Built in 1985, which makes it one of the newer homes in the development, was built on a quarter acre, purchased from the owners of the house next door. It is tucked effortlessly amongst the colorful Spring perennials , and budding trees, in the well established neighborhood of the original Alapocas. This classic brick colonial, located in one of the most sought after communities in Delaware, has everything but the white picket fence. Sidewalks wind quietly through mature trees and lush vegetation. Neighbors wave and smile at each other. Children's laughter can be heard faintly from the nearby Friends School, ranked as one of the best in the tri-state area for both academics as well as its numerous sports programs .

It has hiking and biking trails, a rock climbing area, the all-inclusive Can-Do Playground for children of every age and ability, and more. This is not just a place to live: it is a lifestlyle.

The brick entranceway opens to the warmth of honey colored hardwood floors and a bright cheery kitchen, This kitchen has every upgrade from its double ovens to its well thought out storage , and beautiful built-ins. Every tiny space in this kitchen has a purpose. There is a small room tucked just off the kitchen that the current owner has used as a playroom when her daughters were small, and has been a home office for the last several years.
