This spacious historic home has been expanded over the years to adapt to functional modern living. Tucked away on the desirable Brecks Lane in the heart of Greenville sits this 5 BR, 4.1 bath traditional-style home that retains much of its original charm and character. On over half an acre lot - it sits adjacent to common space, adding to the privacy and solitude. Enter the covered porch that wraps around the front and side of the house, into the welcoming foyer. To the right find a butler's pantry with drink fridge and powder room. Straight back enter into the large living room with fireplace and open sight-line into the family room and onto the screened porch. The living room features many classic elements such as wide plank original wood floors, dentil moldings, built-in shelving and glass pocket doors leading into the family room. At the front of the house sits a private office. To the left of the living room is the formal dining room with chair-rail moldings and bay window. Head into the large kitchen with walk-in pantry and laundry/mudroom with separate entrance with newly added portico. The family room sits off of the kitchen with fireplace and opens to a large, screened porch - perfect for taking in the stunning elevated views of the in-ground pool, small pond with fountain and well-maintained landscaping. Head up the turned staircase in the foyer to the second floor and find the large primary suite consisting of a large bedroom with vaulted ceiling, sitting area and full bath. An additional bedroom with private bath and 2 more bedrooms sharing a Jack-and-Jill bathroom complete the second level. The third floor consists of 2 additional rooms and a full bath. New roof installed 2023, systems updated throughout. This private lot is just steps from the Brandywine River, Rockford Park and Downtown Wilmington - however, it feels so much more remote! Enjoy the close proximity to all that the area has to offer. This property is being sold in "as is" condition.
