Description
Welcome to in-town living at its finest! Located within the town limits of charming Milton, Delaware, this amazing single-family home is just a short stroll from all that downtown has to offer—from local dining and shops to the library and Milton Memorial Park. Sitting on an incredible double-depth lot, this property is truly a rare gem in a historic town where space is at a premium. The extra-deep lot offers ample parking, room for a detached garage or accessory dwelling unit, and still leaves space to relax and enjoy the outdoors. A backyard shed is included—perfect for storing your beach gear, bikes, or lawn equipment. Step inside and fall in love with the newly re-sanded hardwood flooring that flows beautifully throughout the entire home. The first floor offers an oversized living room, a separate dining area, a full bath, laundry area, and a well-appointed kitchen. Just off the mudroom, you’ll find access to an unfinished basement that provides endless storage potential. Upstairs, the second floor features the primary bedroom, two guest bedrooms, and a charming full bathroom with a clawfoot tub/shower. A fourth bedroom—or the perfect home office—adds even more flexibility. Don’t miss the massive attic, which could be finished into additional living space or kept as valuable storage. If sitting on the front porch and waving to your neighbors isn't your thing, then you'll love relaxing or entertaining on the spacious back deck in your private, fenced-in backyard. It’s the perfect space to gather with friends and family for a summer barbecue or unwind after a day in town. Located just two blocks from Irish Eyes, the Milton Public Library, and waterfront dining at Tequila Real, this home is also just steps from the beloved Milton Memorial Park, home of the Summer Concert Series and other community events. Whether you’re looking for a full-time residence or a charming in-town retreat, this home delivers space, character, and unbeatable walkability in the heart of Milton.

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.
