Property Description

Welcome to this stunning Georgian colonial 6-7 bedroom, 4-full bath, 1 half bath stately center hall brick home with 5200 SF of finished living space! Lining leafy Kentmere Parkway between Rockford and Brandywine parks in Wilmington, DE, this desirable home has been impeccably cared for and renovated from top to bottom. Just steps away from the Delaware Art Museum, Trolley Square, Greenville, DE and downtown Wilmington, this location offers convenient access to the area’s local attractions, such as Winterthur Museum Garden & Library and Longwood Gardens! The plantings and gardens surrounding the home offer an abundance of color when in bloom and a tranquil setting to enjoying the outdoor space. As you tour the home, note the beautifully finished hardwood floors, oversized, period windows, 9’ ceilings, marble thresholds, granite window headers and architectural dormers plus millwork and wainscoting throughout the home! Enter the home from the brick porch that spans the width of the home! Step through the entrance with wide divided side transom windows into the gorgeous foyer with its grand, handsome staircase. The bright, spacious living room has a traditional wood-burning fireplace, and over-sized curved windows allowing an abundance of natural light. Exit the double French doors to enjoy an open covered porch overlooking the backyard. The formal dining room features an amazing bay window with a curved bench seat. Continue through the butler’s pantry into the large kitchen to enjoy the tumbled marble backsplash and granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including counter-depth refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and double-wall ovens, plus a marble-tiled floor and white-tin ceiling. This kitchen is a dream for the chef in the family. The island has a gas cooktop and a bar-height counter for seating for four. Storage abounds in the 42” cabinets and floor-to-ceiling pantry space. There is room for a 12-person table or a sitting area for everyone to congregate in the heart of the home. The rear staircase is adjacent to the kitchen making access to the second-floor bedrooms convenient. A fun feature is the floor powder room decorated in 3-D mosaic tiles! The den or office overlooks the backyard through an expansive bay window. The wood-burning fireplace and built-in cabinets make this a cozy room plus allows accesses to the covered porch through a set of French doors. As one ascends the expansive staircase, natural light abounds through the lead-based windows providing a beautiful view to the backyard. Reaching the second story landing, one can retreat to the primary bedroom. Naturally bright with four windows and a French door, which leads to a rooftop area, there is a linen closet, a shoe closet, and a walk-in closet room with an island dresser. The primary bath is beautifully designed with natural, cream tones using tumbled marble for the backsplash, floor, and walk-in shower. A dual-sink vanity and soaking tub complete this relaxing oasis. Across the hall one enters the second and third bedrooms, which are connected via a Jack-n-Jill bathroom. The fourth bedroom is a private ensuite with a walk-in shower. Don’t miss the laundry room in the second-floor rear hallway, with a stackable washer, dryer and laundry tub. Climbing the grand staircase to the third floor, more abundant light filters through a row of windows leading to the final landing where two spacious bedrooms tuck into the dormers. The final third-floor room is currently a game and family room making it a perfect place to entertain family and guests. The home features an elevator that may be put back into operation or serve as part of the décor reminding one of an earlier time. The property includes a two-car detached garage and the full basement with an external staircase offering plenty of additional storage space. With so many enhancements and features, this pristine home is one to make your own!
