Property Description
Hands-down winner on Hawthorne Dr.! Appreciate 1930s master craftsmanship melded with modern must-haves in this stunning, renovated home in the select community of Brandywine Hills. Charming bump-out front glass-pane entryway, new slate walkway, copper landscape lights, lamp post and thriving new hedges anchored by cone-shaped evergreens and multi-season perennials front this stately professionally-maintained stone exterior trimmed with Williamsburg blue shutters. 3 (LG) BRs, 2.5 bath home that exudes grand style. Updates include new hot water heater, new HVAC, new paint, trim, hardware throughout, crown molding added in many rooms, professionally refinished radiators, updated appliances and more. This home stays true to its original period with refinished original hardwood floors, deep inset windows, wide baseboards, recessed radiators, glass door knobs and even front door brass mail slot, yet boasts an unmatched circular floor plan and abundance of natural light. To left of foyer is LR where 4 windows flank striking white-wood gas FP. Area carpet lends both warmth and layer of subtle color, and crown molding gives hint of elegance. Glass doors lead to spectacular sunroom that offers getaway, gathering spot and great views through 4 sets of glass sliders. Exposed stone wall and matching bronze wrought iron lights lend rustic touch. Enjoy indoor comfort with outdoor ambiance! Off sunroom is spacious side stone elevated terrace surrounded by beds of greenery and perennials, and where warm weather calls for outdoor breakfasts and family-friendly BBQs. Farm-style white divided glass pane door leads into heart of home of hardwood floors and triple window with deep ledges, where homes personality can be highlighted. Side door grants access to quaint porch and to both driveway and freshly painted 2-car garage with earlier era accent wall of block lead glass. FR and kitchen are open to each other, continuing easy-movement floor plan. Extended granite countertop spills over into FR and offers stool seating for coffee, snacks and casual dining. Light cherry cabinets meld into earth-hued countertops and extra-large beige ceramic tile floor, and mix well with Bosch DW, Amana stove and SS Whirlpool refrigerator. Deep window offers standing invitation for herbs and plants to take root! Alcove off kitchen touts floor-to-ceiling dual-door pantry where organization is made easy-and-breezy, plus access to LL with refinished epoxy floor, new walk-up basement door and storage (including cedar closet), and PR with continued ceramic tile floor and charming beadboard. Wrap around to DR where style is timeless with hardwoods, chair rail, and crown molding. Delightful bay window features triple cabinets below that are both beautiful and space savers! Hardwood floors, brand new trim, and glass door knobs are repeated on 2nd level. Secondary BR sits above DR so it also shares extra space with bay window, along with deep closet and cherry ceiling fan. Iconic B & W full bath touts pedestal sink and roomy linen closet. Other secondary BR is sweeping with full-size closets flanking each side of door, plus bump-out footage on both sides of room. One side boasts triple window, while other side displays built-in bookcase, and additional alcove has 2 storage compartments. Hall has floor-to-ceiling closets with cabinets above that is great for storing blankets, linens, and extra pillows. DD closets and 4 windows confirm size of MBR, which is spacious and light-filled. Private bath has pedestal sink, shower and porthole window. Quiet tree-shrouded, sodded backyard is brilliant in color during warm seasons and lush with evergreens in winter. Mins. from I-95 and Rt. 202 corridor, less than 10 mins. to Wilmington and train station, and 20 mins. to Phil. Airport. Amazing and accessible!
