Property Description
thriving shrubs, brick front steps and side screened-in porch nestled in historic downtown Smyrna.
Located merely 2 blocks from the town's recognized 4 corners, the home was originally built as the
parsonage of the church across the street. This delightful home boasts myriads of preserved
architectural elements artfully blended with modern must-have features. Step inside to welcoming
entryway of closet and era-accurate radiator along with deep alcove, perfect for hooks, bench/side
table. Appreciate original rich hardwood floors and original woodwork, including 6-inch+ baseboards,
wide trim, and lovely crown molding throughout home. Beautiful hardwood staircase sits to right, while
oversize entrance grants access to FR of Colonial blue paint, triple window and white brick gas FP. Gem
of home is the screened-in side porch that is truly 3-season delightful space with exposed brick wall and
room for collection of wicker furniture. Porch affords views to the lush, level, private fenced-in backyard
where beautiful sycamore tree offers shade and blue/white trim dual-door shed provides storage space
for outdoor equipment and seasonal items. It's ideal place to enjoy morning coffee, afternoon reading
and evening snacks! Oversized entrance is echoed from FR into sizable DR where hardwoods continue
and handsome built-in China cabinet adorns a corner. Wonderful, combined space to entertain! Subway
tile floored kitchen is sizable, thanks to the removal of a wall for dining spot, and features solid oak
cabinets paired with white pulls, while white appliances and granite countertops highlight white tile
backsplash enhanced with floral/bird accent tiles and darker trim. Unfinished LL has both work bench
and crawl space but offers opportunity for cozy playroom or craft space. French door from DR leads out
to extended space of 12-year young addition. Light hardwood floored hallway precedes frosted-glass
pocket door that slides back to reveal huge, modern, clean-lined full spa-bathroom with tile floor, all-tile
shower with ceramic glass accents, custom-built clay color cabinet, and claw footed tub in all-tile walled
windowed niche. Relax and reset in this serene surround! Additionally enjoy flex room of fitness area, 3 rd
BR or rec room with ceiling fan, beadboard accent wall, floor-to-ceiling custom cabinet and access to
outdoors. Great extra space! Beyond are double folding doors that easily access W & D. Turned
staircase with volume ceiling in foyer leads up to landing with window and continues to upper level to
hallway that features pull-down steps to floored attic, wonderful for seasonal storage. Secondary BR
showcases beautiful hardwood floors and continued wide baseboards, while triple window allows for
abundant natural light. Angled ceiling, all-wood closet is clever use of space, and adjacent is deep
alcove, ideal for hutch! Custom-made built-in cabinets with blue hardware, gray/soft blue beadboard
and ceiling medallion create a beautiful full bath. Primary BR echoes original hardwoods, triple window,
and walk-in closet with original door as well as adjacent alcove perfect for hutch or desk. Tucked off flex
room and down brick steps is brick floored, outdoor, private, gated tree-shrouded courtyard with dining
table/chairs. Enchanting and perfect perch from dawn to dusk. An oasis! Inviting home with a touch of
old-world characteristics effortlessly blended with modern amenities. Home has plenty of off-street
parking and is conveniently nestled between Dover and Wilmington, and a short drive to major beaches.
Splendid home in Smyrna!
