Location, Location, Location! This 4-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod sits on a spacious corner lot and is situated right in the heart of Newark!! Walking distance to the UD campus and all the amazing restaurants on Main Street, but far enough away that you won’t have to deal with the noise. Step inside to a cozy layout, featuring LVP flooring throughout the living room, dining room, and kitchen, providing a modern and easy-to-maintain aesthetic. The main floor hosts two comfortably sized bedrooms with original hardwood floors, custom-built shelving, and complemented by a full bath, making it perfect for families or guests. Upstairs, you'll find an additional two bedrooms, each with carpeting that conceals the original hardwood flooring beneath—perfect for those who appreciate classic charm. A full bath completes the upper level, providing convenience. The main floor laundry hookup offers practicality, and if you prefer, it can be easily converted back to the basement. The expansive, unfinished basement spans the entire footprint of the home, presenting endless possibilities for customization. With a newer roof featuring 30-year architectural shingles—installed less than 10 years ago—and a large driveway accommodating at least three vehicles, this home is ready for you to move in and make it your own. Don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to live in a vibrant community close to all that Newark has to offer! Schedule a private tour today or come by our open house this weekend!
