About this home

Celebrate country living with convenient access all shopping, schools, and Route 1 business and beach destinations. This Nanicoke home enjoys four nicely sized bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. The attached garage is oversized and has an additional machine shop/workshop attached. There is an additional garage storage area that has a convenient wide open rear access to house your horses, yard equipment and more. Enter into an open kitchen and gathering room area that supports an inviting three season porch. Kitchen features include corian countertops, expansive work surfaces, backyard viewing window over sink, convenient center island with drawers and cabinets, L-shaped work surface with additional cabinets facing the eat-in kitchen seating space. There are two first floor bedrooms with one supporting a walk-in closet and full bath. Upstairs the bedrooms are very spacious and share a full bath. There is an additional sitting area that could accommodate an office space, home school teaching area or media room. The home is just 28 years young with a 50’ well and newly installed septic system in 2021. Never had pets or smoking in the home by the previous owners. Tax records are incorrect for acreage as well as square footage. Upstairs square footage was never added to the tax records and survey for lot shows the listing acreage is accurate. There is endless potential to customize the home and use the acreage for a multitude of recreational and agricultural purposes. Come hear the birds chirping and watch the sunset from your porch. It’s the solitude you’ve been seeking!
