Description

Welcome to 301 Meriden Dr, the home you've been waiting for. Located in the highly sought-after community of Fairfield, this home offers a prime location just minutes from University of Delaware campus and Newark's favorite dining and shopping spots, while just far enough away to preserve the tranquility and peacefulness of an established, quiet community. The large corner lot offers mature trees and lush landscaping that accents the classic brick exterior. Single story living feels like a luxury in this four bedroom home where from the moment you enter through the front door, the hardwood floors and large entry hall closet will make you feel right at home. The family room glows with natural light during the day, and in the evenings, by the light of the stunning fireplace. The kitchen offers stunning elevated cabinetry with granite countertops, upgraded stainless steel appliances, and a view of the dreamy rear yard and deck. Just off the kitchen, you'll find extra living space in the form of a massive den as well as a spacious dining room. The primary suite has its own full bathroom, and down the hall three more generously sized bedrooms share a full hall bathroom. One of the bedrooms is currently being utilized as a main floor laundry space due to owner preference, and there is still a hook up in the basement should your family choose to utilize it as a bedroom. The basement also offers a large finished space as well as a large unfinished workshop area. At an incredible price point and a location that can't be beat, this house will check the boxes for so many buyers - schedule your tour before it's too late!
