Description

If you are looking for a peaceful and private setting in Landenberg, this contemporary chalet-style home on a 1.6 acre wooded lot is just minutes to Delaware, White Clay Creek State Park and various walking/biking trails – the location is both convenient and connected to nature. A wide circle-shaped driveway leads you to the front of the house which has a hardscaped courtyard entry, or continue further to the attached 2-car garage which offers extra parking. As you approach the main entrance, take note of the unique brick inlaid compass rose. Enter the oversized double door and you’ll immediately notice the impressive turned wood staircase and beautiful parquet floors. In the living room, vaulted ceilings and a 2-story fireplace make a grand statement. Continue into the dining room which would easily accommodate a large table for gatherings and meals. From here, slider doors lead out to the deck. The kitchen has copious storage, wood cabinets, a center island with cooktop, double ovens, a built-in microwave, an eat-in breakfast area, and a desk. The adjacent family room has a wall of large windows, a custom bar, a fireplace and slider doors that lead out to the deck. Also on this floor are a mudroom with washer and dryer, and a powder room. Upstairs, there is a large open loft area that could serve many functions – an office, a library, a playroom, an arts and crafts area, a cozy den, or close it in to create a fourth bedroom. A spacious primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath complete this level. There is an unfinished walk-out basement which offers abundant storage or tremendous potential to finish for a variety of uses. Recently updated systems include HVAC, tankless hot water heater and septic. A fenced area with grass is the perfect place for your dogs to frolic, or for creating the garden of your dreams. With power washing and some light maintenance, you can quickly freshen up the exterior. From this special home in the woods, you can enjoy watching the trees in all seasons!
