This home is uniquely fitting for the owners to enjoy the option of having living and sleeping areas on separate levels, or for a home-share situation. The lower level is on a concrete slab with carpet throughout the bedroom and den for a comfortable cozy atmosphere. The back porch leads to an open deck with stairs that access the backyard sanctuary and the lower-level walk-out patio. All of this under a new roof installed in 2021.

Area schools are very close by, including St. Marks and Dickinson high schools and Heritage Elementary and Skyline Middle schools located just at the top edge of this very walkable community. The community is surrounded by many convenient amenities such as Heritage Park for recreation, Meadowood Shopping Center, Limestone Shopping Center and the abundance of restaurants, grocery markets and shopping centers along Kirkwood Highway.

Also close by are Christiana Hospital, several medical professional centers, Delaware Park Casino and The Christiana Mall, a major sales-tax-free shopping destination. The University of Delaware and Town of Newark amenities and attractions are also nearby just a couple of miles south and so is the Maryland state line.
