706 NOTTINGHAM RD, Wilmington, DE, 19805

Charming semi-detached Old-English style colonial in the quiet, historical City of Wilmington neighborhood of Wawaset Park, where stately properties on tree lined streets with sidewalks create a serene, old world feeling that is truly unique for the area. This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom property is only available due to a job relocation. Original hardwood floors run throughout much of the home from the cozy foyer to the living room, family room with cathedral ceiling, and dining room. The bright, family room addition is just off of the living room through newly installed french doors and is larger than similar homes in the community. Access to the rear enclosed garden style backyard is from the updated galley kitchen as well as from the finished lower level. A bedroom and bathroom on each of the two upper floors ensure total privacy. The primary suite offers a large divided en-suite, cleverly affording guests access to a powder room separate from the primary bathroom. Numerous thoughtful updates throughout the property have been made by this Seller. Kitchen wall cabinets were replaced, new quartz countertops were installed in kitchen and butler’s pantry along with a double drawer Fisher & Paykel dishwasher and a double oven. A built-in corner cabinet was added in the dining room, ceiling lights were replaced with Rejuvenation fixtures, and the main staircase was restored with new woodwork and carpeting. It is easy to spread out in the house with the loft on the top level, great for use as an office or craft space, as well as the finished basement with a perfect amount of space for recreation and/or exercise. A brightly lit laundry closet and the mechanical room complete the space on the lower level. The rear outdoor space is delightful and very private, with colorful seasonal plantings to enjoy. An added bonus is the private driveway one can access from the back gate - envied by many in the neighborhood. Not to be overlooked is the sense of community in Wawaset Park, where neighbors (and their pets) walking by may outnumber slow passing vehicles; and community gatherings such as parades, picnics and seasonal events are held each year. And, oh - so convenient. six minute drive to Wegman's; a short walk to public transportation and several restaurants. Easy access to the highway. Additional updates to this property include freshly painted interior walls, newer boiler (2019), and multi zoned mini split air conditioning (2019), newer roof (2017), and a freshly stained fence. This old house is move in ready!
