Designed by renowned architect Richard Chalfont, the home features 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 1 half bath with approximately 4600 SF of finished living space! Set on a private lane, the home features hexagonal rooms (see floor plans) with views from every room of the serene, landscaped yard. One of the many unique features of the home is the use of butternut wood as walls and cabinets throughout the home. The use of natural materials installed in the home has created a natural setting both inside and outside. For example, much of the first floor features a cork floor while the remainder of the home has gorgeous hardwood floors.
From the circular driveway, an exterior staircase flanked by stone welcomes family and friends to this home. Step into a hexagonal foyer that features recessed closet doors to create continuous walls. Turn right into a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace, uplighting, and unobstructed views of the outdoors. Adjacent to the living room is a den with a floor-to-ceiling stone façade surrounding a second wood-burning fireplace. Lined with bookcases, the family is a cozy place to gather for games or movies. Stepping left from the foyer is the dining room, which flows to the kitchen, laundry room, and garage. The eat-in kitchen is inviting to all with its butternut 42” cabinets, concrete countertops, Wolf six-burner gas range with stainless steel hooded vent, Sub-Zero counter depth refrigerator, Bosch double-wall ovens, and Miele dishwasher. There are multiple pantry cabinets providing much storage. The laundry room has front-loaded appliances, a sink, concrete countertops, and cabinets. A coat cubby and bench are a landing place between the 2-car garage and hallway to the kitchen.
A private office is situated between the family room and primary first-floor bedroom with a carved wall desk made of butternut wood, which is the focal point of this room. The primary bedroom is an inviting sanctuary with picturesque windows. The primary bath has been thoughtfully renovated with a walk-in tiled shower, concrete countertop, heated tiled floor, and built-in cabinets. A second first-floor bedroom overlooks the backyard and has access to a full bathroom across the hall, which is finished in natural earthtone colors.
Ascend the staircase to the second-floor landing where one finds a bedroom, fully renovated bath with dual sinks and a walk-in shower, and two storage closets, of which one of them is cedar. Walk up another couple of steps to the second bedroom with tons of natural light.
The lower level does not disappoint with more living and storage space. The hallway is lined with bookcases as you approach the open living space. Large windows above ground flood the room with light making it a nice game room, family room, or room for entertainment. A second room is used as a gym but can be adapted for has many other uses as well.
The plantings and gardens surrounding the home are most colorful when in bloom and create a tranquil setting to enjoy the outdoor patio space. The slate and stone patio area was designed and installed by Bill Duncan of White Oak Landscapes. The property includes a tree fort, paths through the gardens, and
natural plants such as azaleas, rhododendrons, ferns, and more! Hummingbirds grace this property each year and owls can be heard hooting in the neighborhood. A short distance from area attractions, including Winterthur Museum Garden & Library, Longwood Gardens, and Hagley Museum, its location is convenient to downtown Wilmington, I-95, and local shopping such as Wegmans and Janssens Market. This home has been lovingly maintained and updated by the owners and is not one to miss on your tour!
