Arrive at the top of a hill on a quiet cul de sac to find a must-see home now available in West
Newark in the established Timber Creek neighborhood. Located near the Newark Country
Club, a little over a mile from the University of Delaware campus, within a short walking
distance to a bridge leading to Rittenhouse Park and Downes Elementary School.
Curb appeal grabs your attention with manicured landscaping, and best yet, crisp looking
poured concrete on the porch, front path, driveway and sidewalk! Enjoy your morning coffee on
the covered porch with flowers blooming, a wonderful way to start your day. Head around to
the rear to find one of the best backyards in the area, where mature trees provide beauty in
every season, with a lighted lower area for entertaining.
Once inside, feel the calmness of neutral walls and gleaming oak hardwood floors throughout
the entire home. The foyer leads to the kitchen with stainless steel appliances, plenty of cabinet
and pantry storage, and a dining area with sliding doors that overlooks the lovely backyard. You
won’t ever want to leave this spot whatever the season. A great feature is a custom open plan
where the kitchen dining connects to the family room. Here find custom-built shelving
bracketing both sides of the large front window, where lots of sunshine pours in. On the other
side of the foyer, a formal living room leads to the dining room where you can share a
festive meal under a sparkling 6-light candle-style chandelier, displaying your family heirlooms in
the custom-built corner cabinets with glass fronts.
The oak floors continue up the stairs to the second floor where you find 2 good-sized
bedrooms, both with large closets and plenty of light. One has an attic opening in the closet for
extra storage. A third smaller bedroom with a wide closet is perfect for an in-home office or
nursery, and a neutrally tiled full bath with granite vanity top and rich dark cabinetry is located
in the hallway. And then there is the Master! This spacious suite can hold a king-sized bed
comfortably, has a ceramic tiled ensuite bathroom with Jacuzzi tub and granite vanity top, and
a large walk-in closet.
Off the kitchen, open the door to head down to the fully finished lower level with recessed
lighting and berber carpet. Find a separate room that can be used for a playroom or exercise
area with the 2nd half bath, next to a surprise door that leads to the huge storage area
spanning the width of the house.
Off the one-car garage is the mud room and laundry area with half bath to keep your family's
daily messes under control. Take your shoes off here and enter! Welcome Home!
