Property Description
Step inside to an inviting, flowing floor plan, solid hardwood floors throughout most of the home, and thoughtful updates reflecting meticulous care. French doors open to a bright living room with a three-panel window, ceiling fan, and track lighting. The adjoining dining room offers generous space for entertaining, chair rail detailing, a chandelier, and three windows overlooking the peaceful backyard. Another set of French doors leads toward the breakfast nook, sunroom, and expanded kitchen.
The expanded kitchen is a standout for its exceptional storage, with cherry cabinetry extending throughout the kitchen and breakfast area. Granite countertops, tile backsplash, LED lighting, and ceramic tile flooring complement the cabinetry. Appliances include a stainless steel Whirlpool French-door refrigerator, KitchenAid five-burner downdraft range installed in 2025, and dishwasher replaced in 2024. A sink with pull-down sprayer completes the space; the breakfast nook seats four.
The family room features hardwood floors, a ceiling fan, and a cozy electric fireplace installed in 2016. A renovated first-floor full bathroom features an accessible shower. Nearby, the laundry/mudroom includes LG front-loading washer and dryer, cabinetry, a built-in spice rack, coat closet, and access to the garage and backyard. The sunroom addition, kitchen expansion, and Andersen windows (1999).
Upstairs, the generous primary suite enjoys natural light from three windows and offers a ceiling fan, two closets including a spacious walk-in, and a private bath with glass-enclosed shower, updated vanity, and decorative wallpaper. The hall offers a linen closet and renovated full bath with attractive tile detailing, tub/shower combination, spacious vanity, and window. Three additional generously sized bedrooms provide ample closet space; two have ceiling fans. Both upstairs baths were renovated (2023), when hardwood flooring was also installed in the sunroom and den.
The partially finished basement offers a comfortable recreation room for movie nights, hobbies, or entertaining, plus two storage closets. The unfinished section includes built-in shelving, utility sink, sump pump with water-powered backup, gas furnace, and whole-house central vacuum system, with ample storage and room for workshop projects. Additional improvements include a water heater replaced (2023) and approximately $8,000 in energy-efficiency upgrades completed in 2016 following an energy assessment.
From the sunroom, step into a spectacular backyard retreat featuring mature greenery, garden beds, privacy fencing, birdhouses, and winding walkways leading to a peaceful sitting area. The expansive newer Trex deck, complete with built-in seating, is ideal for outdoor dining, summer barbecues, or relaxing amid the natural surroundings. Stonework, a convenient clothesline, and a separate outdoor storage area add to the enjoyment.
Other major improvements include roof replacements on the house, garage, and shed in (2024) and insulated garage doors installed (2025) Convenient to downtown Newark's vibrant Main Street, the University of Delaware, shopping, restaurants, and White Clay Creek State Park's scenic trails, 6 Woodshaw Road combines generous living spaces, exceptional storage, and beautiful outdoor living in Timber Creek.
