Welcome Home to this beautifully maintained center hall Colonial, tucked away on a lushly landscaped, generously sized lot that backs directly to the Newark Country Club Golf Course. Located in one of Newark’s most desirable neighborhoods, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. Enjoy this garden inspired environment that is more manageable than it appears with native, low-care plantings and minimal seasonal upkeep that creates a vast array of perennials that bloom from May thru October and thrive with little or no care on part of the Owners. Enjoy close proximity to the University of Delaware, White Clay Creek State Park’s expansive hiking and biking trails, Fairfield Park & Community Garden, and the shops and restaurants of Downtown Newark’s vibrant Main Street. This home is also situated within the sought-after 5-mile radius for Newark Charter School. A long, nature-lined driveway sets the tone for the peaceful lifestyle that awaits. Gardeners will love the thoughtfully designed pathways to the deer protected cypress garden beds. Inside, hardwood floors run through most of the main level and in all bedrooms. The dramatic appeal of the living room offers tranquil views of the surrounding greenery. Across the foyer, the formal dining room—currently used as a home office—adds flexible living space. The kitchen features ample cabinetry, generous counter space, and a nearby large walk-in pantry. The Kitchen opens to a spacious family room with a wood-burning fireplace, creating a seamless space for everyday living or entertaining. The ultimate in outdoor enjoyment can be yours while relaxing in the fair-weather porch with serene views of the backyard and golf course beyond, along with a beautiful paver patio perfect for relaxing in your favorite Adirondack Chair. Upstairs, the Owner's Bedroom features an en-suite bath and two closets. Bedroom 2 has been thoughtfully transformed into a deluxe dressing room, while Bedrooms 3 and 4 provide peaceful views of the surrounding landscape. The finished basement includes a recreation room with a private entrance—ideal for possible conversion into an in-law suite or separate living quarters with the potential addition of a bathroom in the generous walk-in closet. You’ll also find a large laundry area and a separate utility/storage room. A portion of the two-car garage has been converted into a charming pottery studio, offering the perfect space for a home office, workshop, or creative retreat. (Seller will consider putting garage back to 2 car garage with acceptable offer.) This home delivers the perfect balance of indoor comfort and outdoor beauty, with versatile spaces for entertaining, working from home, or simply enjoying the natural surroundings. The Seller is including a one year AHS Shield Plus Home Warranty for your peace of mind. All room sizes and square footages listed are approximations and should be verified by Buyer. Come experience the unmatched charm, flexibility, and location this Newark gem has to offer.
