Wonderful Historic Hockessin! This move-in ready Valley Road home provides a lot of interior living space and a huge, flat lot that allows for the largest of gatherings! You will delight in the sheer volume of the space and the thoughtful way it is divided between the two levels. The main level features an open living room and dining adorned with beautiful hardwood flooring. The open eat-in kitchen provides plenty of counter space and cabinets and puts the joy into cooking! The main level also has three generously sized bedrooms with new carpeting and lighted closets, a large hall closet, and a well-sized hall bath. The lower level is equally appealing and features a huge open space where two-to-three distinct areas could easily co-exist. Wait -- there is more! There is also a handsome brick fireplace with raised hearth, a fourth bedroom, a full bath with stall shower, sliders to a rear patio, and large laundry room. The great location, close proximity to schools, shopping, dining, parks, and all the greater Hockessin area has to offer are additional reasons for you to make 1166 Valley Road your new home.
