Property Description
Welcome to 700 Bullen Drive, an exceptional property situated on a beautifully landscaped 1.05 acre lot in the highly sought after Grande View Farms community of northern Middletown! Offering approximately 4,903 square feet of finished living space, separate living quarters, extraordinary privacy, and tremendous potential, this unique property presents an opportunity rarely found in today's market. Surrounded by towering mature trees, established gardens, and lush landscaping, the property offers a peaceful, secluded setting in one of the area's most desirable established neighborhoods. With no HOA or deed restrictions reported, Grande View Farms is known for its expansive homesites, distinctive properties, and natural beauty. Located within the highly regarded Appoquinimink School District, recognized among Delaware's best, the home offers convenient access to Routes 1 and 13, shopping, dining, Whitehall, and the Village of Bayberry, while remaining comfortably removed from the bustle of central Middletown. Inside, the home features approximately 3,675 square feet of above grade finished living space, plus an additional 1,228 finished square feet in the lower level. The versatile floor plan includes five bedrooms and four full bathrooms, including the separate apartment. Two first floor bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite, offer convenient main level living. Additional highlights include generous gathering spaces, an open kitchen, fireplace, freestanding stove, and two additional upstairs bedrooms with a full bathroom. One of the property's standout features is its separate lower level apartment with a private exterior down stairs entrance, offering exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, extended family, guest accommodations, or potential rental income. Additional unfinished space beneath the garage provides even further opportunities for storage, recreation, or future improvements, an entire second apartment unit even, perhaps? Outside, the incredible backyard features mature trees, beautiful landscaping, and a massive elevated deck perfect for entertaining or relaxing in the shade. Below, the walkout basement leads to a screened patio complete with a hot tub, creating another inviting outdoor retreat. Additional features include an oversized side entry two car garage, expansive driveway, storage shed, and solar panel system with the potential to offset electricity costs. Originally built in 1992, the home requires significant cosmetic TLC, updating, and some repairs, but offers tremendous potential for buyers with the vision to make it their own. The property is being sold strictly AS IS, with major inspections already completed and reports available for review. The lower level apartment was completed without permits, and public record square footage may be inaccurate. Buyers should verify all measurements and intended uses. With its exceptional setting, substantial living space, flexible accommodations, and desirable location, 700 Bullen Drive offers a rare opportunity to create something truly special.
