Welcome Home! This soft contemporary has been designed to take advantage of the magnificent views out back - City of Newark parklike open space just beyond the backyard!! Enter this 3 bedroom 2.1 bath home to be greeted with a wall of windows in the family room that overlooks the yard. The magnificent family room features a wood burning fireplace, cathedral ceiling & lovely hardwood floors. Off the family room are 2 generous size bedrooms (currently one is an office & the other used as a TV room) that share a full bath. The spacious kitchen features plenty of counter space as well as an island, full size eating area, and an outside side entrance. There is a formal dining room with sliders to the deck (this beautiful & private deck awaits your first summer barbeque!!) Rounding out the first floor there is a powder room, laundry room & entrance to the two car garage . The second floor is designed for Owners only!! Starting with a loft - this flexible space could be an office, an artists studio or a space to read a book or enjoy the lovely views. The Owners suite is one of a kind - a true retreat - boasting a fireplace that is flanked by bookshelves, a generous size walk-in closet & oversize bathroom with it's own skylight. Rounding out the suite is a sitting room that has beautiful views of the yard & park beyond, but can be closed off from the sleeping area by French doors.
The lower level has been finished to include a family room & a second room currently used as a personal gym. In addition there is plenty of storage space.
Outside has been designed with low maintenance in mind- The shaded front yard has beautiful native perennials which change with the season. The rear yard continues the peaceful flow of more low maintenance plantings & although located on a lot that is less than a quarter of an acre there is the feel of more space thanks to the parkland.
Located within the City of Newark the new owners can enjoy the various parks that are within walking distance of the house (including a beautiful walking trail around the reservoir ), the many fine restaurants that the City has to offer along with shops & boutiques . Centrally located this home feels like it is miles away from everything but is minutes from UD, I-95, Pike Creek & Hockessin, Not to be missed if you are looking for something special!!
