Property Description
Captivating Cape in beautiful Brandywine Hills! Winding sidewalks, tree-trimmed streets, and serene surroundings is backdrop for this 3 or 4BRs/2.5bath stone home with 1st-floor primary suite, 2nd level guest/2nd primary suite and delightful sun porch. This primely located, coveted community is bordered by Matson Run Park, steps away from Delaware Greenway Trails which connects to Can-do Playground, and 2 blocks from Rockwood Park and Museum. Plus, easy access to I-95, 10 mins. to City of Wilm./Amtrak Train Station and 25 mins. to Phil. Airport. Curved slate sidewalk aptly divides level front lawn and leads to landscaped beds and rounded hedges preceding deep, covered slate front porch where pair of chairs allows one to appreciate scenic setting. Front door with original brass mail slot opens to dove gray ceramic tile floored foyer with turned staircase and bench tucked beneath. This right-sized foyer extends warm welcome! Ceramic tile floor subtly transitions to beautiful hardwood floors in adjacent main rooms, which are open and seamless to each other, creating airy and easy-flow floorplan. 2 deep inset windows flank lovely gas FP in LR, while chair rail and crown molding deliver dramatic details. Cleverly placed angled furniture is open to foyer and beckons one in and area carpet brings splash of color to already warm room, creating engaging space that lends itself to pre-day coffee and post-day conversations! 2 deep inset windows take their cue from LR and are repeated in light-filled DR, as well as tailored French doors. DR touts continued soft ambiance and sizable square footage. These 2 rooms along with outlet of adjacent sunroom offer in-place, on-point entertaining venue! Swing door grants access to updated ceramic tile floored kitchen that speaks volumes of beauty. Rich maple finished-to-the-ceiling cabinets are paired with Kenmore Pro SS appliances, while diagonal gray/white marble backsplash highlights polished quartz countertops. Off foyer is rec/pool/family room with triple window that allows for ample sunlight and views to landscaped lawn. A laid-back, high-in demand space! Off FR is elegant and eclectic retro PR in rose pink/warm gold accent tile. Deep tile window showcases white shutters and square pedestal sink offers contemporary hint. Earlier era charm meets modern day convenience! Hall leads to expansive primary suite that boasts 3 ft. bump out with double-height triple window, while beneath is cozy retreat nook. Wall of DD closets provides storage for full wardrobes. Extra nicety, single closet reveals pull-out drawers, great for stashing/organizing small stuff! Adjoining primary bath also touts retro soft pink tile floor with shower, plus linen closet and built-in makeup vanity. Unfinished LL is great storage! Steps lead up to bank of build-ins touting glass knobs and renovated open floor plan. French doors grant access to guest/2nd primary suite, and another wall of cabinets echoing hall cabinets and hardware. Beyond enjoy retreat area with window. Newly renovated, soothing green full bath is framework for pristine white tile floor, white subway tile tub, and white square basin pedestal sink. Note build-in shelves for towels and toiletries! Sizable BR touts DD closet with build-ins. Floor plan opens up to showcase hall closet and build-in window seat with side shelves. Whimsical and wonderful! Angled ceiling 3rd BR is sweeping and features ceiling fan and bump-out, perfect for desk/dresser. Closets galore! Relish 2 walk-in closets and 3 additional ones! Built-in wide white wood cabinet-style accent piece is ideal for framed photos, candles and more! French doors from DR grant access to sun porch. Wall of windows offers panoramic view of gardens, and tall trees offer privacy. Sunken side terrace touts line of vibrant hedges, alcove for grill and generous area for potted plants and dining set. Slate steps lead to lush backyard and stone-edged beds. Calm haven! A home to highlight on Hawthorne Dr.-SBP
