Property Description
Here it is! A rare opportunity to live in Christiansted, perhaps Newarks most sought after neighborhood.
Located just minutes from Downtown Newark and the University of Delaware, convenient shopping,
dining and recreation options are all right here. Hike the trails of the White Clay Creek State Park, or
perhaps catch a round of golf at the Newark Country Club. Youll be in the 5 mile radius of the popular
Newark Charter School as well. Situated on a .77 acre wooded lot in a quiet cul de sac, this lovely brick Colonial boasts over 3500 sq feet of living space above ground, and another 1000 in the walkout finished
basement. The sellers are the original owners of the property, maintaining and updating it through the
years. Inside youll be greeted by the grand 2 story foyer, full of light from the Palladian window, with a
gracefully curved staircase. This home was the builders model for this part of the neighborhood and
many luxury touches were incorporated into the design. The living room features a bay window, while
the formal dining room is enhanced by wainscoting: both rooms include crown molding. Towards the
back of the home, youll enter the family room, framed by transom windows. A corner set gas fireplace is
a focal point in the room. The layout flows into the open eat in kitchen with center island. Bright white
custom cabinetry is enhanced by premium level granite, upgraded backsplash with decorative
hand-painted Portuguese tile, and a suite of stainless steel appliances. Glass slider doors open onto one
of the homes multiple decks which overlook a stream and mature trees-the perfect place to retreat to
enjoy nature or bbq. There is even a dedicated gas line for your grill. No more running out of propane!
Just off of the kitchen, a convenient home office awaits you, with its own private access onto a dedicated
deck. Dual HVAC systems were replaced in 2021 and the roof was replaced in 2016: the roof warranty is
transferable. Leaf guards keep the gutter system maintenance free. The 2nd floor provides 4 bedrooms
and 2 full baths. Lets talk about the owners suite. This wonderful haven is truly unique. The updated
en suite bath is lit with natural light from skylights above It offers both a jetted tub and a recently
remodeled tile shower. A walk-in closet provides storage something this home has plenty of. Step
outside through sliders onto yet another secluded deck. Wood beams and cathedral ceilings are
distinctive features of this room along with a spacious loft area accessed by a spiral staircase. Currently
used as a second home office, this dramatic space could be utilized in a multitude of ways. 3 additional
bedrooms share a full hall bath, including the back bedroom measuring 16 x 13 - huge for a secondary
bedroom! A huge finished lower level with a full bath awaits your vision and all of your stuff, so bring
the gym equipment, the toys and the giant tv - there's room for it all! This daylight basement accesses
another outdoor deck. All homes are not created equal. If you're seeking a home with space, character
and unique features tucked into a prime location, 77 Hidden Valley Drive could be the one.
