Property Description
Welcome to 397 Nimitz Rd, nestled in the desirable WhiteOak Farms community of Dover. This charming 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath single-family home blends comfort, convenience, and versatility—making it an ideal choice for first-time buyers or anyone seeking a smart investment.
Perfectly situated near major shopping, dining, and commuter routes, you'll enjoy quick access to both Route 13 and Route 1—Delaware's primary north-south corridors—making daily errands and commuting a breeze.
Inside, you'll find hardwood flooring throughout most of the home and a layout filled with possibilities. The spacious living room greets you with an abundance of natural light, especially in the morning, making it an ideal spot to enjoy your coffee or dive into a good book. Just off the living room is a dedicated dining room—perfect for hosting dinners or converting into a home office or hobby space.
The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and a window overlooking the backyard, making meal prep feel even more enjoyable. Adjacent to the kitchen is a cozy family room complete with a wood-burning fireplace, perfect for relaxing evenings or casual get-togethers. A convenient powder room and large walk-in closet sit nearby—offering the option to convert the closet into a walk-in pantry, storage nook, or even a compact workstation.
Step through the family room into the screened-in back porch—an ideal extension of your living space, ready for summer lounging, quiet evenings, or game nights. The fully fenced backyard includes a fire pit and provides the perfect space for pets, play, or outdoor entertaining.
Downstairs, the partially finished basement expands your living options. A bar and bonus room can easily be used as a game room, home gym, guest area, or office. The unfinished side offers generous storage and includes a workshop area for DIY projects or crafts.
Additional highlights include a newer A/C Unit (just a few years old) and a 1-car garage with a rear door to the backyard. This home is also walking distance to Dover Park, which is going through renovations to enhance the play areas, and Silver Lake Park which is less than a mile west and offers boating access and plenty of walking trails
With its flexible layout, prime location, and inviting charm, 397 Nimitz Rd offers endless potential to make it your own. Schedule your private tour today and see everything this home has to offer!
