Description

Beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod situated on a spacious 0.36-acre corner lot in the heart of Middletown. Perfectly located within walking distance to Appoquinimink schools, Main Street shopping, and all that downtown Middletown has to offer, this home blends timeless charm with modern updates. The stately brick exterior, lush landscaping, and split sidewalks set the tone as you approach, with two covered entrances providing convenient protection from the elements. Nearly every aspect of this home has been updated over the past decade, including a modern open-concept kitchen, renovated bathrooms, architectural shingle roof, newer windows, furnace, and interior paint throughout. Inside, gleaming hardwood floors flow through the living room, dining area, hallways, and bedrooms. The stunning kitchen boasts 42” shaker-style cabinetry with crown molding, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, tiled floors and backsplash, and a peninsula with bar seating. The kitchen opens to a bright living area anchored by a brick fireplace. The main level features two spacious bedrooms and an updated full bath, while the upper level offers two additional bedrooms, a renovated full bath, and a versatile flex space. The walk-out basement expands your options for future finishing potential. Outdoor living shines here—step from the kitchen into a large screened breezeway with epoxy-coated floors, ceiling fan, updated lighting, and a built-in brick grill for bug-free summer evenings. Prefer the sun? Relax on the newer Trex deck overlooking a landscaped backyard bordered by Rose of Sharon and Crepe Myrtle trees. The property also includes a two-car enclosed carport that can easily be converted into a garage, along with driveway parking for up to four additional vehicles. With its prime location, thoughtful updates, and charming outdoor spaces, this Middletown gem is a must-see!

The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
