This space is ideal for hosting dinner parties, with room for a massive table and built-in corner shelving. The large eat-in kitchen is a chef's dream, offering ample cabinet and counter space, a peninsula for seating, an island for prepping, and a convenient desk area. The wall ovens, dishwasher, and microwave were upgraded just one year ago. This multifunctional space includes an eat-in area, perfect for family meals. Adjacent to the kitchen is a charming four-seasons room, bathed in sunlight, providing a tranquil sanctuary for relaxation.

Easily maintain the lush beauty of the yard with the built-in sprinkler irrigation system. Back inside, check out the spacious family room, adorned with stunning architectural wood accents, high ceilings, and a stone-front fireplace with built-in bookshelves, adding character and elegance to the space. Lastly, on the first floor, with entrances from both the foyer and the kitchen, is a versatile room that can serve as an office or fifth bedroom, with potential for an in-law suite, given the presence of a full bathroom with a standing shower on this floor. Make your way to the finished basement, where entertainment options continue. This area includes a cozy sitting area, a fourth full bath, a corner bar area with seating, and a large area for exercise equipment or a play/sitting area. For wine lovers, the basement offers a temperature-regulated wine room. The basement also includes ample storage space and access to the oversized three-car garage. To complete your tour, ascend the stairs to the second floor and explore the wrap-around balcony. The primary bedroom suite is spacious, featuring built-in shelves, a large walk-in closet, and a built-in vanity by a window for natural light. The recently renovated primary bathroom boasts a large walk-in shower with beautiful tile, a bench, and clear glass to showcase the design, as well as an updated vanity with double sinks. Down the hall, you'll find the updated hallway bath and three additional generously sized bedrooms, one of which is complete with a powder room and entryways from both the balcony and hallway. The windows were updated throughout the home in 2019. This home epitomizes elegant living in the highly sought-after Hockessin Valley Falls community.
