What's around 665 Old Porter Rd

Single Family Residence, Contemporary - BEAR, DE

Grand retreat! Wooded areas flank either side of the stretch of Old Porter Rd. that leads to white gated fence marking entrance to secluded 3/4 BRs/2 Bath custom-built ranch on 2.7 acres! Driveway lined with tall evergreens winds past pond and 2 acres of sprawling flat front lawn, and ultimately to solid cedar/stone contemporary with 2-car turned garage and covered front entry. Country charm blends with grace and style in this open, light-infused home nestled in serene setting. Handsome wood-trimmed elongated windows and doorways are throughout, offering rustic yet modern ambiance. Note new wide-planked Cherry Sienna floating hardwood floors in LR/FR, DR and hallway (2017), new water heater (2015) and new furnace (2011). Tile foyer transitions to rich hardwood floors and continues in sunken, 2-story LR/FR where stunning, custom-built solid stone FP strikes dramatic chord. Exposed ceiling beams add dimension, while skylights and cherry wood balcony in loft add light and interest. Glass sliders on back wall provide views to private back yard (remaining .76 acres) and wooded area, and access to brick patio where picnics and parties are a sure bet. Step up to connected DR with triple window on back wall, allowing one to appreciate seasonal changes of nature outside. DD lead into expansive dine-in kitchen, which can also be accessed from foyer, and features oak cabinets, wood countertop and angled tile floor. Appreciate charming highlights such as deep inset tiled garden window, where herbs are bound to thrive, and corner countertop accented in white tile. Room for both table and hutch, which fits feel of the home! Glass sliding doors lead to patio, creating circular flow for entertaining. From kitchen access garage with pull-down storage and huge LL where wine cellar/storage, work bench and W & D hookup reside. Also, easy to finish as another entire level of living! Hallway on main floor leads to 2 secondary carpeted BRs, (11 x 10) and (12 x 10), and hall bath. 1st floor master suite (18 x 13) offers great getaway with full master bath and large walk-in closet. Unwind on private deck with porch swing, where morning coffee is a must. Wood steps lead up to delightful 24 x 17 carpeted loft, with overlook to LR/FR. Apex-style windows, together with 2 skylights, create bright and airy space! Style as 4th BR or rec room/computer nook/ exercise area. Minutes to I-95 and Rt. 40 plus nearby to parks, playgrounds and Lums Pond State Park. Beauty in Bear!
