Surrey Park - the highly desirable North Wilmington neighborhood you've been waiting for - now has for sale the largest home in nearly three years! This Cape Cod style home, built by renowned builder Pierce Crompton in 1968 using "antique" brick, sits on a quiet .35 acre lot with an uninterrupted view of nature. From the covered porch where you can enjoy a beverage with neighbors, enter the large foyer and notice the polished hardwood floors in wonderful condition having been protected by carpet for decades. The living room is bright and spacious with wood burning fireplace flanked by built in book cases. The living, dining room and kitchen are all freshly painted in a neutral, current color palette with Benjamin Moore Classic Grey and white trim. The eat-in kitchen is equipped with a Thermador stove top and GE double ovens and fan, white Corian counters and includes a NEW sliding door that allows the greenery and natural light of the backyard to flow into the home. Step out from the kitchen to the beautiful flagstone patio to enjoy a fire pit on cool nights, or lemonade on warm summer days. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large family room with built in bookcases and French doors leading to the screen porch; what better adornment to a comfortable home than a screen porch this time of year! And the circular flow is perfect for entertaining inside and out. The original owners lovingly maintained the home and added a full bath to the main level, enabling the office to also function as a main level bedroom. A conveniently located laundry room and access to the 2-car garage completes this level. The hardwood continues upstairs to a spacious hall and 4 bedrooms. The master is large with an en-suite bath and 2 closets. In addition, behind the walk-in closet, you will find a "secret" storage room which can store an entire household's worth of sporting gear or craft supplies, act as a playroom, or could even be expansion space for a larger master suite in the future. Three more generous bedrooms, a large hall bath and another enormous walk in storage closet are also found on this floor. The lower level expands the entire width of the house and has the potential to act as a game room space as well as workshop. The floor is clean and painted and provides even more storage. The location of Surrey Park and specifically this home, can't be beat. The neighborhood is conveniently located 3-10 minutes from almost every store anyone could need, good restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and access to major thoroughfares. Within the neighborhood, you will see many neighbors out taking leisurely walks, some with pets or on bikes, and enjoying the bucolic surrounding. The backyard faces the wide Shellpot creek and has an unobstructed private view. With virtually the entire home inside and out having fresh paint, the home is ready for you to move in today and and make it your own. Have you been dreaming of a spacious enough home to make your "forever home" in North Wilmington? If so, this home in Surrey Park is waiting for its second owner - which could be you!
