488 Walther Rd, Newark, DE 19702
About this home
This immaculately maintained dream home is waiting for you. Welcome home! After walking across the brick pathway you will open the front door to a spacious foyer with 15ft cathedral ceilings. When you look to your left you will see the formal living room with a wood burning fire place to keep you cozy and warm. To your right is the formal dining room boasting walls covered with Waverly wallpaper and chair rails. Beyond the formal living room is the bonus room you can use as an office or bedroom or whatever fits your needs. Walk across the real hardwood floors to the bright and sunny kitchen with a cozy dining area. From the dining area walk into the family room with two French doors leading to the over-sized brick patio. This family room has cathedral ceilings which seem never ending. A gas burning fire place to keep you warm and a beautiful ceiling fan to cool you down on the hot summer days. You can choose either the front or family room stairway to access the second floor where you will find three generously sized bedrooms. In addition, there's second floor laundry. No more carrying clothes up and down stairs. Last but definitely not least, walk into the huge Master Suite with a sitting room on the right and on your left a large master bathroom with a jacuzzi tub, his and her sinks, Italian marble and a separate shower. This Master bedroom suite is to die for. With almost an acre of land you won't find a house like this anywhere!
