Step back in time with this rare 1930 Sears kit home in the heart of Yorklyn/Hockessin, just steps away from DewPoint Brewery and Red Clay Creek Park/Auburn Valley Park. Delivered by railroad and lovingly preserved, this historic gem features original hardwood floors, a stunning craftsman-style staircase, antique doors with brass knobs and locks, and spacious walk-in closets — a true rarity for a home of this era. The house sits on a wonderfully situated a spacious half acre lot. Enjoy morning coffee on the large covered front porch by the magnolia tree or unwind on the back covered patio surrounded by azaleas, meticulously maintained gardens and blooming trees. Inside, the bright dining room boasts a bay window and built-in bar nook, perfect for entertaining. Stay cozy in the winter by the fireplace, originally wood burning but converted to gas. The current owners have invested over $25,000 in professional basement waterproofing and foundation reinforcement, ensuring the home is as solid as it is charming. With unmatched character, modern peace of mind, and an ideal Yorklyn location— all under $500K — this is a truly special opportunity you don’t want to miss.
