A gem in Green Acres! Appreciate this right-sized renovated ranch offering easy 1-level living in sought-after N. Wilm. suburbia. This 4 BRs/2 bath tan-siding home has pitched roofline, maximizing natural light and generous space, and oversized carport that grants easy access to front door, while offering protection from the elements. Front door with decorative oval glass inset grants access to sweeping multi-purpose sun-drenched main space and polished hardwood floors, truly living up to an open concept floor plan. All main rooms are interconnected and blend seamlessly with each other, so room dimensions can be divided to accommodate lifestyle. Harbor gray paint throughout serves as neutral palette for decorating style so choices are endless. Go monochromatic with area rugs and furnishings or add bright pops of color. Main room is spacious, spanning front to back of home and lends itself most to a LR/FR, with DD hall closet for coats and accessories. From front door one can appreciate white brick wood-burning FP with elevated black hearth on far wall. Flanking FP is set of glass sliding doors. Space can easily fit collection of couches, chairs, end tables and coffee table, all the while taking advantage of lovely FP and views to outdoors.
