Love the serenity of nature ? Love a peaceful setting convenient to everything yet feeling like you're miles away on a mountain vacation? Then you must tour this property. Located in the heart of Hockessin, this two story home is situated on a spectacular one acre lot. You are instantly greeted at the driveway by mature natural landscaping that continues as you move toward the home. A stacked stone retaining wall adds to the natural beauty as you approach the front door. From the driveway the owner has installed a paver patio and walkway to lead your guests to the front door. A turned 2 car garage with access to a mud/laundry room is located on this side of the property. The interior has been meticulously maintained by an owner that took great pride in their home. As you enter this center hall colonial, the foyer is flanked by living & dining rooms that offer an abundance of living space. Both these rooms have natural lighting through large bay windows facing the front landscaping. Along the back side of the home is a generously sized family room and a bright oversized eat-in kitchen. This kitchen has an island, ample cabinets for plenty of storage and a custom stacked stone backsplash. The family room has a stone fireplace, built in cabinetry and brand new neutral carpet. The same new carpet is found in the adjoining living room. The two rooms can be separated by glass pocket doors or keep them open to create fantastic flow. With more and more people working from home, the option of closing off a room with pocket doors seems like a true gem. Along the rear of the home, spanning the entire width, is an oversized two tier deck. From this deck, the views are spectacular and you are immersed in natural beauty. Look down the ridge, take a walk along the paths or swing from your very own rope swing, this is truly mother nature at her finest. The second floor of this home offers four bedrooms, each with ceiling fans & switched outlets. The master bedroom has an impressive custom tile en suite tastefully done with neutral tones. It is possibly the show stopper of this property. The lower level is a full walk out and if needed, could easily be finished off to add even more living space. The updates for this home include newer windows, both well & hot water heater are less than 1 year, and the HVAC is just 3 years young.
