Love a peaceful setting convenient to everything yet feeling like you're miles away on a mountain vacation? Then you must tour this property. Located in the heart of Hockessin, this two story home is situated on a spectacular one acre lot. As you enter the driveway you are greeted by mature natural landscaping that continues as you move toward the home. A stacked stone retaining wall adds to the beauty as you approach the front door. A beautiful paver patio and walkway lead your guests to the front door while a turned 2 car garage gives owners access to a mud/laundry room. The interior has been meticulously maintained and well updated. As you enter this center hall colonial, the foyer is flanked by living & dining rooms that offer an abundance of living space. Both these rooms have natural lighting through large bay windows facing the front landscaping. A stunning stone fireplace with a built in corner cabinet adds both charm & function to the family room. Adjoining the family room is a bright oversized eat-in kitchen. This kitchen has an island, ample cabinets with plenty of storage and a custom stacked stone backsplash. The living & family rooms can be separated by glass pocket doors or keep them open to create fantastic flow. With more and more people working from home, the option of closing off a room with pocket doors seems like a true gem. Along the rear of the home, spanning the entire width, is an oversized two tier deck. From this deck, the views are spectacular and you are immersed in natural beauty. Look down the ridge or take a walk along the paths, this is truly mother nature at her finest. The second floor of this home offers four bedrooms, each with ceiling fans & switched outlets. The master bedroom has an impressive custom tile en suite tastefully done with neutral tones. It is possibly the show stopper of this property. The other three bedrooms are also generously sized. The lower level is a full walk out with french doors. It could easily be finished off to add even more living space. The updates for this home include newer windows, both well & hot water heater are just a few years , and the HVAC is just 5 years young. A completely new septic system was installed in 2020 which gives new buyers complete peace of mind they will not have to incur this huge expense down the road.
