Pride of ownership shows throughout this 5 bedroom, nondevelopment custom Hockessin home. It is situated on a half acre lot. The fenced back yard offers lots of privacy and a nice place to entertain with a patio and new deck off the kitchen and family room. Attention to detail is evident in the many designer featured updates throughout. Enter the foyer and on your right you will see a living room/study with a wall of custom built cabinetry and a bump out bay window which offers lots of natural light. Opposite this room is a large formal dining room with gleaming hardwood floors. Fresh paint throughout was done in tasteful, relaxing colors. The gourmet eat- in kitchen is a cook's delight featuring newer stainless steel appliances, Corian countertops with a built in butcher block, beautiful travertine backsplash, under cabinet lighting, a large pantry, and bar counter. The sunlit family room includes a marble surround gas fireplace, carpet, beautiful crown molding, and a new ceiling fan. Upstairs the spacious Master Suite features a large walk-in closet, ceiling fan, bath with a soaking tub and stall shower, and his and her vanities. There are four additional spacious bedrooms with nice size closets, a hall linen closet, and the luxury of an upstairs laundry to complete this level. The finished walk out basement has a large recreation area suitable for a pool table and is prewired for a theater area with built in shelving that will hold a 100 inch screen. The basement also has recessed lighting, carpeting, and tile that leads outside to the patio. The tankless water heater was installed in 2011. Many upgrades have been made by the current owners which include solar panels, insulated garage doors, Dalkin HVAC system with whole house humidifier and HEPA filtration, a new whole house water softener and filtration system, and new light fixtures throughout.
