61 Ivy Rd

Ivy Road is a peaceful, quiet, tree-lined street in the city of Wilmington in The Highlands neighborhood. Rockford Park and the Delaware Art Museum are within steps of the front door of this historic, desirable townhome. Trolley Square and the Brandywine River are also just a short walk away. Parking is a breeze with an on-street spot and an additional reserved spot in the rear lot which is exclusively for Ivy Road residents. This 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath home offers 3+ floors of cozy and flexible living space. With a welcoming entrance on the side of the home, you and your guests will enter into a generous foyer that overlooks the bright, sun-filled living room. Hardwood flooring throughout, curved staircases, skylights and a brick fireplace add to the charm of this beautiful home. On the lower level, a versatile room with an exposed stone wall and built-in shelving could easily be used as an office, a sitting room, or set up as a bar. With a powder room and the washer and dryer also on this level, everything is convenient! From the living room, you can step out into the ultra-private backyard which has a slate patio, in-ground and raised beds that are filled with beautiful, low maintenance plants, and there's still plenty of room for lounge furniture and an outdoor dining table. Across from one of the two bedrooms there is a huge, walk-in closet (with windows!). The second bedroom is on the upper level and is very spacious - it even has room for a separate sitting area, which could also be set up as a home office. This home is not only delightful, but it also benefits from less through traffic because it is located towards the end of Ivy Road. Welcome home to carefree, charming, city living!
