Description
Welcome to Collins Park! A quaint and quiet community located in New Castle County proper consisting of masonry built ranch and colonial homes of a by gone era, within walking distance to local shopping attractions, educational facilities as well as highways that can whisk you away to NJ, Maryland and beyond! Curb appeal abounds the moment you put it in park and step out onto your fresh concrete walkway, leading to the front door. Across the threshold, you will be greeted with a versatile space perfect for collecting coats, jackets and shoes on one side, and then a quiet reading or sitting area on the other. Up the steps and into the great room which is drenched with natural light thanks to a plethora of recessed lights, side windows, and a neutral theme that reflects good vides throughout. Breakfast bar overlooking your gourmet kitchen providing a proper culinary preparation experience. White shaker cabinets topped with quartz, flanked with a groovy glass backsplash and finished off with a stainless appliance package. Rear door leading to fenced in yard with concrete patio overlooking your grassy knoll will be much appreciated once the Spring hits. The secret in this home however is up next. And that is a very rare, fully finished lower level, with full tile bath, laundry, bedroom and egress window. This provides that extra amount of space that makes this the goldilocks ranch. Spacious bedroom with ample closet space, recreation and family living area, all serviced with a tiled full bath. Back to the main level and down the hall where you'll find three more sleeping chambers with thoughtful storage elements. Another full tiled bath services this level. Everything here is brand new from roof, siding, windows, HVAC, electric, plumbing, hot water tank, drywall, trim, interior doors, and more. This will ensure years of minimal maintenance expenditures coupled with efficient operational dynamics. Don't hesitate to make this your new home for the Holidays!

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. 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.
