Welcome home to this gorgeous 4 bedroom, 2 full and 2 half bath stone Cape Cod situated proudly on a large corner lot accented with lovely mature trees and hydrangeas in the highly desirable Alapocas neighborhood. Upon entering you will find a bright and airy foyer separating the more private areas of the home from the living spaces. Offering hardwood floors throughout most of the floorplan, the main level boasts a sun filled living room, with oversized windows and deep window sills overlooking the hydrangea garden, a fireplace, charming built-ins and access to both the sunroom and kitchen. The huge, renovated eat-in kitchen is a chef’s dream, with massive amounts of lovely Quartz countertops and storage space to spread out. Soft close cabinetry stretches across the entire 24-foot-long space, also featuring stainless steel appliances including dual ovens, a tile backsplash, a storage island, recessed lighting, and a new refrigerator. Adjacent to the kitchen is the mudroom with built-in cubbies - a perfect spot for discarding the day's items for quick pick up the next day. Off of the kitchen, the stunning sunroom addition awaits with vaulted ceiling and a skylight, quarried stone floors and tons of oversized windows allowing for picturesque views of the garden while enjoying the sunshine and access to the expansive backyard. The main level is completed by the primary bedroom with a renovated ensuite featuring wainscoting, a dual vanity and a striking stone tile and glass surround shower and the 4th bedroom, currently being used as an office, with beautiful built-in bookshelves and attached half bath. Upstairs the wood floors continues, where there are two additional large bedrooms that share a full bath, all featuring lots of natural light and plenty of storage options including a beautiful cedar closet. The finished lower level has been totally upgraded and offers an amazing amount of natural light, an additional kitchen, a flex room (that could be used as an office or easily be converted into a 5th bedroom with the addition of an egress window), a second half bath, laundry room and plenty of space ideal for a playroom, rec room or whatever fits your needs! The garage has an insulated garage door and heater for year round workshop space, plus a 240 outlet for an electric car charger. There’s also a fully fenced-in playground on the lower tier of the backyard boasting a new roof tarp and solar lighting all around it making sure the fun can continue after dark. Additional upgrades include - tankless hot water heater, new HVAC in 2019, upgraded gutters and siding, repointed stone walls, repaved driveway, upgraded electric with the addition of exterior outlets, and the installation of exterior drainage for added peace of mind. The water pipes have been tested to ensure there are no lead pipes in the home. This home has been meticulously and lovingly maintained with well over $160K in upgrades completed during the current ownership. Sellers have a home warranty that runs to September 2027 that is transferable to the buyer. A wonderful home located in an active neighborhood that is within close proximity to Wilmington Friends School and with easy access to Alapocas Run State Park, downtown Wilmington, several local museums and I-95.
