Description
Welcome to this beautifully re-imagined raised ranch where modern elegance meets everyday comfort. Completely remodeled over the past 6 years, this stunning home is filled with thoughtful upgrades and stylish finishes throughout. Step inside to fresh designer paint, recessed lighting, and gorgeous new flooring, while original hardwood floors remain underneath for timeless charm. The show-stopping open-concept kitchen, completely renovated just 2 years ago with over $60,000 in upgrades, features quartz countertops, top-of-the-line appliances, a drawer microwave, Reverse osmosis - a water purification connected to the refrigerator, and the perfect layout for entertaining family and friends. The beautifully updated bathrooms, also remodeled 2 years ago, add a fresh and luxurious touch throughout the home. The lower level was designed for fun and relaxation with a sleek granite-top mini bar, built-in wine fridge, and inviting additional living space. Major improvements include a roof less than 2 years old with transferable lifetime warranty, newer water heater, new sliding glass door, plus a French drain and sump pump system for added peace of mind. Outside, enjoy a private backyard and beautifully landscaped setting just minutes from the University of Delaware, public schools, shopping, dining, and convenient transportation to downtown Newark.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAwesome. I would not want my kids to be anywhere else. My daughter is in 1st Grade Chinese Immersion. She started last year. All of her teachers have been amazing. Mrs Neal in kindergarten and Ms Hardy in first grade were awesome.Parent Review8y ago - Shue-Medill Middle School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI don’t think people realize that this school actually sucks, respectfully. The students aren’t getting the proper education they need after looking at the percentages of math and reading, the bullying is getting out of hand and there’s at least 5-8 people who calls out someone for something small or call them the “n” word, and my overall experience? I disliked it. The only good thing that happened were my teachers — my teachers were amazing and are fully acceptant towards me, knowing i’m asian. Though, there’s one teacher that needs to work on their attitude and mood swings not gonna lie.. overall, I don’t recommend this school. I give it at least a 3/10 and a 1/5.Student Review3mo ago - Newark High School
