Set high on a gentle hill in one of Wilmington’s most bikeable and friendly neighborhoods, this thoughtfully updated home invites you to gather, relax, and enjoy life, both indoors and out. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be charmed by the lush landscaping: blooming azaleas, cherry and dogwood trees, roses, peonies, and a variety of perennial herbs surround the home with vibrant color and fragrance. An automatic irrigation system and hose bib make garden care effortless, while the extra-wide lot and fenced-in yard provide plenty of space for play, entertaining, or peaceful solitude. Inside, hardwood floors flow throughout the main living areas, creating a warm, cohesive feel. The heart of the home is the custom Amish-built kitchen, combining timeless craftsmanship with modern functionality - a perfect space for hosting family and friends. Updated bathrooms add style and comfort, while the primary suite offers a true retreat with a heated floor and luxurious two-headed shower. Energy efficiency and peace of mind come standard, thanks to R60 blown-in cellulose insulation in the attic and a new furnace and AC (2021). The wood burning fireplace in the living room also adds natural warmth. With its charming brick surround, spacious layout, and unbeatable location that is just minutes from shopping, commuter routes, and scenic state parks, 709 Foulkstone Road is more than a house. It’s a home where memories are made.
