Property Description
Welcome to Dawson Tract, a private enclave of homes in beautiful Yorklyn, perched on a hill with open land and stunning views. This property is a dream with incredible sunsets over the western landscape. This well-maintained brick colonial features a detached garage, 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 2 half baths, combining timeless charm with modern updates. At the heart the home is an updated kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and newly refinished hardwood floors that flow into the foyer and the combined living and dining room. The cozy family room boasts a gas fireplace, skylights, and access to a sunroom with expansive backyard and patio views-perfect for relaxing evenings or outdoor gatherings. A motorized awning provides extra shade, while an area for a firepit creates the perfect setting for memorable nights. A laundry room and half bath complete the main floor level. Upstairs, an oak staircase leads to three bedrooms, a hall bath, and a serene primary suite with its own full bath. A cedar closet offers extra storage and completes the upper level. The finished basement, with outside access, features a media room with a projection system, office space, a half bath, and plenty of storage. A standout feature is the detached garage, which could serve as an in-law suite, studio, or workshop. The backyard, just under an acre, includes 2,000 sq. ft. of hardscaping, offering ample space for recreation, gardening, or simply enjoying the gorgeous sunset views. Additional highlights include a backup generator, gas log fireplace, new roof, water heater, heat pump with Arzel two-zone heating, new well pump, updated double-hung windows, replaced canvas on awnings and the pride of single ownership throughout. Conveniently located between Hockessin and Centerville, this home is minutes from downtown Hockessin, dining, parks, and within walking distance of Dew Point Brewery, Oversee, and Auburn Station.
