29 York Rd, Wilmington, DE 19803

Gorgeous, comfortable, well adapted and highly updated mostly brick home on a picture perfect leafy street in an always desirable neighborhood near everything north and with easy access to transportation, offices downtown and Philadelphia. Welcoming open front porch with scroll work details and large mostly fenced rear yard with shed and a big, handsome pavered patio just the right size for cook outs and private entertaining. Lots of natural light in the spacious living room with built in cabinets and shelving and in the sunny dining room with custom bay window, attractive chandelier and widened doorway opening it to the beautifully remodeled kitchen with corian countertops, abundant recessed lighting, recent stainless steel gas stove, built in microwave and brand new dishwasher. Adjacent family room with new carpet opens to the kitchen as well as the living room and has very handy built in cabinets, a double closet, a sweet powder room and a pet door with included electronic tags allowing easy access to a side enclosure with gates to the street and to the rear yard. This easy flow circular main level floor plan sets this home apart from the others and is a very important improvement. Equally unusual for homes of this sort is that it has a family room as well as a garage because most have one or the other. Upstairs are 3 roomy bedrooms with ceiling fans, a walk in closet and a stylish, updated bath featuring a 5.5 ft. cast iron tub with tile surround. Huge, insulated, fully floored attic. Central air is just 7 yrs. old as is the gas hot air furnace which is under warranty. Single layer main roof (2005) and new garage flat roof (2017) plus the garage with remote entry has a new Pella door. Energy efficient replacement windows, refinished original oak hardwood floors, original front door, some replacement plumbing, Nest system for setting thermostat, whole house water filter, abundant interior and exterior electrical outlets plus hose bibs right where you'd reach for them. Just 3 owners in 73 years - most recently a family of 4 - have loved and cared for this charming low maintenance home, thoughtfully tweaking and improving it to greatly enhance its inherent graciousness with comfort and ease of living. Now it can be yours. See it soon!
