a horse trailer. The 1,963 sqft house has 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths and sits on an acre of mostly open land. There is a winding walk-way up to the house and front deck, bordered by azaleas, rhododendrons and a large bed of seasonal flowers. The front door opens to a south-facing sunroom stretching across the entire front of the house. Plenty of room for a kitchen table at one end and sitting area on the other. One can then step up through arched doorways into the kitchen or go directly into the living room with wood floors. This floor also has a bedroom/office and a large, updated full bath. The laundry room and walk-in pantry are off the kitchen. Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms, ample storage and another updated full bath. The lower level is unfinished and with garage door access and plenty of space for a workshop or recreation room. Located just around the corner from the top-rated, farm-to-table The Haven Social restaurant on Route 896, the White Clay Creek Preserve (2 miles) which connects to the DE White Clay Stare Park (DE). A half-mile walk or a 2-mile drive in the other direction takes you to the Fair Hill Natural Resource Management Area with its 80 miles of trails for biking, hiking and horse riding. There are plenty of other regional recreational, shopping, dining, and entertainment activities, with University of DE in Newark, DE (4 miles), Kennett Square (12 miles) and Wilmington, DE (17 miles) and only 6 miles to I-95. Situated in the highly rated and popular Avon Grove School District. The house is clean and in good condition, but needs updating and has been priced accordingly. Great opportunity!
