Property Description

Opportunity awaits at 56 Woodward Drive, ideally situated on a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought-after Wood Creek community near Hockessin and the Pennsylvania state line. Backing to preserved woodlands, this property offers a rare sense of peace, privacy, and serenity, with tranquil wooded views that create a relaxing retreat from the everyday. The home features three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, a formal living room and dining room, an eat-in kitchen, and a spacious family room highlighted by a wood-burning fireplace. The finished walkout basement expands the living space with a recreation room, private office, abundant storage, and a rough-in for an additional full bathroom with a shower. Outdoor living is enhanced by a two-level wraparound deck overlooking the peaceful woodland backdrop, along with a lower-level patio accessible from the walkout basement. Whether enjoying quiet mornings, evening sunsets, or the natural surroundings, the setting offers exceptional potential for creating a private outdoor escape. Adding to the home’s appeal, several major systems have been replaced within the past five years, including the roof, HVAC system, and water heater. This property still requires substantial cleaning, renovations, and updating, making it an excellent opportunity for investors, contractors, or buyers with vision who are ready to restore and transform a well-located home. Priced to reflect its current condition and encourage strong buyer interest, this is a chance to create significant value in an established community. Bring your imagination and see the possibilities.
