Does anyone in your household work from home? Might you enjoy a first-floor bedroom? Have a need for an in-law/ au pair suite? How much do you like pantry space? Keep reading. .. 4128 Carpenter Bridge Road in Felton sits on 2 acres in Lake Forest School District and backs up to peaceful farmland. Just under a 10min drive to Harrington, 15min drive to Camden, under 20min to Dover AFB, and under 40min to get down near the beaches, this home is in a great location. Close enough to everything and still feels far enough away! The front of the house is so inviting. The homey front porch with ceiling fan and grand wall sconces flanking the front door welcomes you inside. Enter through the foyer. Off to the right is a huge master suite with ceiling fans and a built-in, window-length storage bench. En-suite bathroom has stand up shower, dual vanity, tiled floors, and walk-in closet (partially carpeted) with its own laundry hookups. Across the hall is the perfect work-from-home office space. Would you like to be able to come and go as if your office is separate from the house? Shut the door to the foyer and use the porch access door. Through the foyer is one enormous open living/dining room into the kitchen. Kitchen has granite countertops, electric cooking, built-in microwave, a soon-to-be-installed reverse osmosis system, THREE pantries, and an extra refrigerator hookup (for a wine/beer fridge, perhaps?) and a half bathroom. The living area has a ceiling fan and also a pellet stove that keeps the room nice and toasty. (The TV and bracket on the wall also convey. ) Upstairs you have 4 bedrooms (one of which has walk-in access to attic storage space), all carpeted with ceiling fans, plus second floor laundry and a full bathroom. Yes, there are TWO laundry hookups in this home! The bathroom comes complete with dual vanity, granite countertop, tiled floor, tub/shower combo and ceiling fan. Hardwood floors are throughout the first floor, except for the tiled kitchen and bathrooms. Then you have a screened porch off the back of the house (also with ceiling fan – there 11 total in this house!). Step out of the porch onto a large landing that leads down to a brick patio and walkway. The immediate yard is fenced in creating a small boundary, yet the rest of your yard seems to go on forever, even though it ends where the field starts. Enjoy the firepit and also the three bluebird houses and two Martin houses that will remain so their homes are not uprooted. There is also an outdoor storage shed, 3-car garage with access to the backyard that comes with at least one workbench, plenty of driveway parking, and a massive unfinished basement. Currently it’s being used for storage and a workout area. This home’s other highlights include: properly graded backyard in 2018, whole house Aquasana water filtration system, ADT security system, new kitchen fridge in 2020, and the gravity septic system has already been inspected and certified. Water test was also recently done. One note for the curious - the visible top soil in the backyard is from an outdoor project that was started with all good intentions of being completed, yet there was not enough time to complete prior to listing the home for sale. It’s been filled in and seeded. Surely this must be enough information for you to schedule your appointment and see for yourself!
