Description

Delight on Delaware Ave.! Welcome to this ever-so quaint 2BRs/1bath ranch with adorable sun porch nearby to the heart of Harrington. Appreciate new take on this century-old renovated home! Sunflower yellow front door offers pop of color amid this gray siding/white trim ranch with elevated front entry. Charm resounds in the front sun porch with beautiful bay window with window seat, while seat cushion and turquoise and orange pillows offer perch for flipping through a magazine, catching up on reading or just relaxing with a cup of coffee. Slender white crown molding enhances white wood ceiling and tile floor offers finished flair. Neutral palette, wide white-wood trim around doors, windows and entrances and extra-thick baseboards are characteristics of home built in the earlier 1900~s and were preserved for elegance and interest. Front-to-back floor plan with lovely hardwoods offers blending of space, leaving room sizes and formality up to the individual taste and lifestyle! The 3 windows that line front wall from sun porch plus other multiple windows lend sunlight to the space. LR/FR and DR comprise one big room, so cleverly area rug and ceiling fan define LR/FR space with comfortable arrangement of couches and chairs around wall-mounted FP with mantle and TV above. Beyond is DR and although hardwoods continue and keep rooms connected, ceiling fan is replaced with elegant chandelier and comfy conversation area takes on formal air with dining set and side hutch. There~s even wall space for wine holder and glasses. In addition to the entrance that leads from DR to kitchen, adjacent is an open pass-through as well. Kitchen is crisp, clean-lined and light. Fresh white cabinets and appliances are perfectly paired with gray/white granite countertops. Ceramic glass tile backsplash strikes a dramatic chord, while center island fulfills the practical role of offering extra prep and storage space. However, note the chandelier above the island providing a whimsical touch. Currently bold cobalt blue is accent color above the cabinets in the form of pitchers, plates and pots. Off kitchen is laundry room with slender crown molding, chair rail, 2-door cabinet and double window. Both BRs are tucked off the main living space with polished hardwoods, sizable closets and millwork accents. Charming full bath boasts square-footed pedestal sink with curved basin, all-tile shower/tub and 9-glass-pane cabinet with shelf below for brightly-colored canvas baskets. Elevated large deck looks to trees and open space, offering all-day comfort with all-around views. Happy living in Harrington!

    "Harrington rarely has any traffic so it’s easy to get in and out. Only problems Harrington has are parades if you like in town, the train, and fair traffic other that that it’s easy to get around."

    "The commute is okay, it’s an easy 10 min drive to Milford , however, an unnecessary chunk of time is wasted when getting out of any neighborhood in Harrington to get to the highway due to short roads, 25 mph speed limits, multiple multiple turn after turn, stop, press gas, stop, turn and again. There are no straight to the highway access roads and 60 % of the time the train slowly passes thru & it is never any less than a 10 minute wait. "

    "Harrington has local shopping and a short drive North to Dover has malls. This small city also offers Harrington Raceway and Casino and the annual Delaware State Fair. A short drive South to some of the areas best beaches,boardwalks and outlet shopping, all tax-free!"
