Property Description
Welcome to 1208 Bruce Road - where timeless charm meets everyday comfort in one of North Wilmington's most sought-after neighborhoods, Carrcroft. From the moment you arrive, the beautiful stone elevation and inviting screened-in front porch with window-covered awnings set the tone for the warmth and character you'll find inside. Step into a spacious foyer that opens to a home filled with natural light, hardwood floors, and thoughtful details. The living room's wood-burning fireplace becomes the heart of cozy winter evenings, while the wood-paneled office or sitting room offers a quiet retreat for work, reading, or even an additional bedroom. Holiday dinners and celebrations come alive in the generously sized dining room, perfectly placed just off the newly updated eat-in kitchen. Here, solid maple cabinets, stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, a tile backsplash, recessed lighting, and a charming garden window create a space where morning coffee feels brighter and dinner prep becomes a joy. Upstairs, the large primary bedroom with its own bathroom offers a private sanctuary, while three additional bedrooms and a hall bath provide comfortable space for family or guests. The 2-car rear-turn garage, a characteristic of the neighborhood, makes coming and going a breeze, and the unfinished, professionally waterproofed basement is ready for storage, laundry, or future finishing. Relax and enjoy summer evenings and hosting barbeques on your backyard paver patio. With all of the major items throughout the house being recently updated, there is nothing left to do but add your finishing touches and enjoy all that this charming home has to offer. Carrcroft is desired for its convenient location. The entrance and exit for I-95 can be reached in minutes without a single traffic light, and it is close to parks, restaurants, shopping and entertainment. From the relaxing front porch to the thoughtful updates and the prime Carrcroft location, this is more than a house. Schedule your tour today!
