Description

Presenting 1 Lantern Lane, a classic 4-bedroom colonial home in the coveted and rarely available North Wilmington community of Dartmouth Woods. Offered by its long time owners, who have lovingly maintained and updated the home, it is ready for new memories. On its premium corner lot, it has striking appeal with its newer roof (2020), attractive vinyl siding (2020), and the weeping mortar brickwork complemented by the neat landscaping. A flagstone walkway welcomes you up to the house and onto the front covered porch. The Larson storm door and smart front door hint of the quality you will find inside.

Just inside is the formal living room. The fresh neutral paint lets you know the house is ready to move-in. To the left, are stairs leading up to the bedroom level and the entrance to the family room as well as an oversized coat closet. Original solid white oak hardwood floors run throughout most of the house. Abundant natural light from the large front window bathes the living room area. Throughout the home, are high quality energy-efficient windows.

Heading back from the living room, is the spacious dining room with ample room for both formal and daily meals. Large French doors open to the sunroom and a great view of the semi-private backyard. With its carpeted floors and three sides of windows, the sunroom is the perfect place to savor morning brew or gather inspiration any time of day surrounded by the beautiful view. The tall, casement windows provide a great option let in the breeze on milder days. (Note approx 156 SF, not included in the county estimate)

Inside, continuing to the kitchen, attractive simulated wood laminate floors run along the rear of the house. For kitchen storage, plentiful 42-inch maple cabinets and a convenient large pantry cabinet with pull-out shelves. Newer appliances meet all your needs, while the deep sink is super convenient. You will also appreciate the vented range hood. LED lighting brightens the space, while the over-sink window looks out onto the grassy yard.

Also in the rear hall, is the convenient powder room (2010), and just beyond, the laundry area with a washer and dryer, and doors to access to the attached garage, and the backyard.

The oversized, meticulously clean 2 car garage has a smart door opener with a built-in camera. Outside, the pristine concrete driveway offers plenty of parking for several cars.

Heading back to the front of the house via the cozy family room with more hardwood floors and the wood-burning fireplace.

Upstairs, the four bedrooms await, all with hardwood floors and generous closets. The expansive master bedroom offers space for any furniture and has an en-suite bath and a walk-in closet. The upper level is completed with a shared full bathroom with a large tub/shower combination.

The basement is a slate for your imagination. Of course, there is ample storage space, but this clean and open area could easily be tamed to host a game table, exercise equipment, or a TV area. The utility systems, including a Carrier gas furnace, a 200-amp electrical panel, and a newer gas water heater, are also housed here.

Outdoors, enjoy the lush backyard, accessed from the sunroom or the utility room exits. There is a large concrete patio for grilling and sitting outside with guests, as well as a beautiful maple tree adding to the serene ambiance of the surroundings.

Dartmouth Woods is conveniently located close to all the great North Wilmington amenities with shopping and restaurants of all sorts just minutes away on Route 202, the Brandywine Town Center, and other nearby shopping centers. Booths Corner Farmers Market, the Produce Junction, and more are within easy reach, while Wegmans and Whole Foods are conveniently situated a few minutes up Route 202.
