City living at its finest! Just two blocks from the University of Delaware and within walking distance of Main Street, this beautifully refreshed brick ranch puts Newark’s vibrant dining and entertainment scene close to home. Enjoy local favorites like Deer Park, Klondike Kate’s, and the new Rockwell’s on Main! Situated on a desirable corner lot in Greater Newark, this true four-bedroom, two-full-bath home blends classic character with thoughtful updates. An architectural shingle roof less than four years old, an HVAC system less than three years old, and a Bosch outdoor AC condenser offer added peace of mind. Fresh paint throughout and brand-new carpeting create a bright, inviting feel, with hardwood floors beneath the carpeting. Both full bathrooms feature beautifully preserved 1950s tilework that looks as though it has hardly been used. Four bedrooms provide flexibility for everyday living, guests, or a home office. A breezeway connects the home to an approximately 500-square-foot, detached two-car garage with an automatic garage door opener. The asphalt driveway provides parking for four vehicles, and the picket-fenced backyard offers a charming outdoor retreat. The bright, wide-open full basement offers tremendous potential for additional finished living space. Explore adding bedrooms with proper egress or another bathroom, subject to required permits and approvals. With timeless brick construction, substantial recent updates, and a location that brings the best of Newark to your doorstep, this is one you won’t want to miss!
