Property Description

Rebuilt and thoughtfully redesigned, this Fairfield two-story sits on a quiet, low-traffic street in a wonderful, established West Newark community. Following a 2002 fire, the home was reconstructed with a reimagined layout, new windows, new siding, and many upgrades, making it truly one of a kind. Meticulously maintained by retired sellers in a pet-free and smoke-free home, it offers a long list of recent improvements. The stunning kitchen features cherry cabinetry, Corian countertops, recessed lighting, a pantry, a new LG refrigerator (2026), a new flat-top stove (2026), and a breakfast bar with bar stools included. A large dining area opens through a new patio door (2023) to the rear patio, shaded in the evening for relaxing outdoor meals, and overlooks a large, flat, fenced backyard with no homes behind you. Pocket doors connect the living and dining rooms, with hardwood floors that continue through the spacious entry hall and into the family room, where a beautiful brick fireplace sets a warm tone. A private main-level office with pocket and French doors is ideal for working from home, and surround sound fills the first floor. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms include the primary suite with a private full bath, tile floors, and a large walk-in closet. Other updates include a walk-in shower (2024), three new Comfort Height toilets, and new carpet (2026). The full basement sits on high ground and stays very dry, with plenty of storage racks included. Peace of mind comes with a roof and water heater from 2017, a 3.5-ton central air system (2024) with annual furnace and A/C maintenance, new 200-amp electrical service with surge protection (2026), a new front gutter (2023), new smoke and carbon monoxide detectors (2025), and an interior and exterior security system with motion-detection lighting. A two-car garage with openers and a low-maintenance exterior complete the picture. University of Delaware, Food Lion, a pharmacy, restaurants, and veterinary clinics are all within one block. The sellers are relocating to enjoy their retirement and are happy to leave many items for the new owners.
