900 Overbrook Road

Wilmington, DE 19807

Welcome to this gracious stone Cape Cod in Westover Hills Woods where amazing curb appeal meets updated amenities and classic charm. The moment you drive into Overbrook Road you will feel at home. From the stone walkway, you’ll notice the garden of lush plantings which your neighbors will compliment you on frequently. The covered porch welcomes you to enter the home where you’ll notice the original custom wainscoting, the curve of the walls, the deep moldings, all custom architectural features of the 1930’s, very rarely recreated. To the right enter the large family room which carries the curved framing around the deep window sills and new Pella windows. A gas fireplace with original mantle and bookcase become a focal point and access to the sunroom provides circular flow. To the left find the charming, cozy “library” which could also be used as an office, playroom or dining room with built-ins and gas fireplace. At the end of the foyer enter the spacious, completely renovated kitchen/dining area. The dining area and could easily be converted to a sitting room with table. This chef’s kitchen with honed granite includes Subzero refrigerator/freezer, Wolf stove, double ovens & microwave, Bosch dishwasher, and two additional refrigerator drawers that can be used for beverages and more. Attached to the dining area is a wonderful sunroom! Currently an office/entertaining space, it could become a sitting room. New Marvin true divided light windows now create a sunroom/screen porch effect. A wet bar is conveniently located here as well as lower patio access. The mudroom has enclosed cabinets allowing you to keep it tidy! This back door accesses a patio with included natural gas grill and the gate to the driveway. Garage access also is found here conveniently located near the kitchen for all your Wegman’s grocery shopping trips. The backyard is fully fenced with multiple gates and spacious level play area. An upper patio is large enough to hold a table for 10 and provides beautiful views. Notice the outdoor speakers located around the yard for your entertainment enjoyment. Both the back and front yards include up lighting as well as irrigation. For the parcel across the creek, the owners piped water across the bridge to ensure that all of your plantings remain healthy year ‘round. The second level of the home includes 4 spacious bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a dressing room! The primary suite is spacious and includes a gas fireplace! Note again the old world charm of the built in bookshelf and cabinets. The deep window sills on the front of the home on both levels include plantation shutters for privacy and a clean look. The primary bath has two separate sinks and extra storage with clean lines in pretty tan marble and white cabinets. This bath connects with one of the surprises of the home, the incredible custom closet/dressing room. This room was originally the 5th bedroom of the home, likely a nursery. While the closets are built in, the center island shoe cabinet is moveable. Across the hall find 2 large bedrooms which share an updated bathroom. From the middle bedroom enter the back hall which includes the 3rd full bath, a spacious laundry room and the 4th bedroom all also accessed by the stairs from the kitchen. This office/bedroom will easily hold a double bed and includes deep closets. The 3rd floor is a spacious bonus room! Used as exercise/hang out room, it has tremendous storage and an enormous cedar closet! The dry basement is unfinished and has 3 separate rooms and egress. Ventilation is great allowing for a wonderful workshop, “wine room” and bountiful storage. No detail in this home has been left untouched from the Circa brand lighting to the lovingly created and maintained gardens and the Generac 10Kw generator! You will fall all in love with the neighborhood grounds and the charm and updated amenities that this home brings! Seller is licensed DE Realtor
