Property Description
Welcome to the George Swartz House—where historic charm meets modern-day comfort in the heart of Port Penn. This beautifully restored 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers over 1,500 square feet of thoughtfully renovated living space, including a potential fourth bedroom or flex space on the third floor.
Fully renovated in 2020, this home seamlessly blends timeless details with stylish upgrades. Step onto the welcoming covered front porch and immediately feel the character that defines this special property. Inside, you'll find durable LVP flooring throughout the main level, exposed wood beams in the open-concept living room, and a spacious dining area adjacent to the updated kitchen complete with granite countertops and plenty of room to gather. A full bathroom on the main level is accented with a charming barn door, adding just the right touch of rustic elegance. Your oversized laundry room ideal for additional storage is on the first floor as well.
Upstairs, three bright bedrooms share a full bath, with the primary bedroom offering serene views to start your mornings right. Venture up to the third floor to discover a bonus space to be a potential fourth bedroom, home office, studio, or additional storage.
Outside, enjoy an oversized composite deck surrounded by a fully vinyl-fence, perfect for privacy, pets, and play. The one-car garage offers added convenience for off-street parking and storage.
Located in the quaint and historic town of Port Penn. Just an 8-minute walk to the scenic Port Penn Wetlands Trail—a peaceful escape ideal for birdwatching, hiking, and soaking in Delaware's natural beauty. You're also just minutes from nearby riverwalks, parks, and boat ramps—making this a true haven for outdoor enthusiasts.
Flood insurance is required due to the home's close proximity to the water, but the lifestyle this location offers is well worth it.
Don't miss your chance to own a truly unique property filled with warmth, character, and modern conveniences all wrapped up in a picturesque setting!!
