10 Peirce Rd, Wilmington, DE 19803

Completely charming brick and cedar colonial well situated on a gorgeous private lot thoughtfully combines original features with contemporary touches that offer a comfortable, consistently appealing, woodsy refuge in a prime community and location. Original hardwood floors, solid wood doors with original hardware, a stainless steel screen door, brick walkways, copper gutters and downspouts, built-ins and bookshelves and some cottage windows add to the warm traditional feeling throughout. A classic kitchen with stainless steel counters, and some appliances, offers gas cooking, and has been fully opened to the dining room creating a highly valuable and unusual space for entertaining and relaxing. Nearby is a spacious laundry room. Upstairs, 3 bedrooms and a walk-in closet as well as a sweet hall bath updated with new fixtures, toilet, outlets and sink. The spacious master bedroom comforts with newer wool berber carpet. Handy side entry garage w/remote and interior access plus additional off street parking. Lots of storage in the garage loft and fully floored attic with insulated door. Custom, special order shades on most windows. One of the important features that sets this home apart from others in the Village section of Deerhurst is the installation of closed cell spray foam insulation in the crawl space as well as a more routine vapor barrier. The systems are gas with an electronic air filter and there is a new (2016) black granular rubber roofing system on the flat roof with a 12 year transferable warranty. Exceptionally nice rear yard with fencing, pavers and patio is a gorgeous private sanctuary that seems on the edge of an English churchyard as it within sound of the bells in Independence Mall and is also highly conducive to play and private partying. All this warm, relaxed ambience in a friendly sought-after neighborhood known for its active Civic Association and community parks and within an easy walk to transportation, shopping and the Northern Delaware Greenway Trail.
