    What's special

    Just off of Philadelphia Pike and less than a mile from I-495, 10 minutes from downtown Wilm. and 20 minutes to Phil. Airport, this conveniently located twin home touts 3 BRs/1 bath plus bonus loft! Beige siding is accented by chestnut brown shutters and matching roof. Elevated covered front porch offers opportunity for chairs and conversation. Shared driveway transitions to wide sidewalks for evening walks. Front door opens into casual LR where cream-colored walls and beige carpeting make room appear larger. Common themes throughout are millwork around doorways, oversized windows and wide baseboards, giving home a contemporary flair. Home has clean lines and neutral palette. Nice-size kitchen is lovely. Oak cabinets blend with earth-tone granite countertops. White appliances, recessed lights and large kitchen window create a light and bright room. There is even room for moveable island, adding extra storage cabinets and prep space for meals. FR boasts comfort with its beige carpeting and cherry ceiling fan with lights. Bump out alcove begs for a desk or computer station, since 2 windows flank the area and bring in tons of natural light. Carpeted staircase leading to 2nd floor has volume ceiling and window at landing. Pristine white railing pops against the beige hallway carpeting and overlooks the steps. Three roomy BRs grace this floor and have soft carpeting and ceiling fans with lights. Oversized windows continue even in the BRs, allowing natural light to flood into all rooms. Full bath is large with all-tile shower, cream cabinet-style vanity, mirrored wall cabinet above sink and Hollywood-style lights. Loft boasts remarkable bonus space, and can be utilized as an additional BR/teen/guest suite, rec room or play room, or exercise room. This flex room can be used to suit the needs of the homeowner and can convert to meet changing desires. Natural colors and multiple windows offer a warm and welcoming space. Dormers create usable space for chairs, desk, chest, make up vanity or any else! Fenced-in back yard is flat and deep, dotted with mature tress that provide both greenery during spring and beyond, and shade from the hot summer days. Enjoy the yard for everything from grilling and dining to playing kickball and relaxing. Great home, great location!
