12 Short Drive, Wilmington, DE 19810

Property Description

Welcome to 12 Short Drive in the North Wilmington neighborhood of Lancashire. This home feels like new construction (but it's not). Outside, the double driveway and turned garage beckon and the red brick exterior enhances the welcome. (The old, broken driveway and walkway were completely removed and rebuilt.) The covered front porch (repoured) begins your journey inside. The Seller has expanded the width of the foyer, pushing the closets back into the spacious living room a bit, which allows for more light and a better flow into the kitchen. And the kitchen! Gleaming quartz countertops sit above quiet-close cabinets with recessed panels. You'll enjoy the stainless appliances, the luxury vinyl plank flooring that runs throughout the entire first floor, the casement window above the stainless sink (makes it ever so easy to welcome in the fresh air), the breakfast bar, and room to add your own personal touches. The dining room with chair rail flows from the kitchen and allows for a better view of the tree lined back yard via the bay window. The living room features its own large window which allows for more light. And speaking of lights... there's a remote-controlled light in the living room that can change colors, plus the home features holiday light switches (one on the front and one on the back of the house) so that once your holiday lights are plugged in outside, you can control them easily from inside your house. From the kitchen, the laundry is in the hallway with front-loading machines set atop stands that make doing the laundry a bit easier. Then on to the family room with a brick wood-burning fireplace and spacious mantle. From here, you can access the 19 x 14 newly resurfaced trex deck that overlooks your serene back yard. Upstairs you'll love the remodeled hall bath and the primary bedroom with remodeled ensuite bath, plus the additional three spacious bedrooms. The hardwood floors upstairs are all refinished and there's an attic with pull down stair hall access. New windows throughout the house, a new roof, all new doors (inside and out), new garage door, new furnace, and new water heater are all added features. No wonder it feels like a brand new house!
