This cedar and stone-sided beauty boasts a first-floor en-suite bedroom, with three more bedrooms on the upper level. With the comfort of a traditional layout, you’ll love the unique two-story foyer with a cedar ceiling, welcoming sunken living room, and adjacent formal dining room. The eat-in kitchen offers tons of natural light, white oak cabinetry, tile backsplash, Zodiac countertops, updated appliances, and bamboo flooring. Keep the back door open and let the warmth in through the adjacent enclosed sunroom. Enjoy the gorgeous views of the .82-acre flat, open lot, or step outside to the large Trex deck. Offering dual access, continue into the family room, highlighted by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with the ease of a gas heat Mendota fireplace insert for warmth and comfort. Finishing out the main level is an updated powder room, laundry room, and primary bedroom with hardwood floors, a full bathroom with newer seamless shower doors, a large walk-in closet, and an adjacent office, dressing, or sitting room. Upstairs, you’ll find three additional bedrooms, an updated full bath, and tons of storage in the walk-in attic. The unfinished lower level offers extra storage with a shelf-lined crawl space or in the large footprint open space. In addition to an efficient gas furnace, this home was specially designed to retain heat with six-inch exterior walls and an extra "Volcano" wood-burning furnace—so you can forget your long underwear! There’s an over sized attached 2-car garage with extra storage for your tractor or gardening equipment. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a well built, meticulously-maintained home in the heart of Hockessin!
