2001 Kentmere Pl

Welcome to this stunning 4-bedroom, 2 full bath, 2 half bath stately center hall brick home with approximately 5800 SF of finished living space! Tucked away in a private setting in Wilmington's desirable Rockford Park neighborhood, this home has been impeccably cared for and renovated from top to bottom. Just steps away from the Delaware Art Museum, Rockford Park, Trolley Square, and downtown, this location offers an abundance of privacy. The plantings and gardens surrounding the home are thoughtfully designed featuring a variety of specimen trees and shrubs. The gorgeous foyer is welcoming to all with its marble floor and curved staircase. Turn right and step into the formal living room with a gas fireplace or turn left into the spacious dining room to entertain family and guests. The newly renovated kitchen (2022) features custom, inset wood cabinets with a suite of Thermador appliances including a counter-depth concealed refrigerator, gas range with hood vent, dishwasher, and microwave. The countertops, backsplash, and island are Quartz. With two pendant island lights, recessed lighting, and new hardwood floors, this room is the heart of the home. Adjacent to the kitchen is the renovated laundry room with custom, inset wood cabinets, a new hardwood floor, and a new front-load, top-of-the-line GE washer and dryer. As you enter the amazing family room, you'll find a wet bar for entertaining with a parquet hardwood floor, custom cabinets, granite countertop, and an under-counter refrigerator. With its high tray ceiling, the family room gas fireplace makes cool nights cozy and perfect for all types of gatherings - holidays, family game night, and watching your favorite sports teams. Other features include the new hardwood floor, custom built-in wooden bookcases, and abundance of windows. Accessed through the kitchen pocket French door or family room French door, the lovely year-round sunroom highlights a tile floor, cathedral ceiling, and two walls of windows that overlook the private backyard. Continue to the outside entertaining area, which features a stone and brick fountain and sitting walls with a limestone patio floor surrounded by lush landscaping. The first-floor powder room is large with room for a piece of furniture and includes a chandelier as a finishing touch. After ascending the elegant, curved staircase onto the expansive landing, one enters the primary bedroom to find a relaxing oasis. Renovated in 2017, the double doors open into a spacious room with natural light overlooking the front gardens. The ensuite bathroom renovations include a new ceramic tile floor, closet and dressing table, custom vanity with dual sinks and a Quartz counter, walk-in shower, and water closet. The bathroom is plumbed for a bathtub, which can easily be added. The carpeted walk-in closet spans the width of the 2-car garage featuring its own Mitsubishi split-system cooling and heating (2022) and custom, built-in closet organizer system. Three other bedrooms are situated around the large hall landing and share a renovated bathroom with a tile floor, skylight, custom cabinets and dual sinks with a bathtub and shower (2014). The lower level provides ample additional living space. Whether playing pool or ping pong or watching movies with friends, this open-finished space has lots of possibilities. It is updated with recessed lighting and luxury vinyl tile flooring. The renovated bathroom can be expanded to include a shower. There are two storage rooms, a sump pump closet, an HVAC closet, plus a room that is perfect for exercise equipment, an office or craft room. There is a walk-out at the rear of the home. Finally, the two-car garage deserves special mention. A second garage bay was added to create a two-car garage with an epoxy-painted floor (2022). A rear garage door allows access to the backyard. Enter the home from the garage and step into the laundry room providing easy entry. This home is one to make your own!
