6/3/22 BACK ON THE MARKET DUE TO THE BUYER BEING UNABLE TO OBTAIN FINANCING AT THE LAST MINUTE. UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY! - TWO HOUSES on one large lot in the always popular Brandywine Hundred community of Phillips Heights. - Let's begin at the front of the property. The main house (#7) is a substantial 1930's Colonial-style home with FIVE bedrooms and two full baths. In 2020 the roof was replaced with a NEW 35-year asphalt shingle. 2019 brought NEW vinyl siding along with NEW gutters and downspouts. NEW double-hung, energy-efficient windows were installed throughout the house (except in the kitchen) in 2015. The final days of 2021 was the perfect time for a NEW hot water heater. We enter the large (18x16) living room under the protection of the well-sized covered front porch. The benefits of this room include wall-to-wall carpeting, a lighted ceiling fan, crown molding, direct access to the sunroom with an exterior side entry, and a built-in bookcase to the right of the brick wood-burning fireplace with a wood-stove insert. The fireplace was cleaned and inspected in 2019. Next, we enter the well-sized (16x11) traditional dining room featuring hardwood flooring, two side-by-side banks of windows, a chair rail, and a classic six-lite chandelier above the table. The adjacent eat-in kitchen has durable laminate flooring and an exterior door leading out to the rear concrete patio and large grassy yard beyond. The main level also includes a primary bedroom suite with a closet and a tub/shower in the attached bathroom. This space currently serves as a multi-purpose room. Upstairs is a shared full bath with a walk-in shower and FOUR additional bedrooms that can accommodate a variety of needs. The second house on the property is known as 7 1/2. This self-contained ranch-style charmer also enjoys a NEW roof (2020), NEW siding (2019), and NEW windows (2015) except for the front-facing windows. Besides being handy for unloading groceries when it's raining, the carport is a great place to gather for warm-weather dining. The open floorplan is as popular today as when it was originally built. The large kitchen provides lots of cabinet space and features ceramic tile flooring. A small, covered porch off the primary bedroom leads out the rear yard. The bonus room with exterior access could serve as a terrific second bedroom or home office. NOTE: The two houses were combined to determine the total square footage, total bedroom count, and total bathroom count.
