Welcome to 3207 Swarthmore Rd in the desirable Westmoreland neighborhood. A convenient location and rarely available beautiful solid brick home backing up to the golf course. The center hall colonial brings you into a large living room and formal dining room. The kitchen with granite countertops and painted cabinetry overlooks a brick patio perfect for summer barbecues. Adjacent is the spacious family room surrounded with glass windows to allow an abundance of sunshine in on bright days. As you pass through the sliding French doors you are greeted by the newly custom built (2020) heated salt water pool with pebble finish. Perfect backyard to entertain or relax in privacy. The second level is home to primary en suite with updated bath. A second bedroom en-suite is a child’s delight or perfect guest room with renovated full bath. A full hall bath and two more bedrooms complete that level. The lower level is partially finished for a playroom or extra family room and half bath. Plenty of unfinished space is perfect for storage and an outdoor shower for coming in after swimming. This home is in a wonderful location for shopping and dining. Close to I-95 and all that Wilmington has to offer!
