* Motivated Seller * Welcome home to 5634 Pearsons Corner Rd in Dover, DE - Originally built in 1908 and thoughtfully updated in 2022, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on 5.8 acres and blends classic character with modern upgrades. Inside, you'll find new flooring, updated bathrooms, a new roof, and a beautifully refreshed kitchen featuring handcrafted Amish cabinetry. The layout offers a spacious eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, and cozy family room, with a lovely sunroom perfect for relaxing on warm afternoons. A full bath and laundry area are located on the main floor, while all three bedrooms and a second full bath are upstairs. Five ceiling fans are installed throughout the home, with one upstairs being conveyed as-is. The home also includes a water conditioner, which has not been used by the seller and is also conveyed as-is. The property includes two detached outbuildings. The first is a 52x26 garage, approximately 1,352 square feet, with a newer metal roof (2022), space for two cars, three horse stalls, hay storage, and a finished upstairs area currently used as sleeping quarters. This versatile space includes electric, heat, window A/C, and an unfinished storage area, making it ideal for a guest suite, hobby room, or recreational area. The second outbuilding is approximately 1,364 square feet (62x22) and features three open bays used for buggy storage, along with a chicken coop. An approved permit for a 32x56 detached pole building will be provided to the new owner. The seller, a licensed and insured Amish builder, is willing to complete the project for an agreed-upon price if desired. Additional highlights include Anderson windows, a new water heater, upstairs air conditioning in the main home, a second fridge in the entryway that will stay, and a new fence installed in 2022. A Class H septic inspection and updated septic design will also be provided. Wetland delineation has been completed, and a map will be shared with the buyer—offering the option to clear additional wooded areas if more usable land is desired. The home is currently occupied as an Amish farm. There is electric throughout, heat upstairs, and the main level is heated via coal stove. The seller is willing to install baseboard heating on the first floor if needed to meet financing requirements. Located just outside the heart of Dover, this property combines peaceful rural living with easy access to shopping, dining, and commuter routes. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated farmhouse with functional outbuildings and plenty of space to grow.
