About this home
Welcome to Academy Place, a private enclave in the heart of the Brandywine. Just a few steps away from paths along the Brandywine River, less than a 10 minute walk to the Delaware Art Museum and Rockford Park and around the corner from restaurants, this community is tucked in a little corner of Wilmington that you wouldn’t find unless you knew to look!
The front of the home where guests may walk up from a stroll along the park is a gardener's paradise with a city garden set among benches and a brick patio. Just enough greenery but not too much! You will most often come into the entrance from your large 2-car garage (a rare find in the city!). From this entrance you will find the upscale kitchen with easy access to the patio for entertaining. Redesigned by the original owners it has a modern vibe with high quality cabinets, Subzero refrigerator, double ovens and more. Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining area which can double as dining/family room. You'll also access the front of the home with the patio garden from here.
Take the stairs or the elevator to the next level where you'll find a large family room waiting your creative use. Family room/game room, maybe additional dining, office? Built in bookcases grace this flexible space. (See virtual staging photos for some ideas). A balcony large enough for a bistro table and chairs provides a view of the peaceful and lush surroundings. Also on this floor you'll find a guest room/office with built in bookcases that could be removed for more expansive bedroom space. A hall bath with tub and washer/dryer rounds out this floor. Push the elevator button again and on the top level you'll find two bedrooms and two baths. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bath with shower and also a large deck! This is where you can really relax and lounge in privacy while enjoying getting some vitamin D. The hall bath room is a "wet room" designed for easy access for all abilities. The adjacent bedroom is steps away. All the bedrooms have had the carpet recently removed, revealing beautiful hardwood floors! And large closets abound in all rooms.
Lastly the lowest level has a spacious, dry unfinished basement which is also conveniently accessed by the elevator.
This home has been lovingly maintained by the original owners with updates throughout their tenure. It has been designed so people with all physical abilities can use the home, making it perfect for flexible living. Whether you're looking for a turn-key home that you can "lock and leave" or new city living in a private location, this home could be the one! This home is move-in ready and awaiting just a few of your personal touches. Make your showing tour today!...
