Property Description
Welcome to this one-of-a-kind custom-built Cape Cod located in the tucked-away community of Woods on Herring Creek. Built in 1999 and lovingly maintained by its original owner, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sits on a beautiful half-acre partially wooded lot and offers character, craftsmanship, and thoughtful details throughout. The main level features a primary suite with a walk-in closet and private full bathroom, along with a traditional living and dining room combination, and half bath. The galley-style kitchen with Mexican tile flooring has an abundance of cabinet space and plenty of windows. Just off the kitchen is a convenient laundry area with its own sink and a small office/workspace. A beautiful sunroom was added in 2007 and features high plank ceilings, heated brick floors, and an abundance of windows overlooking the wooded setting. This bright and peaceful space is perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or creating your own indoor garden retreat. Upstairs are two large bedrooms, a full bathroom, and beautiful poplar wood flooring. Both bedrooms offer access to private balconies, while one bedroom also features a small wet bar area. The home's craftsmanship is truly distinctive, with exposed wood beams made directly from the forests in Pittsburgh, PA, a beautiful reclaimed and refinished banister from an old Pittsburgh industrial factory, and 2-inch-thick poplar cherry flooring. Additional features include a new roof in 2022, new hot water heater and HVAC system installed in 2026. Public water services the home, with a separate well for lawn and garden use. Don't foget the adorable custom built shed for lawn and garden equipment. Outside, enjoy a partially wooded half-acre setting, beautiful back patio, fresh landscaping, and freshly pressure-washed exterior. A screened-in breezeway connects the home to the detached two-car garage, which offers electricity, plumbing with sink and attic storage. Woods on Herring Creek offers a peaceful private setting while remaining just minutes from Delaware's beautiful beaches. The community amenities includes access to the community pool, gazebo, and tennis court. Schedule your tour today!
