Welcome to 17 Kensington Lane located just minutes from downtown Newark, Delaware. Everything here has been updated including the kitchen, the baths, the flooring, the paint, and even the roof. There is nothing left to do here except move in! This completely updated modern contemporary ranch home has something that appeals to everyone. The curb appeal will impress you with the low, sleek look of the mid-century modern design. This is a really cool house that pleases the eye. At the door you are greeted by updated flooring and paint throughout. As you look around you will see there is nothing left to be done here except move in. The open floor plan is flooded with natural light from the wall of windows overlooking the rear yard. The kitchen here is new and completely modern. You won’t find layout or design that is more pleasing than the one here. The open room is filled up with white cabinets, stainless appliances and solid surface countertops. The gourmet in the family will never want to leave this kitchen! The living room is generously sized and is the perfect spot for relaxing after work or entertaining family and friends. This space simply does it all. The primary bedroom is a great size with a lot of closet space. The primary bath has been updated with the latest features to ensure you feel pampered every day. There are two other bedrooms and another completely updated full bath right down the hall. Out back, the yard is flat and open. You will love spending time out here this summer barbecuing with family and friends. Did you notice that this property backs up to about 145 acres of farm land owned by the University of Delaware? You won’t have any neighbors out back at this property. Finally, the driveway is wide and leads you right to a carport where you can keep your car out of the weather. Come see this one today!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
