Welcome to 289 W. Chestnut Hill Road in Newark, Delaware, a well-maintained, all-brick ranch offering the ideal combination of comfort and convenience. This spacious, low-maintenance property is situated on a non-development parcel of nearly a half-acre within the Newark city limits, thereby benefiting from desirable municipal services such as trash, road snow, and leaf removal. The location provides convenient access to the University of Delaware, major commuter routes, and various local shopping, dining, and recreational areas. Upon entry, one is greeted by a welcoming interior featuring a slate foyer and gleaming hardwood floors. Main-level living is facilitated by three generously proportioned bedrooms and two full bathrooms, all situated on a single floor. The primary bedroom includes a large, cedar-lined walk-in closet and a full private bath. The formal living room offers a bright and airy ambiance, perfect for relaxation or hosting guests. The kitchen is appointed with solid cherry cabinetry, ample counter space, and granite countertops. The adjacent dining room provides access to the lower level, garage or three-season flagstone porch with views of a private, well-landscaped backyard. The lower level offers a large, comfortable family room with a fireplace and bar area. There is also a dedicated utility/laundry room, powder room, and walk-out access to the back yard. This inviting and highly practical residence features an oversized garage, a convenient horseshoe driveway, and includes a 12' x 16' vinyl-covered storage shed. Don’t delay.
