Prepare to be enchanted by this 3-bedroom, 2-bath rancher in the sought-after Harmony Crest community of Newark. As you approach the home, the beautifully stamped and colored concrete driveway and walkway make an immediate statement, setting the tone for what lies ahead. Inside, you’re greeted by a spacious and inviting living area featuring a large front window, vaulted ceilings, and hard wood floors that exudes warmth and character. The open kitchen, just steps away, is a true highlight with ceramic tile flooring, complementary style appliances, a decorative backsplash, and a peninsula island for extra workspace. Terra Bianca quartzite countertops, with their intricate patterns and veining, add a touch of elegance. The nearby pantry and laundry area ensure ample storage and convenience. Custom shelving in the closets provides additional organization throughout the home. The dining area and family room, featuring a free standing, cozy wood-burning stove, create the perfect spot for relaxation and family gatherings. The primary bedroom suite, complete with an en suite bath showcasing custom tiling and a walk-in closet with custom shelving, offers a peaceful retreat. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bath, also featuring custom tiling, complete the interior, offering comfort and charm throughout. Attic storage with pull-down steps ensures added practicality for stowing away seasonal items. But it’s the outdoors that truly makes this home special. Step outside into your own private oasis, where a thoughtfully landscaped, fenced-in yard awaits. Mature fruit trees, including fig and peach, dot the space, while colorful seasonal flowers brighten every corner. For the gardener, six raised garden beds and4 in ground beds provide the perfect environment for growing your favorites - a gardener's paradise! Two paved patios, connected by a partially covered wrap-around wood platform deck, create additional outdoor living space, ideal for entertaining or relaxing. The yard also boasts two 190 sq. ft. sheds, one equipped with electrical power, and an 8-foot gate that allows easy vehicle access for unloading gardening supplies or firewood. With a freshly painted interior (2024), newer windows, leased solar panels, and proximity to the popular Christiana Mall, White Clay Creek State Park, and major commuter routes like I-95, DE-1, and DE-273, this home is a true find. It’s more than just a place to live—it’s a place to thrive.

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.
