Welcome to this hidden gem that is just waiting for its new owners to move in and return its original shine. This home is being sold AS-IS and is in need of some updating but it offers all the bells and whistles on your checklist and is the perfect blank canvas to transform into your very own. Enter in through the front door flanked by bright sidelights and step up from the foyer with a handy coat closet into the main living area and immediately notice the open and airy floor plan. The living room opens to the dining area which is a design feature you and your guests will enjoy and there is attractive crown moldings in both of these rooms which is quite pleasing to the eye. The family room is located off of the living room and features a bright and cheerful picture window that floods the space with gorgeous natural light. Access the two-tiered deck from the sliding glass door from this room and enjoy a backyard haven that is just perfect for entertaining and relaxing. Also on the main living level is the eat-in kitchen and four roomy bedrooms. One of the bedrooms is separated from the others and can be used as a private suite, home office, playroom and so much more. More features to love on this living level are the hardwood floors, hallway storage closet and full bath with a tub with shower surround. Continue downstairs to the finished lower level where you will find an abundance of space to utilize however you wish. There is an unfinished storage area that is generously sized and this area conveniently accesses the backyard through Bilco doors for your ultimate comfort and convenience. The finished area is a perfect addition to this charming home as it offers so many possibilities for additional living space. There is even a private additional room and powder room making this lower level even more enjoyable to use. Can you believe there is still more to uncover on this home tour as there is just as much to fall in love with on the outside as there is on the inside. Outside you will find a covered front porch, large driveway big enough for 3-car parking, a side patio, two-tiered backyard deck, storage shed and a fenced yard that is perfect for enjoying the outdoors all year long. Imagine all of the gatherings and fun you will have out here with friends and family! A very big bonus feature is the crawl space area which is accessible from the backyard and is the entire size of the back family room and bedroom offering even more storage options for you to put to good use! Conveniently located only moments from downtown Newark, the University of Delaware, shopping, restaurants, parks, schools and more, this home is a place to hang your heart and a wonderful place to call HOME SWEET HOME.
