Property Description
A stone driveway inspired by classic New England homes carries you more than 200 feet back from the road, past rows of evergreens planted for privacy, and into a setting that feels like its own world. Here, on approximately 10.5 acres of open lawn, woodland trails and a peaceful creek, sits a custom-built K. Wolf Colonial with 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths and AR zoning possibilities. This one is truly something special.
A columned portico welcomes you into a grand foyer where hardwood floors gleam beneath crystal chandeliers. Stately columns frame the formal living room on one side and the dining room on the other, each with soaring ceilings and arched Palladian windows that fill the rooms with light. Just beyond the dining room, the stunning curved staircase makes its entrance, sweeping upward in a graceful arc that sets the tone for the entire home.
The cherry kitchen is the heart of the main level, with leathered granite counters, a center island with gas cooking and stainless appliances. It opens to a bay-windowed morning room with a pantry, where sunlight pours in from three sides, and to a vaulted keeping room warmed by a wood-burning fireplace. The family room offers a gas fireplace and two sets of French doors to the deck, and a private office with a vaulted ceiling is tucked just beyond.
The curved staircase delivers you to an open landing crowned by a dramatic barrel ceiling and crystal chandelier. The primary suite is a true retreat, with a stepped tray ceiling, a wall of windows overlooking the grounds and a bay-windowed sitting room. Two enormous walk-in closets, his and hers, are practically rooms of their own, and the vaulted en-suite bath features dual vanities, a whirlpool tub and a separate shower. Two bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bathroom, and a fourth bedroom, another full bath, a laundry room and bonus storage complete the second floor.
The daylight basement is 75% finished and adds an entirely separate level for recreation, with a large recreation room, a second office, a gym area and a full bath, plus plenty of unfinished storage.
Outside, the property becomes a nature lover's dream. A Trex deck overlooks the grounds, with a gazebo, an herb garden, a fire pit and a shaded picnic grove at the edge of the woods. The land is a National Wildlife Federation Certified Wildlife Habitat, cared for without chemicals, and the wildlife knows it: deer, birds and countless other visitors make daily appearances.
Built in 2010 and lovingly maintained by its original owners, the home features energy-efficient geothermal heating and cooling in two zones, 400-amp electric service, an owned water conditioner and a three-car garage. Propane fuels the gas fireplace, the cooktop and the tankless water heater. The property also features an extensively improved raised stone driveway, constructed with approximately 300 tons of #57 stone for a substantial base and drainage and edged with retaining-wall borders.
From the moment you turn up the long stone drive, this property feels removed from the everyday while keeping direct access to Route 13 and Route 1 and all that Middletown offers. Space. Privacy. Nature. Custom craftsmanship. It offers room to live, work, entertain and enjoy every season. Buyer to verify zoning and permitted uses with New Castle County. Some photos are virtually staged.
