About this home
Unicorns do exist. This home is being offered for sale for the first time ever by the original owner who built it in 1968 and has proudly owner-occupied it for the past 58 years. This is a rare opportunity to own a nicely updated 1-story ranch home in North Wilmington (19810), where properties like this seldom come to market. Located in the sought-after Chalfonte neighborhood within the highly regarded Brandywine School District, this home offers refined one-level living in a premier location. Set on a sun-filled 0.29-acre lot, the property features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a 2-car garage, and a 4-car driveway, along with a first-floor laundry area, finished basement, foyer, living room open to the dining room, and a family room with a stone wood-burning fireplace. Outdoor living is enhanced by a large covered front porch and a rear enclosed sunroom off the family room with a modern matte black ceiling fan. Inside, the home showcases a bright, open layout with timeless architectural details and thoughtful updates throughout. The updated chef’s kitchen, complete with a workstation, features custom white cabinetry, brushed brass hardware, solid surface countertops, a stainless steel Samsung 5-burner cooktop/convection oven and microwave, Bosch dishwasher, Frigidaire refrigerator, faucet and abundant cabinet and counter space. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining, living, and family rooms, highlighted by numerous windows and abundant natural light. Additional main-level features include an entry foyer and original oak hardwood flooring throughout, open-concept living and dining areas, and a rare first-floor laundry area. The primary bedroom suite offers a full wall of closets, a walk-in closet, and separate sitting and dressing areas, along with an updated en-suite full bath featuring a walk-in shower with matte black rainhead and fixtures, brushed brass shower door, mirror, light fixture, faucet, and vanity hardware, as well as a white vanity and sink and white ceramic wall and floor tile with refined modern finishes. The second full hall bath has also been updated and features a modern wood vanity, brushed brass mirror, light fixture, and faucet, along with a matte black rainhead shower and fixtures and matte white hex ceramic floor tile with gray grout. The half bath is located in the finished basement.
