Step onto the inviting maintenance-free front porch where you can relax with your morning coffee or chill with friends. This home radiates warmth and welcome as you enter through the new front door into a spacious living room filled with natural light and luxury vinyl plank flooring. It flows directly into the heart of the home - a fully renovated chef’s kitchen, with white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, gas cooking, stainless steel appliances, a large pantry, and a galley-style eat-in area perfect for daily meals or entertaining guests. Down the hall, you’ll find a 1st floor bedroom and a renovated full bath with a walk-in shower - ideal for guests or single-floor living. There's also a 1st floor laundry/mud room with direct access to the side driveway. A newly added staircase leads to the expansive second-floor primary suite, offering a peaceful retreat with two oversized closets, a dedicated home office nook, a private en-suite bath, and access to a spacious 14' x 8' attic storage room. The large fenced yard shaded by trees is perfect for backyard barbecues, sitting around the firepit, gardening, or simply enjoying the outdoors. Two storage sheds (16' x 10' and 10' x 10') provide plenty of extra space for tools, bikes, or hobbies. Ideally located within walking distance to Townsend Elementary in the ever popular Appoquinimink School District, and just a short drive to Middletown’s vibrant shopping and dining scene or the Delaware beaches for a weekend escape.
