Welcome to 39 Villanova Ct – A Private Retreat in the Sought-After Academy Hill Community of Newark, Delaware within the 5 mile radius of Newark Charter School. Tucked away on a private lot , this elegant home offers timeless style, thoughtful updates, and plenty of space for everyday living and entertaining. As you step into the foyer, you're greeted by a sweeping curved staircase and beautiful custom woodworking, setting the tone for the quality throughout. To your left, French glass doors open into a sun-drenched home office, featuring vaulted ceilings and a striking Palladian window. Just across the hall, the formal dining room provides an inviting space for hosting both special occasions and casual dinners. The updated kitchen is a true centerpiece, boasting newer white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, a generous center island, and a pantry for extra storage. Sliding glass doors lead directly to the spacious deck—perfect for relaxing or entertaining—overlooking a lush, private backyard. Adjacent to the kitchen, the cozy family room features a gas fireplace as its focal point, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Also on the main level, you’ll find a convenient laundry room and a stylish half bath. One of the home’s standout features is the rare first-floor primary suite. This private retreat includes a sitting area, two walk-in closets, and a luxurious en suite bath with a soaking tub, separate stall shower, and double vanities. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms share a well-appointed hall bath. (Note: The sellers combined two smaller bedrooms to create one large space—easily converted back to a fifth bedroom if desired.) The full, unfinished basement provides ample storage and houses the home's mechanical systems and there is even a walk in attic. Recent updates include fresh interior paint, and professionally cleaned carpets—making this home truly move-in ready. Don’t miss your opportunity to own this beautifully maintained home in one of Newark’s most desirable neighborhoods. Schedule your tour 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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
