About This Home

As of February 2026

New Year, New Home!!! Don't miss this gorgeous updated colonial in desirable Covered Bridge Farms! Ideally located with many updates, this property has been a wonderful home and is ready for its next lucky new owner. A charming front porch greets you, leading to the center hall foyer flanked by a spacious living room and large formal dining room, both with original hardwoods and large windows for natural light. The open kitchen was tastefully updated in 2017 and is truly the heart of the home, featuring gorgeous cabinetry and flooring, granite countertops, stainless appliances, large center island, and a walk-in pantry for extra storage. A few steps away, the family room has a fireplace, ceiling fan, and sliders to a cozy covered patio. On the other side of the kitchen, a wide hallway area, spacious office/playroom, updated powder room, and laundry/mudroom complete the main level. The entire floor plan is terrific for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, the huge primary suite includes two closets, an updated full bath with wide shower, and a dressing area with extra sink and lots of cabinetry. Original hardwoods continue throughout the hallway with linen closet, and three more generously sized bedrooms and a second updated full bath with tub/shower. The lower level full basement includes a partially finished area for additional living space, along with a workshop and storage space. Outside, you'll love the private back patio and beautifully landscaped level .84 acre lot with newer shed, turned 2-car garage, and huge expanded driveway area. Imagine the possibilities! Additional updates include a new Roof (2017), Furnace (2023), A/C (2022), Water Heater (2015), and more. Conveniently located to University of Delaware, all major roadways and employers, shopping, restaurants, schools, and recreation areas. Don't let this one get away!
