Property Description
Nestled in a secluded enclave in idyllic Brandywine Hills is this custom-designed, mid-century modern brick home that was built in 1958. Designed by Dyam Allen Winthrop, a student of Frank Llyod Wright and local famed architect. The home features distinct architectural flair and an artistic presence like none other. Offering original features. Myriad of windows, open sun-infused spaces, and angles and soaring ceilings collectively blend to create this extraordinary, rarely available 1-level living 3 BRS/2.5B N. Wilm. home with carport and bonus spaces. Home updates include replaced boiler (2024), replaced several windows/added leaf filter gutter system (2023), installed/painted new carport roof (2022), replaced sewer line/reglazed ceiling in glass-walled atrium (2018), installed gutters over studio/installed new downspouts (2014), replaced roof/reconditioned chimney (2010) and more. Towering trees, brilliant blooms, and thriving landscaping dot this .33 lot to provide a secluded backdrop, perfect for a home that was intentionally designed to meld with its natural setting. Step into vaulted ceiling foyer with striking original wrought iron railing and immediately appreciate the details and craftsmanship of home such as wood paneling, hardwood flooring, exposed brick, vibrantly colored trim, and abundance of windows throughout. Upscale eat-in kitchen features handsome butternut wood cabinetry and fuses beautifully with high-end appliances including Absolute black granite countertops, built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator, Dacor cooktop, Dacor convection microwave (2023), GE Profile convection oven (2024) and Asko W & D, as well as sizable pantry with pull outs. Morning room sits adjacent to main kitchen and is sunlit and ideal for dawn-to-dusk dining, with convenient separate laundry room and PR just past. Seamless, hardwood floored FR and DR span back of home with wall of windows/French doors, floor-to-ceiling brick FP and access to elevated deck, offering fluid floorplan and views to scenic wooded backyard. Boundaries of these rooms are subtly distinguished through furniture and rug placement and incredible views can be appreciated from nearly every spot. DR boasts built-in cabinets with Absolute black granite countertop that offer extra storage and serving space, while French doors lead to spacious, sunken side screened-in porch, where one can curl up with a best-selling novel and relish views to a backyard of brilliant greenery. Apart from main living areas there are 3 large, carpeted BRs, 2 full baths and delightful den with build-ins and access to deck. Also, note the copious closets and stunning custom lighting throughout home. Treasure of home is the walk-out lower level! It is comprised of a generous artist studio, renovated in 2001 by owner and artist, with approximately 5 ft. by 15 ft. custom built-in concrete worktable/island with built-in storage, and electrical connectivity. From studio, step to this sunken 362 sq. ft. all-season solarium with heated tile floor added in 2001 that is sun-drenched and can function as spectacular work or entertaining space with access to outdoors and the breathtaking surroundings. No extra effort necessary to make this space inviting! This is a lifestyle statement home. Situated inside city limits and in a park-like, sought-after community of ribbons of sidewalks, mature-aged trees and black wrought iron lamp posts, home is steps away from DE greenway trails and offers easy access to Philadelphia and the eastern corridor. A rare find situated in one of N. Wilmington's most sought after communities!
