Property Description
Welcome to 13 E Weald Avenue in the Porter Square community of Bear, Delaware. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath split-level offers a finished lower level, an attached 1-car garage, a fenced backyard, and a list of updates already taken care of, so you can settle in instead of tackling projects. Inside, the windows have been replaced and carry a lifetime transferable warranty. The kitchen features granite countertops, and the home is kept comfortable year-round with a heat pump and central air. The finished lower level adds flexible square footage with brand-new carpet backed by a 5-year warranty. Use it as a second living room, home theater, game room, home office, gym, or hobby space. The layout gives you separation between the main living level and the lower level, a setup that works well when more than one thing is happening at once. Out back, a maintenance-free rear deck overlooks the fully fenced yard, with a large storage shed (added in 2020) for lawn equipment, tools, and outdoor gear. The lot is approximately 0.18 acres, and the attached garage provides covered parking plus extra storage. The location puts everyday needs within easy reach. Glasgow Park is minutes away with paved walking trails, a fenced dog park, a fishing pond, tennis and basketball courts, a skate bowl, a sensory playground, a sledding hill, rental pavilions, and a farmers market. Lums Pond State Park, Delaware's largest freshwater pond, offers kayaking, canoeing, disc golf, camping, and the 8-mile Little Jersey Trail, plus the Go Ape Zipline and Adventure Park. The Michael N. Castle C&D Canal Trail provides a flat multi-use path toward Delaware City. Shopping and dining are close by at Peoples Plaza (Routes 40 and 896), Fox Run Shopping Center, and Governor's Square, with Christiana Mall just up the road. Delaware has no state or local sales tax, and the 2025 annual property tax on this home was $3,719 per county records, lower than much of the surrounding region. ChristianaCare Christiana Hospital, Delaware's only Level I trauma center, is in nearby Newark. The home is located in the Christina School District. Commuters have US 40 (Pulaski Highway) and DE 896 right at the doorstep, with quick access to DE Route 1 and I-95 at Christiana Mall (Exit 4A) and I-295 to the Delaware Memorial Bridge. Newark, Wilmington, Philadelphia, and Baltimore are all easy drives. Built in 1983 with approximately 1,249 sq ft above grade and about 600 finished sq ft below grade per county records, this home pairs move-in-ready updates with a location that keeps parks, shopping, hospitals, and major routes close.
