Description
Welcome to one of the best-located homes in The Ridge! This beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath, end-unit townhome with a 2-car garage backs to peaceful woods and private land—offering rare privacy and a truly serene setting. The townhome boasts 1,650 square ft. above ground with an estimated 700+ square ft. basement, for total estimated square footage of over 2,350. Step outside to a large, renovated rear deck, perfect for morning coffee or evening gatherings, all surrounded by lush landscaping and lovingly tended gardens. Inside, every detail has been taken care of. Fully renovated in 2019—including the kitchen and bathrooms—the home has continued to receive major upgrades since then: a new roof, windows, air conditioning, water heater, and freshly painted exterior (2025), to name a few. Over $70,000 in upgrades & improvements have been made since the 2019 renovation. Unique architectural touches elevate the interior space, from vaulted ceilings and a gracefully curved staircase to two fireplaces, including one in the primary suite. The spacious primary suite also features a walk-in closet and a jetted tub for a spa-like retreat. But it’s not just the home that shines—the Ridge community is loaded with amenities! Take a dip in the sparkling community pool, get a workout in at the on-site gym, meet neighbors at the clubhouse, or enjoy friendly competition on the tennis/pickleball court, just steps away. The homes location in the Pike Creek/Newark area is a bonus, with easy access to local attractions such as White Clay Creek Park, The University of Delaware and shopping venues such as Lantana Square in Hockessin. Whether you're relaxing indoors, entertaining on the deck, or exploring the neighborhood, this home has that special something. Come see why this is one of the most desirable homes in The Ridge—you may never want to leave! Please see documents for a list of updates.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
