Bought with Nick Johnson• BHHS Fox & Roach - Hockessin
Excellent buy on this 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch with garage and basement in very desirable Northfield. Translate a thorough cleaning and some paint into THOUSANDS of $$ in equity. This solid home has replacement windows, a newer roof, and updated systems. The 3-year-old kitchen was opened to the main living space for a great open feeling. Full basement has French drain and a full bath. For more storage, there is a full floored attic with pull-down. This is a cleaner-upper, not a fixer-upper, ready for the smart buyer who wants to personalize their home.
