About this home

Single Family · Built 1871 · Historic

Welcome to Historic Hockessin. An inviting wrap-around front porch greets visitors and offers the perfect spot to sit and relax. Gracious, yet comfortable living is immediately evident upon entry into this period adorned one-hundred-and-forty-year-old farmhouse. You will be captivated by the harmonious blend of late nineteenth century country charm and decorous splash of modern day conveniences found in the masterfully renovated kitchen. Equally charming, the spacious living and dining rooms are the perfect venue for entertaining family and friends. Additional highlights include re-finished hardwood flooring, handsome millwork, numerous built-ins and ample storage space as well as generously sized windows that allow streaming sun to brighten rooms and cast soothing shadows throughout the day. The tucked-away location, thoughtful architecture, and delightful exterior amenities create a tranquil retreat you'll never want to leave.
