Dramatic and stunning, this stone colonial is located in Westover Hills, the historically significant neighborhood popular for its tree-lined streets and architecturally unique homes. 1201 Hopeton Rd has one of the most generous lots in the community, set on over an acre. Enter into the stately center hall foyer and immediately notice the charm and character unique to homes of this era, including a wide turned staircase with ornate newel post, gleaming wood floors and custom moldings. The foyer is flanked by a large formal living room with fireplace and a generously-sized dining room with original corner cabinet and swinging door leading into the updated kitchen. The gourmet kitchen includes custom light-colored cabinetry, island with seating, high-end stainless steel appliances, and mudroom area connected to a 2-car garage. Continue through the kitchen past an updated powder room to find a private office and on to a large sunroom/family room. Head up the main staircase and into the luxurious owner’s suite that features a large bedroom and two entrances into the new addition encompassing a walk-in closet/dressing room with extensive shelving system and marble en-suite with walk-in shower, soaking tub and dual vanity. Three additional well-sized bedrooms share an updated guest bath. An additional 5th bedroom suite sits tucked away with full privacy past its own sitting area and enjoys a private bath and access to the back staircase leading to the kitchen and back door for easy private access. The unfinished walk-up attic provides an abundance of storage. Head to the finished lower level, currently fashioned as an in-home gym. The rear slate patio has an enclosure with partial overhang and kitchenette with grill. The sprawling grounds are truly one-of-a-kind. A fenced pool leads to a stone pool house with overhang creating a perfect outdoor entertaining space for Summer gatherings. An additional garage space adjoins the rear of the pool house. Enjoy the classic features with all of the ease of modern living while being just steps from Downtown Wilmington, Trolley Square and Rockford Park with immediate access to Amtrak and I-95.
