4013 Old Capitol Trail

Wilmington, Delaware 19808

This quaint farmhouse colonial is going to steal your heart! Build in 1928 when craftsmanship mattered, this adorable home has been painstakingly renovated by its current owners to provide modern finishes without sacrificing its old world charm. Pull into the long, private driveway that offers enough space to park at least four cars (not to mention the space on the road alongside the house!) Access the front door through the cozy screened porch that's shaded and kept private by two large evergreen trees that flank the front of the house and help keep it cool in the summer months and protect it from the cold air in the winter months. Note the beautiful original woodwork as you walk through the large family room with wood-burning fireplace and spotless windows that allow natural light to flow into the house. Continue to the large eat-in kitchen with exposed beams; white granite countertops; oversized farm sink with upscale pullout spray faucet; Fisher & Paykel drawer dishwasher with panels to match the cabinetry; five-burner slide-in gas range with griddle, pot filler, and decorative tile backsplash; French-door fridge with double freezer drawers; and a walk-in pantry that could easily be converted to a powder room. Walk out the quaint mudroom to the private backyard that offers both a back deck for grilling, and a large side deck for entertaining or just relaxing in the shade with a cold beverage. Head upstairs to find the beautifully updated bathroom featuring cast-iron tub with gorgeous tile surround and built-in tile shelves, and a large sink with gooseneck faucets coming out of the wall; three comfortably-sized bedrooms; and walk-up attic with access hidden by a bookcase door (WHAT?!?). This amazing house is located in the Red Clay Consolidated School District; it's an easy 10ish-minute drive into either Wilmington or Newark, and it's convenient to I-95, Route 1, Christiana Care, Christiana Mall, Delaware Park, and everything you could possibly need - tons of restaurants, retail shopping, Carousel Park, Delcastle Rec and Golf Course, urgent care centers, fitness centers, and grocery stores (Planet Fitness and Aldi are literally around the corner!) It won't last long in this market, so schedule your tour today!
