The sweetest spot to call home with the benefits of being in city limits, close to downtown Milford and hooked up to natural gas, with beautifully planned landscaping and mature trees that make it a private oasis. Built in 1930, the current owners purchased it in 1980 and have thoughtfully renovated and made improvements and additions over the years to honor craftsmanship and maintain character. The owners were thorough in their renovations and progressive in their design choices, all while staying consistent with the original house style. All of the furniture has been removed, giving buyers a blank slate to envision where their furniture will go and how to use the spaces to their liking.
The 1997 addition of the the master bedroom with ensuite and closet and den with half bath was done by local contractor Brendan T. Warfel. The 2003 renovation included adding the detached back house, heated inground pool and pool patio with a treated wood canopy that has roll down shades and two ceiling fans. The detached back house is 615 square feet (est) and includes a living room, kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms. There are many possibilities on how the back house could be utilized. The 2010 renovation was to the main house and included the kitchen and dining room. Part of the dining room renovation was the replacement of the dining room floor joists .
As soon as you walk in the front door of the main house you will notice the hand-crafted staircase and as you make your way through, additional highlights are lots of windows for natural light, 6" wood baseboards and a kitchen with custom solid wood kitchen cabinets by MH Cabinets of Milford and granite countertops from Ancient Art Stone of Milford. A built-in desk area is next to the kitchen and the den could be used as an at-home office space. Doors could be added to this den space, to make it an at-home office and provide privacy from the kitchen, as a door already exists between the master bedroom and den. The master bedroom has an ensuite, complete with a marble countertop, jetted garden tub and fully tiled walk-in shower with bench. The master walk-in closet has existing wire shelving and a small built in wall safe for your valuables. A "Pet Safe" door, suitable for a small or smaller medium-sized pet, is installed in the master bedroom and leads to the 9' x 8' master deck that is accessed by french doors by the pet's humans.
Outside the home and once in the fenced side and back yard spaces, everything you could ever want is there! A side yard with grass, a mature maple tree and bird feeders to attract Delaware wildlife. The back yard has a small greenhouse and an existing cement pad and natural gas hook-up for grilling. There are landscaping beds between the master deck and back house deck, that have stone and low maintenance plants currently. Saving the best for last, the inground heated and saltwater pool is complete with lots of patio space for relaxing and entertaining. Just outside the pool fence, is a raised garden bed and around the corner is an outside workbench and two sheds for storage. For home storage space, there is the attic with walk-up steps and the basement with outside Bilco doors.
