Gorgeous, ¾ acre setting in River Rock Run bursting with curb appeal. Experience dazzling sunsets from the welcoming front porch , the elegance of the stone facade, morning coffee on the screened rear porch, entertaining guests on a warm evening on the circular EP Henry paver terrace with sitting wall that overlooks a wide open space for seasonal games or a new pool if you so desire. And yes, this home has a full, dry basement with high ceiling and outside access which can be so hard to find. The two-story foyer with transom window over the front door for extra light gives way to lustrous, warm toned engineered hardwood floors on most of the main floor. The large kitchen was recently upgraded with new countertops, electric range, range hood, sink and faucet. Plentiful cabinets in rich wood tone help make the layout easy to prepare meals with additional cabinets and counter adjacent to the breakfast area making a great spot for your specialty coffee machine. The generous sized first floor owners suite with adjoining bathroom includes stall shower, water closet with privacy partition, an extended double vanity, linen, and walk-in closets and enjoys morning sun as do the kitchen and great room where you can get your day off to a good start. The owners added french door with transom above to add privacy to the front office space with west facing windows for great for quiet reading or remote work. An additional door on the opposite side provides quick access to the kitchen for snacks, the powder room and the garage. To the right is a formal dining room to make holiday memories and entertain friends which the current owners have used as a place to relax or play with the grandkids. The Great Room with vaulted ceiling and cozy gas fireplace with slate surround and hearth finished with a classic wood mantle is perfect for relaxing or entertaining friends. Much of the first floor was painted with a soothing neutral color not long ago. Upstairs is another world. Double windows in the three additional, large bedrooms make the rooms bright. One has another walk-in closet and all share a wide landing that leads to the hall bath. The second floor is a separate HVAC zone so you can choose to maintain different temperature than the main floor when not in use. A powder room, laundry room access to the garage and full basement are located off the back hallway. To all this consider the huge, dry, insulated basement with a high ceiling ideal for finishing any number of ways. Add a fitness room, woodworking shop, hobby area or media room. The interior staircase and a Bilco style doors above make it very accessible from the driveway side of the house. The two zone HVAC and Rinnai Tankless Water heater help your home operate efficiently while the low rates from Delaware Electric Co-op are an excellent energy value. Enjoy country living close to the beach with Downtown Milton, and the beaches of Lewes and Rehoboth only minutes away. Cape Henlopen and the extremely popular bike path system are nearby treasures you will want to share with friends and family.
