Property Description

Welcome to 1005 Prospect Ave! This is a freshly renovated property in the heart of Marshallton Heights. The renovations list is endless. This property needed some love to bring it into the Twenty First Century and the owners have gone above and beyond. The improvements include a new kitchen with new cabinets, granite countertops, all new stainless appliances, added dishwasher and disposal and additional lighting. The entire second floor has been refreshed including the addition of a half bath (final permits pending). The original hardwood floors have been refinished throughout both stories. Most doors and trim have been replaced except where the original charm could be preserved. The main roof was replaced 4 years ago (2021). This property has all new windows throughout, fresh paint in all main living space, new water heater, new HVAC, gas service upgraded, resurfaced deck, new electrical panel with service upgrade and all new receptacles and device swap and a beautifully restored front porch. There's more to boast about but you must see for yourself. Book a showing today! Nearby to Kirkwood Highway, Delaware Park, Christiana Mall, Boxwood Amazon, I95 and many other major transit ways.
